10-11. April 2012
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.5 (Surface Tension)
GLP compliance:

Type of method:
plate method
Key result
Surface tension:
>= 71.2 - <= 72.4 mN/m
Temp.:
25 °C
Conc.:
108 mg/L
Remarks on result:
other: Result is reported as 71.8 ±0.6 mN/m

The test result is provided as mean of two independant experiments resulting in 71.57 mN/m and 72.09 mN/m at 25 °C.

No significant ageing of the test substance was observed.

Conclusions:
In an experiment according to EU method A.5 the surface tension of the substance was determined resulting in 71.8 mN/m at 25 °C. Thus, the test substance does not appear to be surface active, i.e. > 60 mN/m.
Executive summary:

In an experiment according to EU method A.5 the surface tension of the substance was determined resulting in 71.8 mN/m at 25 °C. Thus, the test substance does not appear to be surface active, i.e. >60 mN/m.

Description of key information
