Method

Test methods: Pour density

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 chemical was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and according to the Pour density and tapped density of powders” recommended in The International Pharmacopoeia, Fourth Edition, 2014 using bulk density apparatus. The pour density and tapped density of test item is was determine to be 0.7813 g/cm³ and 0.9696 g/cm³ at 27.05°C and 978.5 hPa.
Executive summary:

The density of test chemical was determined following OECD Guideline 109 and according to the Pour density and tapped density of powders” recommended in The International Pharmacopoeia, Fourth Edition, 2014 using bulk density apparatus. The pour density and tapped density of test item is was determine to be 0.7813 g/cm³ and 0.9696 g/cm³ at 27.05°C and 978.5 hPa.
