Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
relative density
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.3 (Relative Density)
Version / remarks:
internal method G03302 SPECIFIC GRAVITY AND DENSITY AT 25°C (BY PYKNOMETER)
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Because of the substance's water insolubility it was possible to measure the density by water displacement within a pyknometer (see under results).
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
pycnometer method

Wt. Pyknometer                     :          45.331g

Wt. Pyknometer + water        :          144.929g

Wt. Pyknometer + sample only :          75.629g

Wt. Pyknometer + sample+ water:    144.538g

 

Wt sample added = 75.629 – 45.331 = 30.298g

Wt of water to fill pyknometer = 144.929 – 45.331 = 99.598g ->99.888ml @25degC

Wt of water added = 145. 538 – 75.629 = 69.909g -> 70.112ml @25degC

Therefore Volume of sample = 99.888 – 70.112 = 29.776ml

 

Therefore density of sample = 30.298/29.776 = 1.018g/ml

Conclusions:
Density at 25°C 1.018 g/mL

Description of key information

Density at 25°C  1.018 g/mL

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Relative density at 20C:
1.018
