Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
surface tension
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
16.07. - 27.07.07
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.5 (Surface Tension)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
OECD harmonised ring method
Key result
Surface tension:
68.3 mN/m
Temp.:
20 °C
Conc.:
21.53 mg/L

Three individual values were determined:

68.23 mN/m

68.36 mN/m

68.22 mN/m

Conclusions:
The surface tension was determined to be 69.3 mN/m at 20°C and therefore the test item is not considered to be a surface active substance.
Executive summary:

The surface tension of the test item was determined according to EU Method A.5. The mean value of three determinations was determined to be 69.3 mN/m at 20°C. Therefore, the item has no surface-active properties.

Description of key information

The surface tension was determined to be 69.3 mN/m at 20°C and therefore the test item is not considered to be a surface active substance.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Surface tension:
69.3
in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
