 Results
Relative Density
Two tests with different amounts of the test item were done to determine the relative density D420at a temperature of 20 °C
± 0.01 °C.

The mean density of the test item at 20 °C is 2.7879 g/cm³.The relative density D420 is calculated by dividing the density of the test item by the density of water at 4 °C (0.9999750 g/cm³).

The relative density is           D420 = 2.79.

Description of key information

Relative Density: 2.79 at 20 °C (OECD 109, air comparison pycnometer).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
2.79
