Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

- Density:
- >= 1.12 - <= 1.15 kg/m³
- Temp.:
- 20 °C
- Conclusions:
- The available data support other newer guideline studies.The relative density of equilibrium products with concentrations of 5-35 % ranged from 1,120 to 1,150 kg/m3 (at 20 degrees Celsius).
- Executive summary:
Pure peracetic acid is not available because it is explosive. For this reason it is technically not possible to perform an experimental study according to the guideline to determine the density of pure peracetic acid. The relative density of equilibrium products with concentrations of 5-35 % ranged from 1,120 to 1,150 kg/m3 (at 20 °C).

Additional information
Pure peracetic acid is not available because it is explosive. For this reason it is technically not possible to perform an experimental study according to the guideline to determine the density of pure peracetic acid. The relative density of equilibrium products with concentrations of 5-35 % ranged from 1120 to 1150 kg/m3 (at 20 °C). Based on a weight of evidence approach the mean value of 1135 kg/m3 is used as kev value.
