Results:

A measurement chamber with a volume of Vc = 7.9837 cm3 and an expansion chamber with a volume of Vr = 6.1476 cm3 were used.

Two test series with different weights were performed at ambient temperature (20.0 °C). For results see Table 1 and Table 2.

Relative density (compared to water at 4 °C) D4R : 1.32 ± 0.01

 

 

Conclusions:
The relative density of the test item was determined to be 1.32
Executive summary:

The relative density of the test itemat ambient temperature (compared to water at 4 °C) was determined to be:


D4R = 1.32      (20.0 °C)

Description of key information

The density of the test item was determined according to the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method, A.3. Density of liquids and solids: Gas comparison pycnometer and according to the OECD test guideline, OECD 109 Density of liquids and solids.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1.32
