Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
relative density
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
From September 23,2008 to September 29,2008
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: GLP with certificate.The study is clear and complete in any parts. The substance is well identified, the method is suitable for the substance.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.3 (Relative Density)
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:

Key result
Type:
relative density
Density:
ca. 0.89 g/cm³
Temp.:
20 °C

Temperature (°C) Density:(g/mL)
18 0.9986
19 0.9984
20 0.9982
21 0.9980
22 0.9978
23 0.9975
24 0.9973
25 0.9970

The relative density was calculated according to the following equation: D4=ps/pw

ps is the density of test item at room temperature

pw is the density of water at 4°C=0.9999

 determinations weight fatty acids (g) calculated density (g/cm^3
1 46.2342 0.8879
2 46.2255 0.8881
Mean 46.2298 0.8880
Conclusions:
The mean relative density of the test item is D(20°C/4°C)=0.8881 g/cm3
Executive summary:

The density of Fatty Acids C16 -C18 and C18 -unstd., Me esters has been measured according to Council Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A.3, by

Pycnometer method
