Executive summary:

Introduction


The relative density of the test substance was determined using a method designed to meet the requirements of the following guidelines:


 


 



  • Method A.3 Relative Density of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008 of 30 May 2008

  • Method 109 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 02 October 2012


 


 


Method


The determination was carried out by the gas comparison pycnometer method. The test system was as follows:


 



  •  Instrument: Multi-Pycnometer, Quantachrome, Syosset, N.Y., USA

  • Calibration Sphere: A stainless steel sphere with a known volume (Vcal = 56.559 cm3)

  • Gas: Helium


Results and Conclusion


The density of the test item has been determined to be 1.25 x 103 kg/m3 at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C. The test item relative density is 1.25.
