Density

The mean  density of test item  was determined to be 0.90 g/cm³ at 20°C .

Particle size distribution (Granulometry)

The study does not need to be conducted because the substance is marketed or used in a non solid or granular form.

Vapour pressure

Based on the data from modelling database, Modified Grain method (Mean of Antoine and Modified Grain methods) was used to estimate the vapour pressure of the test chemical using MPBPVP v1.43 of EPI SUITE. The vapour pressure of test chemical at 25°C was estimated to be 0.00403 mmHg (0.537 Pa).

Partition coefficient

KOWWIN V1.68 was used to estimate the octanol water partition coefficient of the test chemical. The partition coefficient (logKow) value of the test chemical was estimated to be 1.1633 at 25°C.

Water solubility

Experimental study was performed adapting method fromISO 9101:1987 Surface active agents: Determination of interfacial tension -Drop volumemethod.

The surface tension of test substance  was determined to be 41.07 mN/m at  20 ºC and 969.5 hPa .

Flash point

The flash point determination of test substance was done as per the test guideline OECD 103. The method is closed cup method using Pensky Martin’s Flash Point Apparatus. The flashpoint of the test substance was determined to be 91.3°C at 969 hPa

Autoflammability

Test chemical did not catch fire on being exposed to air at room temperature of 28°C and at pressure of 975 hPa. This indicates that the test chemical is not auto-flammable.

Flammability

Flash point of test substance was determined to be 91.3°C . On the basis of GHS classification criteria, test chemical has flash point > 60°C hence the test chemical was considered to be non flammable.

Explosiveness

The study does not need to be conducted because there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with explosive properties

Oxidising properties

The study does not need to be conducted because there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with oxidizing properties and hence the classification procedure does not need to be applied

pH

The pH determination of test item was done as per the test guideline OECD 122. The mean pH of the test dispersion was determined with the help of digital pH meter. The mean pH was determine to be 11.38 at 22.4 °C , inferring its basic nature.
