Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusions:
Relative density of test item compared to water was 0.830 when tested in a pycnometer test at 20 +/- 0.5 degrees C.
Executive summary:

A test using the pycnometer method, designed to be compatible with Method A3 “Relative Density” of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 yielded a value of 0.830 at 20.0 degrees C +/- 0.5 degrees C for the test article.
