Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusions:
The density of the test item was determined to be 1054.7 kg/m3 at 20°C.
Executive summary:

The density of the test item was determined by Immersed body method (a buoyancy method for liquids) according to the OECD guideline 109. A glass sphere with a volume of 11.369 cm3 was immersed in the liquid test substance for the calculation of the density. The test was repeated three times and the respective results were averaged. The density of the test item was determined to be 1054.7 kg/m3 at 20°C. The study is reliable with restrictions, being non-GLP compliant, but having followed the main guideline.

Description of key information

The relative density of the test item was determined to be 1.055 at 20 °C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1.055

Additional information

The relative density of the test item was assessed based on Immersed body method (a buoyancy method for liquids) according to OECD guideline 109. The study is reliable with restrictions, being non-GLP compliant, but having followed a standard guideline (2013).
