Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Method Modified pycnometer

Chemical identity & purity Tall oil, maleated, 100%

Estimated accuracy Weight: ±0.0005 g

Volume: ±0.1 mL

RPD between duplicates: 0.02%

Density 1073.0 ±0.22 kg/m3 (mean ± range of 2 measurements)

Conclusions:
The density was determined to be 1073.0 kg/m³ as per the Pycnometer (modified) method of OECD Test No. 109.
Executive summary:

The density of test item tall oil, maleated was determined using the Pycnometer (modified) method of OECD Test No. 109.

The test item is a dark viscous liquid at room temperature. In order to transfer it to the pycnometer, the material was warmed slightly until it could be carefully poured into the pycnometer. Exactly 4 mL was transferred into the cylinder (pre-tared). The material was tapped to remove any entrained air and allowed to cool. The cylinder plus contents were weighed. The process was repeated with a second replicate

sample.

The temperature at which the test was conducted was noted. The weight was measured with at least 0.1% accuracy. The experiment was conducted in duplicate.

The bulk density was calculated in g/mL, and reported as kg/m³.

The density was determined to be 1073.0 kg/m³ as per the Pycnometer (modified) method of OECD Test No. 109.
