Create New Document with iLogic [Density Override]

Is there a way to create a new material/override a density for a material using iLogic?

 

My plans are to create an input box to ask the user for the real mass of an imported component, and then to divide that value by the volume of the component in order to create a "true average density" for the material so the inertial properties would be more correct.

 

So far I have come accross: 

 

MaterialAsset.PhysicalPropertiesAsset Property MaterialAsset.PhysicalPropertiesAsset()
