Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Test No. Temperature [°C] Amount of test item [g] Average sample volume [cm³] Density [g/cm³]
1 20 7.79 5.40997 1.43994
2 20 7.85 5.39793 1.45426

The mean density of the test item at 20 °C is 1.447 g/cm³.The relative density is calculated by dividing the density of the test item by the density of water at 4 °C (0.9999750 g/cm³).

Conclusions:
Relative density: 1.45 at 20 °C
Executive summary:

The relative density of the substance was determined using the pycnometer method, according to the OECD guideline 109.

The density of solids is determined with a calibrated gas comparison pycnometer at a temperature of 20 ± 0.01 °C. By measuring the mass of the test item, the density is determined.

The mean density of the test item at 20 °C is 1.447 g/cm³. The relative density D420is calculated by dividing the density of the test item by the density of water at 4 °C (0.9999750 g/cm³).

Conclusion

Relative density: 1.45 at 20 °C
