Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
Conducted in accordance with ASTM D 4052 Standard Test Method for Density and Relative Density of Liquids by Digital Density Meter. This is a non-GLP method, and is considered to be a K2 study, on the basis that it is an accepted method and describes the density / specific gravity for oil based products accurately.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: ASTM D 4052 Standard Test Method for Density and Relative Density of Liquids by Digital Density Meter
Deviations:
no
Principles of method if other than guideline:
This test method covers the determination of the density or relative density of petroleum distillates and viscous oils that can be handled in a normal fashion as liquids at test temperatures between 15 and 35°C. Its application is restricted to liquids with vapor pressures below 600 mm Hg (80 kPa) and viscosities below about 15 000 cSt (mm2/s) at the temperature of test.
