Additional information

The density of test chemical was determined following OECD guideline OECD 109 according to pycnometer method. The density of the test substance was determined to be 1.0772 gm/cm3 at 20 °C and 977.0 hPa.

Based on available data from reliable sources, the density of test chemical was determined to be 1.079 – 1.082 g/cm³ at 25°C.

Based on available data from reliable handbook, the density of test chemical was determined in the range of 1.079 – 1.082 g/cm³ at 25°C.

Based on the data obtained from reliable source, the density of test chemical was determined to be 1.082 g/cm³ at 25 °C.

Thus based on the above all studies, it is observed that the density value ranges from 1.04 g/cm3 to 1.082 g/cm³ at 25 °C.
