Conclusions:
The density of the test item has been determined to be 911 kg/m3 at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C, with a relative density of 0.911.
Executive summary:

The density of the test item relative to water was determined to be 0.911 at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C by the pycnometer method, using a procedure designed to be compatible with Method A.3 Relative Density of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 109 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 02 October 2012.

Description of key information

The density of the test item, relative to water, was determined to be 0.911 at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C by the pycnometer method, using a procedure designed to be compatible with Method A.3 Relative Density of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 109 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 02 October 2012.
