Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The density of the test substance is determined to be 0.85 g/cm3 at 20°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
0.85

Additional information

The relative density was determined to be 0.848 at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C in the key study, using the pycnometer method, designed to be compatible with Method A3 Relative Density of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 109 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995. A density value of 0.85 g/cm3 at 20°C was also reported in a well-documented company study which meets generally accepted scientific principles. The original reference was not available for review and no further information is available. Consequently, the reliability of the data is with restrictions. In 2001 the American ACGIH reported a density value of 0.85 g/cm3 at 20°C. The result was sourced from a secondary source which has been subject to peer-review and which is recommended for use in chemical safety assessment by the ACGIH. The result is considered to be reliable. A density value of 0.87 g/cm3 at 20°C is sourced from a toxicological report but no further details are available. Therefore the reliability of this result is not assignable. However, the results from these studies support the result from the key study.
