Conclusions:
The density of the test substance was determined to be 0.432 g/mL by the pour method and 0.766 g/mL by the tap method.
Executive summary:

In a GLP guideline study, the bulk density of the test substance was determined by the pour and tap methods based on the procedures described in  OPPTS  830.7300, OECD TG 109, and EC method A3 and found to be 0.432 g/mL and 0.766 g/mL, respectively.

Description of key information

The density of the test substance, at 20 deg. Celsius, was determined to be 0.432 g/mL by the pour method and 0.766 g/mL by the tap method.
