Results:

A measurement chamber with a volume of Vc= 7.8961 cm3and an expansion chamber with a volume of Vr= 6.0848 cm3 were used.

Two test series with different weights were performed at ambient temperature (20.3 °C). For results see Table 1 and Table 2.

Mean density rPR for the two test series: 1.2622 g/cm3

Relative density (compared to water at 4 °C) D4R: 1.26

Conclusions:
The relative density of the test item (compared to water at 4 °C) is D4R = 1.26 (20.3 °C)
Executive summary:

The relative density of the test item was determined in accordance with methods OECD 109 and EU A.3.

The relative density at ambient temperature (compared to water at 4 °C) was determined to be:

D4R = 1.26      (20.3 °C)

Description of key information

The relative density of the test item at ambient temperature (compared to water at 4 °C) was determined to be: D4R= 1.26 (20.3 °C; methods OECD 109 and EU A.3).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1.26
