Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Result of the density measurement

 Sample number Sample mass (g)  Sample volume (cm³)  Density (g/cm³)  Density (kg/m³) 
1 1.3266  0.5976  2.2199  2219.9 
1.5527  0.6952  2.2334  2233.4 
1.5008  0.6721  2.2329  2232.9 
 Mean          2228.7 
 Confidence interval (95%)          19.0 
 RSD %          0.3 

The measured density of the test item was 2228.7 ± 19.0 kg/m³ and the relative density (D204) is 2.23.

Conclusions:
The measured density of sample was 2228.7 ± 19.0 kg/m³ at 20 °C. The relative density of the sample at 20 °C to water at 4 °C is 2.23.
Executive summary:

The relative density test was carried out according to OECD Guideline No 109, EU Method A.3 and OPPTS 830.7300 under GLP compliance.

The test was performed at a temperature of 20 ± 0.5 °C. A known weight of the test item was placed in the sample cell and its volume determined by the density tester. The density of the test item was calculated from its weight and of the defined volume.

The measured density of the sample was 2228.7 ± 19.0 kg/m³ at 20 °C. The relative density of the sample at 20 °C to water at 4 °C is 2.23.

Description of key information

The relative density test was carried out according to OECD Guideline No 109, EU Method A.3 and OPPTS 830.7300 under GLP compliance.

The test was performed at a temperature of 20 ± 0.5 °C. A known weight of the test item was placed in the sample cell and its volume determined by the density tester. The density of the test item was calculated from its weight and of the defined volume.

The measured density of the sample was 2228.7 ± 19.0 kg/m³ at 20 °C. The relative density of the sample at 20 °C to water at 4 °C is 2.23.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
