The mean density of the test item was 3857 kg/m3.

Mean relative density: 3.857

Standdard deviation: 0.074

Coefficient of variation: 1.92%

The calibrated volume of the pycnometer was 25.4895 cm3.

Conclusions:
The density of the test item is determined to be 3857 kg/m3 and the relative density is 3.857.
Executive summary:

The density of the test item was determined according to OECD Guideline 109 and EU Method A.3. The determination of the relative density was performed with the pycnometer method. The density was calculated from the difference in weight between the full pycnometer and the empty pycnometer and its volume. The density of the test item is determined to be 3857 kg/m3 and the relative density is 3.857.

Description of key information

Key study: OECD 109. The density was determined to be 3857 kg/m3 and the relative density is 3.857.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
