Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The relative density of the test item was determined to be 1.79 using the density of water at 4 °C (0.999972 g/cm³).

Description of key information

relative density: 1.79 at 20.0 °C (OECD 109)

Key value for chemical safety assessment
