Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Surface tension:
34

Additional information

No study was conduted on the extract itself.

However, the surface tension of the test substance was estimated using the constituents approach.

This final extract is a natural complex substance. It is a mixture of several components, and sunflower oil represents about 99.7% of the extract.

Literature provides data for sunflower oil at 34.0 mN/m at 20°C, estimated value for the extract also.
