Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusions:
The relative density of the test item at ambient temperature (compared to water at 4 °C) according to the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008 method A.3. and in the OECD 109 was determined to be D = 1.296.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted according to Regulation (EU) No. 440/2008 method A.3 and OECD Guideline No. 109 to determine the relative density of the test item. The density was determined using a gas comparison pycnometer. The relative density of the test item at ambient temperature (compared to water at 4 °C) was determined to be D4R= 1.296.

Description of key information

The relative density of the test item at ambient temperature (compared to water at 4 °C) according to the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008 method A.3. and in the OECD 109 was determined to be D4R= 1.296 (reference 4.4-1).
