Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Guideline:
OECD Guideline 115 (Surface Tension of Aqueous Solutions)
Version / remarks:
30 May 2008

Specific details on test material used for the study:
Batch: CF-1820A
Purity: >99.00 wt%
Expiry date: 07 February 2027
Storage conditions: Room temperature in the dark
Key result
Surface tension:
72.1 mN/m
Temp.:
20 °C
Conc.:
1 g/L
Conclusions:
The surface tension at nominally 1 g/L solution of test item in water has been determined to
be 72.1 mN/m at 20 °C. The test item was considered not to be surface-active.
Executive summary:

The determination was carried out using the Ring method, designed to be compatible with Method A.5 Surface Tension of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 (as amended) of 30 May 2008 and Method 115 of the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 23 March 2006. The surface tension at a nominally 1 g/L solution Copper Diformate has been determined to be 72.1 mN/m at 20°C. Copper diformate was considered not be surface-active.

Description of key information

According to criteria stated in EC Method A.5, substances showing a surface tension lower than 60 mN/m under the conditions of this method should be regarded as being surface active.

 

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Surface tension:
72.1
in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
72.1

Additional information

The surface tension at nominally 1 g/L solution of test item in water has been determined to be 72.1 mN/m at 20 °C. The test item was considered not to be surface-active.
