Conclusions:
Under the study conditions, the density of the test substance at 20ºC was 1.14 g/cm3 (1.14 x 10^3 kg/m3) and the relative density was 1.14.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the density of the test substance using pycnometry according to OECD Guideline 109 and EU Method A.3. A pycnometer was used for the determination of the density and relative density of the test substance. Under the study conditions, the density of the test substance at 20ºC was 1.14 g/cm3 (1.14 x 10^3 kg/m3) and the relative density was 1.14 (Baltussen, 2008).
