Conclusions:
The relative density of dihexadecyl peroxodicarbonate powder (batch no.: 1011540230) is 1.035 with a standard deviation of 0.001.

Executive summary:

The relative density of dihexadecyl peroxodicarbonate was determined in triplicate according to DIN 51913 and in accordance with European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, Chapter R.7a, Endpoint specific guidance, May 2008.

The relative density of dihexadecyl peroxodicarbonate powder is 1.035 with a standard deviation of 0.001

Description of key information

The relative density of dihexadecyl peroxodicarbonate flakes is 1.020 and of dihexadecyl peroxodicarbonate powder is 1.035. The densities differ because of differences in physical appearance (flakes/powder) and purity.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
