Conclusions:
The mean relative density of the test item was determined to be 0.921 at 20 ± 0.5 °C using the pycnometer method.
Executive summary:

The mean relative density was determined according to EU Method A.3 using the pycnometer method under GLP. The mean relative density (n=2) of the test item was determined to be 0.921 at 20 ± 0.5 °C.
