Method

Test methods: Pour density and tapped density of

powders” recommended in

The International

Pharmacopoeia, Fourth

Edition, 2014

 

 

Principle of method

Pour Density:It is the ratio of known weight of test item and its volume in graduated

glass cylinder.

Tap Density: It is the

difference between the

volume of test item

measured before & after tapping in the graduated glass cylinder.

Conclusions:
The density of test item Methylammonium chloride (CAS No. 593-51-1)was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and according to the Test methods: Pour density and tapped density of powders” recommended in The International Pharmacopoeia, Fourth Edition, 2014 using bulk density apparatus .The mean pour density and tapped density of test item is was determined to be 0.4886 g/cm3 and 0.5284 g/cm3 at 26.9°C and 979.3 hPa.
Executive summary:

The density of test item Methylammonium chloride (CAS No. 593-51-1)was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and according to the Test methods: Pour density and tapped density of powders” recommended in The International Pharmacopoeia, Fourth Edition, 2014 using bulk density apparatus .The mean pour density and tapped density of test item is was determined to be 0.4886 g/cm3 and 0.5284 g/cm3 at 26.9°C and 979.3 hPa.

Additional information

The density of test item Methylammonium chloride (CAS No. 593-51-1)was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and according to the Test methods: Pour density and tapped density of powders” recommended in The International Pharmacopoeia, Fourth Edition, 2014 using bulk density apparatus .The mean pour density and tapped density of test item is was determined to be 0.4886 g/cm3 and 0.5284 g/cm3 at 26.9°C and 979.3 hPa.

Based on prediction done using ACD/I-Lab 2.0,the density of chemical Methylammonium chloride was estimated to be 0.637 ± 0.06 g/cm3.

As the data from lab has K1 reliability and the test was performed using OECD guidelines which has the value of density as 0.4886 g/cm3(pour density) and 0.5284 (tapped density), thus considered as key study for the chemical safety assessment.
