*The relative density D20/4 is the ratio between the measured density of the test substance at 20°C and the density of water at 4°C (= 0.99997 g/cm3). The relative density has no dimension.

Conclusions:
A relative density value of 0.966 at 20°C was determined for the substance using a relevant test method and in compliance with a known quality system (ISO 9001:2008). The result is considered to be reliable.

Description of key information

Relative density: 0.966 at 20°C (OECD 109)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
0.966

Additional information

A relative density value of 0.966 at 20°C was determined for the substance using an oscillating densitometer in accordance with OECD Test Guideline 109 and in compliance with a known quality system (ISO 9001:2008). The result is considered to be reliable and is selected as key study.

The key study is supported by a predicted density value of 1.0 g/cm³ at 20°C which was obtained using a validated QSAR estimation method.

A density value of 0.97g/cm3 at 25°C was reported for the substance in a secondary source (MSDS) to which reliability could not be assigned.
