Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Principles of method if other than guideline:
Data in this peer-reviewed publication were taken from many sources, including both compilations and primary literature. Where conflicts were found, the values deemed most reliable were chosen for inclusion in the handbook. A reference source was not provided for this parameter, nor was the experimental method.

Description of key information

Several peer reviewed sources report the relative density of anisole to be between 0.9956 and 0.9961 at 18-20 degrees C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
0.995

Additional information

The relative density of Anisole at 20 degrees C was calculated as the mean of the available peer reviewed sources. Two peer reviewed relative densities at 18 and 20 degrees C (4 degrees C reference temperature) and two peer reviewed absolute densities converted to relative densities at 20 degrees C (4 degrees C reference temperature) were averaged to determine a relative density of 0.995.
