The density of water at 200C is 1.000 g/ml. The deviation of 0.003% of the calibration data is within the limits of determination. So the pycnometer has the correct volume.

Conclusions:
The relative density of Paste of 48.7% Bis(2,4-dichlorobenzoyl) peroxide in 50.7% polydimethylsiloxane is 1.212.
Executive summary:

The relative density of Di(2,4-dichlorobenzoyl) peroxide, paste, 50% in silicone oil was determined in triplicate according to OECD Guideline 109, 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 Paste of 48.7% Bis(2,4-dichlorobenzoyl) peroxide in 50.7% polydimethylsiloxaneis 1.212.
