Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusions:
The density of test item was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and according to theIS 4730 : 1994 (Reaffirmed 2010) – Method for Determination of Density of Liquids (First Revision) using glass pyknometer. The mean density of test item was determined to be 0.93g/cm³ at 20°C and 973.3 hPa.
Executive summary:

The density of test item was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and according to theIS 4730 : 1994 (Reaffirmed 2010) – Method for Determination of Density of Liquids (First Revision) using glass pyknometer. The mean  density of test item  was determined to be 0.93g/cm³ at 20°C and 973.3 hPa.

Additional information

The density of test item was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and according to theIS 4730 : 1994 (Reaffirmed 2010) – Method for Determination of Density of Liquids (First Revision) using glass pyknometer. The mean  density of test item  was determined to be 0.93g/cm³ at 20°C and 973.3 hPa.

On the basis of data modelling database, the density of test chemical was estimated to be 0.945±0.06 g/cm3 at 20°C and 101325 Pa.
