Methodology

Glycerin density and calculation basis

Evidence status: blocked.

Glycerin density depends on water content and temperature.

temperature: 20 °C

grade: High-purity ACS glycerin

state: Liquid

Source basis: Fisher Science Education, Glycerin S25342A, high-purity ACS. Specifications: density and physical form. https://www.fishersci.com/shop/products/glycerin-28/S25342A Applicability: conditional-comparison.

Review the adopted concentration and the unexplained 1 kg/m³ difference.

For this direction, mass is calculated as volume multiplied by density after normalizing the units to cubic meters and kilograms. The resulting page multiplier is 0.0052576 ton (US) per gal (US).

Use a measured density for a specific batch, grade or supplier; the table value is a reference, not a product specification.
