Description of key information
The density of octan-1-ol is 0.8283 g/cm3 at 15.6°C
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Relative density at 20C:
- 0.828
Additional information
A density value of 0.8283 g/cm³ at at 15.6°C was determined for the substance using a digital density meter in accordance with ASTM D-4052 Test Method. The result is considered to be reliable and is selected as key study.
It is supported by a value of 0.83 at 20 -25°C, taken from a reliable handbook, and various consistent results from other reference sources.
Discussion of trends in the Category of C6-24 linear and essentially-linear aliphatic alcohols:
The relative density values are similar across the category. Values are consistently within the range 0.80 - 0.90 at ambient temperature.
