Mean density ρ_PR for the two test series: 3.2384 g/cm³.

Conclusions:

The relative density at 20 °C and compared to water at 4 °C was determined to be: D=3.24 (20.0 °C).

Executive summary:

A study was conducted according to OECD TG 109, Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.3 and OPPTS 830.7300 to determine the relative density of the test item. The density was determined in six independent determinations - two runs with three measurements each. Using the pycnometer method the density was determined to be 3.2384 ± 0.0025 g/cm³ at 20 °C and the relative density 3.24 ± 0.01 with respect to water at 4 °C respectively. The standard deviation reflects the distinguished correlation of the individual determinations. No observations were made which cause doubt on the validity of the outcome of the study.

Additional information

A study was conducted according to OECD TG 109, Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 method A.3 and OPPTS 830.7300 to determine the relative density of the test item (reference 4.4-1). The density was determined in six independent determinations - two runs with three measurements each. Using the pycnometer method the density was determined to be 3.2384 ± 0.0025 g/cm³ at 20 °C and the relative density 3.24 ± 0.01 with respect to water at 4 °C respectively. The standard deviation reflects the distinguished correlation of the individual determinations. No observations were made which cause doubt on the validity of the outcome of the study.
