Qualifier:

no guideline followed

Principles of method if other than guideline:

Measurement in a graduated cylinder
Pass a quantity of powder sufficient to complete the test through a sieve with apertures greater than or equal to 1.0 mm, if necessary, to break up agglomerates that may have formed during storage; this must be done gently to avoid changing the nature of the material. Into a dry graduated cylinder of 100 mL (readable to 2 mL), gently introduce, without compacting, approximately 100 g of the test sample (m) weighed with 0.1 per cent accuracy. Carefully level the solid without compacting, if necessary, and read the unsettled apparent volume (V0) to the nearest graduated unit. Calculate the relative density in g per mL by the formula m/V0. Generally, replicate determinations are desirable for the determination of this property.
