Note: As the difference between results was less than 0.03 g/ml; hence two trials were enough.

Conclusions:
The relative density of the tested material was determned to be 1.228 at 20ºC.

Executive summary:

Determination of density was carried out in accordance with OECD 109 Guideline and EU method A.3, with GLP. The density determination of the tested material was performed using the Gay-Lussac pycnometer. Two measurements were performed and considered enough as the difference between results was less than 0.03 g/ml. The average measured absolute density of the tested material at 20°C was 1.228 g/mL. The average calculated relative density of the tested material at 20°C was 1.228.

Description of key information

Key study: Test method according to OECD 109/ EU Method A.3, GLP study. The measured absolute density of the tested material at 20°C was 1.228 g/mL and the calculated relative density was 1.228 at 20ºC.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1.228
