Conclusions:
The surface tension of a test solution at 90% of the test item saturation solubility in water and at 20°C was 54.9 mN/m. According to this, the test item is considered to be surface active.
Executive summary:

The OECD harmonized ring method was applied for the determination of the surface tension of Setalux 7002 BX-55.

The surface tension of a test solution at 90% of the test item saturation solubility in water and at 20°C was 54.9 mN/m. According to this, the test item is considered to be surface active.
