Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The two determinations are within the validity criteria of the method: (less than 1% of difference).

No additional determination was performed.

 

Conclusions:
The density of the test item has been determined to be 945.8 kg/m3 at 20.0 +/- 0.1°C (mean of two determinations).
The relative density of the test item was determined to be D204 = 0.946.
Executive summary:

The study was performed in order to determine the density of test item according OECD 109, resp. EU A.3 guideline, using a pycnometer.

Description of key information

The density of the test item has been determined to be 945.8 kg/m3 at 20.0 +/- 0.1°C (mean of two determinations).

The relative density of the test item was determined to be D204 = 0.946.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
0.946

Additional information

A fully reliable experimental study, conducted according to OECD 109/ EU A3 guideline is available.

It is considered as a key study, and the result is retained as key data.
