Any other information on results incl. tables

The individual measurements were obtained with an accuracy of < 0.02 g/cm³ for test 1 and test 3.

According to the guideline, the density of the test substance is given as the mean value.

Density of the test substance:

	Test 1	Test 2	Test 3	Mean
Density (g/cm^3)	2.324	2.347^1	2.314	2.32

¹This result was not used in the calculation of the mean density since difference with Test 1 and Test 3 was >0.02 g/cm³.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

A gas comparison pycnometer was used for the determination of the density and relative density of Lithium Bis(fluorosulfonyl)Imide.
The density of the test substance at 20ºC was 2.32 g/cm^3 (2.32 x 10^3 kg/m^3).
The relative density was 2.32.

Executive summary:

The density of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide was found to be 2.32 g/cm³ (2.32 x 10³ kg/m³) at 20ºC, relative density of 2.32; using a gas comparison pycnometer, designed to be compatible with Method A3 Relative Density of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008, Method 109 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995, and United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Product Properties Test Guidelines no. OPPTS 830.7300 of March 1998.
