Endpoint:
relative density
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
No data
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study without detailed documentation
Remarks:
The study was conducted according to OECD/EC guideline. The substance is adequately characterised with its purity. However validation applies with minor restrictions, due to missing experimental details.

None

Conclusions:
The substance is less dense than water.
Executive summary:

The relative density of the test substance was measured according to OECD 109 / EU A3 guideline, oscillating densitimeter method.

The relative density of test substance has been determined to be 0.925 at 20°C.

Description of key information

The substance is less dense than water.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
0.925

Additional information

A reliable experimental study, conducted according to a recognized OECD/EU method and under GLP, is available. Despite minor restrictions (due to missing experimental details/technical inaccuracy) it is considered as a key study. The result is retained as key data.
