Conclusions:
The density of the test item was calculated as 1.0228 ± 0.0012 g/cm3 at 20 ± 0.3 °C, which is the mean of two values ± the standard deviation.
Executive summary:

The study was performed in order to determine the density of test item according to OECD 109, resp. EU A.3 guideline, using a hydrostatic balance.

The density of test item was determined to be 1.0228 ± 0.0012 g/cm3 at 20 ± 0.3 °C.

Description of key information

The density of test item was determined to be 1.0228 ± 0.0012 g/cm3 at 20±0.3 °C.

This value is the mean of two independent determinations.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1.023

Additional information

A fully reliable experimental study, conducted according to OECD 109 /EU A3 guideline, using pycnometer, is available. It is considered as a key study, and the result is retained as key data.
