Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Accuracy checking

The calibration of the instrument was verified at 20.0 °C with cyclohexane as a reference substance just before the determinations. The results were: Cyclohexane: reference value: 0.779 g/mL; instrument reading: 0.779 g/mL.

The results are within the precision of the instrument (± 0.001 g/mL).

 

Density determination

The results obtained with test item at 20.0°C were: first sample: ρ = 0.962 g/mL; second sample: ρ = 0.962 g/mL. Average ρ = 0.962 g/mL or D204= 0.962. The estimated precision is: ± 0.001 g/mL.

 

No deviation from the guideline, study plan or standard operating procedure was observed.

Conclusions:
The density of test item was measured according to the OECD guideline No. 109 (oscillating densitometer method) and was determined to be 0.962 ± 0.001 g/mL at 20 °C.
Executive summary:

The density of test item was measured according to the OECD guideline No. 109 (oscillating densitometer method) and was determined to be 0.962 ± 0.001 g/mL at 20 °C.

Description of key information

The relative density of test item was determined to be 0.962 at 20°C.


This is a mean of two determinations.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
0.962

Additional information


A fully reliable experimental study, conducted according to a recognized OECD/EC method and under GLP, is available. It is considered as a key study.
