Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

Surface tension: 45.1 mN/m at the saturation concentration (given as 1.0 g/l)
According to the Council Regulation (EC) No 648/2004 the substance can be regarded as surface active material.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Surface tension:
45.1
in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
1 000

Additional information

A surface tension of 45.1 mN/m at the saturation concentration (given as of 1.0 g/l) is reported in a reliable study, conducted according to an appropriate EU test protocol and in compliance with GLP; this is the most reliable result and is assigned as key study.

A water solubility of 1.0 g/l was determined in this study, different than the 0.85g/L obtained in the key water solubility study. It is assumed that hydrolysis effects, which have been observed in the surface tension study, are responsible for the deviation.
