Relative density = density [kg/m3] / 999.975 [kg/m3] (density of water at 4°C)

 

The average density at 20°C of the test item was 1247.5 kg/m3 ± 0.1 kg/m3.

The average density at 41°C of the test item was 1237.1 kg/m3 ± 0.1 kg/m3.

 

The relative density at 20°C of the test item is 1.2475 ± 0.0001.

Conclusions:
The relative density at 20°C of test item was 1.2475 +/- 0.0002.
The relative density at 41°C of test item was 1.2371 +/- 0.0001.
Executive summary:

In this study (2012), the determination of the relative density of the test item was performed according to the Regulation (EC) n°440/2008, A.3: “Relative density”, May 2008 and to the OECD Guideline n° 109: “Density of liquids and solids”, adopted July, 27, 1995, using the oscillating densimeter. The results were the following:

The relative density at 20°C of test item is 1.2475 +/- 0.0002.

The relative density at 41°C of test item is 1.2371 +/- 0.0001.

Description of key information

The relative density of the reaction mass in solution in water (approximately at 36%) is 1.2475 at ca. 20°C.

The relative density of the dry reaction mass (as a powder form) is 2.068 at ca. 20°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Two reliable experimental key studies are available on the reaction mass of potassium trifluoromethanesulphinate and potassium trifluoroacetate as a powder form (pure) and in solution in water (approximately 36%). 

The studies were performed according to the OECD Testing Guideline 109 and under GLP.

The pure reaction mass of potassium trifluoromethanesulphinate and potassium trifluoroacetate (as a powder form) has a relative density of 2.068 at approximately 20°C.

The reaction mass of potassium trifluoromethanesulphinate and potassium trifluoroacetate in solution in water (at approximately 36%) has a relative density of 1.2475 at 20°C.
