Key result
Type:
relative density
Density:
ca. 0.934 other: (no units, relative density)
Temp.:
20 °C
Remarks on result:
other: The relative density (d20/20 ) correlated to the water density at 20°C was automatically calculated by the equipment. The mean is given as result.

Results

The results of the relative density measurements (d20/20) are given in the following table.

Determination 1

Determination 2

0.9336

0.9338

 

Mean value of= 0.9337 ±0.0001

Conclusions:
The test substance is less dense than water.
Using the oscillating density meter method, the density was 0,9337 ± 0,0001 at 20°C.
Executive summary:

The relative density of the test substance was determined according to OECD 109/EU A3 guideline, using the oscillating density meter method. Two determinations were performed at 20°C and the mean value of =0,9337 ± 0,0001 was retained.

Description of key information

The test substance is less dense than water.

Using the oscillating density meter method, two determinations were performed at 20°C and the mean value 0,9337 ± 0,0001 was retained.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
0.934

Additional information

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