Any other information on results incl. tables

Determination of the calibration factor Fb is described in the Appendix of the attached study report. Table 2 in the report shows the individual measurements and the corrected surface tension of a solution of test substance in double-distilled water at a saturated concentration.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The surface tension of a saturated solution of DC 5067 in water was determined to be 29.0 mN/m. Based on the criteria as mentioned in the proposed updated version of the EEC guideline, it was concluded that DC 5067 should be regarded as a surface active material.
Executive summary:

The determination of the surface tension of an aqueous solution of DC 5067 was based on EEC-Directive A.5 5urface tensionn (1984), OECD Guideline no. 115 "Surface tension of aqueous solutions" (1981) and the proposed updated version of the EEC guideline (November 1989). The surface tension of a saturated solution of DC 5067 was determined to be 29.0 mN/m. Based on the criteria as mentioned in the proposed updated version of the EEC guideline, it was concluded that DC 5067 should be regarded as a surface active material. The temperature of measurement was 20.0 + 0.5°C.
