Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

* The pressurizing-expansion cycles are performed until 5 subsequent volume measurements have a relative standard deviation (RSD) of ≤ 0.2 %.


 


The mean density of the test item at 20 °C is 1.28695 g/cm³. The relative density D420 = 1.28 is calculated by dividing the density of the test item by the density of water at 4 °C (0.9999750 g/cm³).

Conclusions:
According to OECD Test Guidelines 109 (2012) and Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 Method A.3., the relative density D420 of the test item is 1.29 (at 20 °C, compared to water at 4 °C).

Description of key information

The relative density of the substance was calculated to be 1.29 (at 20 °C; compared to water at 4 °C).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
