Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

Density: 1.00 g/cm³ to 1.02 g/cm³ at 20 °C

(several materials were tested according to OECD 109, buoyancy method-hydrometer and DIN 51757, buoyancy method-hydrostatic balance)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1

Additional information

The reported values for density for Tar acids, xylenol fraction range from 1 g/cm³ to 1.024 g/cm³ at 20 °C. The density of substance will vary depending on the ratio of constituents present in the substance.
