Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Note: Standard deviation of relative density is 0.02 and was calculated from variation range.

Conclusions:
Relative density of the test substance, Ashes (residues), is 1.937.

Standard uncertainty of determination was estimated to 0.02 (*).
(*) Standard uncertainty is equal to a standard deviation.
