Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Endpoint:
relative density
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
From 05/03/2008 to 21/05/2008
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Remarks:
The study was conducted according to an internationally recognised method, and under GLP. The substance is adequately characterised with its isomers composition. Therefore full validation applies.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 109 (Density of Liquids and Solids)
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.3 (Relative Density)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)

Type:
relative density
Density:
0.896 other: relative density is dimensionless
Temp.:
20 °C

Determination 1: 0.896 at 20°C

Determination 2: 0.896 at 20°C

Determination 3: 0.896 at 20°C

Accuracy not specified.

Conclusions:
The substance is much less dense than water.
Executive summary:

The density of the test substance was determined under GLP according to OECD 109/EU A3 guideline, oscillating densitymeter method.

Three determinations were performed, the mean value was retained.

The relative density at 20°C was determined as 0.896.

Description of key information

The substance is much less dense than water.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
0.896

Additional information

A reliable experimental study, conducted according to a recognized EC method and under GLP, is available. Despite minor restriction due to missing isomers composition, it is considered as a key study. The result is retained as key data.
