Executive summary:

GUIDELINE

The determination was carried out by the pycnometer method, using a procedure designed to be compatible with Method A.3 Relative Density of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 109 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 02 October 2012.

RESULTS

The density of the test item was determined to be 987 kg/m3 at 20 ± 0.5 °C, with a relative density of 0.987.

Description of key information

 The relative density of the test item was assessed in accordance with OECD Guideline 109 and was determined to be 987 kg/m3 at 20 ± 0.5 °C, with a relative density of 0.987.
