Conclusions:
The density of Cas No 101316 -62-5 was determined as 0.972 g/mL at 20 Degs C.
Executive summary:

Information was provided by individual companies in the form of a letter stating the relevant information. The letter was submitted in company’s headed paper and signed by the individual responsible for the area of work. Given that the companies have practical expertise in handling the substance/stream this was deemed to be acceptable information. The density of Cas No 101316-62-5 was determined as 0.972 g/mL at 20 Degrees C.

Description of key information

Density data are available for 7 streams (13 studies) within this category ranging from 0.894 to 1.000.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
0.945

Additional information

The density values for streams in this category have been taken from lead-registrant data, proprietary data and certificates of analysis. The data will be read across to all category members.

Lead-registrant data (Intertek, 2018):

EC 266 -013 -0 (CAS#65996-79 -4): 0.9769 Kg/L;

EC 270 -737 -2 (CAS#68477-54-3): 0.9301 Kg/L;

EC 270 -790 -1 (CAS#68478-10-4): 0.9715 Kg/L;

EC 271 -138 -9 (CAS#68516-20-1): 0.9138 Kg/L;

EC 271 -213 -6 (CAS#68526-56-7): 0.9799 Kg/L;

EC 305 -586 -4 (CAS#94733-07-0): 0.9542 Kg/L;

EC 309 -867 -2 (CAS#101316-62-5): 0.9726 Kg/L.

Proprietary data:

CAS# 94733-07-0: 0.94 g/cm3 at 20°C (BASF, 2007a);

CAS# 101316-62-5: 0.96 (no unit) and 0.972 g/mL at 20°C (TS&D Rutgers Germany 2010b, c);

CAS# 68477-54-3 range 0.902 - 0.952 g/mL at 20°C (RÜTGERS 2010a, 2010b, 2010c), 0.926 - 1.000 (no units reported) (Dow Benelux 2010b), 0.8936 at 15.6°C (SIBUR, 2009).

The mean of the density values for the category is 0.945 (unitless) and this value has been used to complete the 'key value for the safety assessment'.
