Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The density of the test item has been determined to be 987 kg/m3 at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C (relative density value 0.987).
Executive summary:

The density of the test item was determined using the pycnometer method, according to Method A3 Relative Density of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 109 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 02 October 2012.

The density was 987 kg/m3; the relative density was 0.987, at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C.
