Method for Determination of Density of Liquids (First Revision)

3.                   

Principle of Method

Determination of the mass at a given temperature of a volume of the material contained in a density bottle (pyknometer) and determination of the volume of the latter by determining the mass of the corresponding volume of water at the same temperature. The density is obtained by dividing the mass of material by its volume.

Conclusions:
The density of test chemical was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and according to the IS 4730 : 1994 (Reaffirmed 2010) using glass pyknometer. The mean density of test chemical was determined to be 0.9497 g/cm³ at 20°C and 977.4 hPa.
Executive summary:

The density of test chemical was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and according to the IS 4730 : 1994 (Reaffirmed 2010) using glass pyknometer. The mean  density of test chemical was determined to be 0.9497 g/cm³ at 20°C and 977.4 hPa.

Description of key information

The density of test substance oxacycloheptadec-10-en-2-one was determined following OECD guideline OECD 109 according to pycnometer method. The density of the test substance was determine to be 0.9497 g/cm3 at 20°C and 977.4 hPa.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The density of test substance oxacycloheptadec-10-en-2-one was determined following OECD guideline OECD 109 according to pycnometer method. The density of the test substance was determine to be 0.9497 g/cm3 at 20°C and 977.4 hPa.

Other supporitng studies also suggests that the density of chemical Hexadec-9-en-1,16 lactone was 0.953 -0.959 g/cm3 at 25 degree C.
