Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
2010
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: None GLP laboratory
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: Wilhelmy plate
Deviations:
no
Principles of method if other than guideline:
A Wilhelmy plate is a thin plate that is used to measure equilibrium surface or interfacial tension at an air-liquid or liquid-liquid interface. In this method, the plate is oriented perpendicular to the interface, and the force exerted on it is measured.
GLP compliance:
no
Remarks:
No GLP lab
Type of method:
plate method
Surface tension:
25.4 mN/m
Temp.:
25 °C
Conc.:
100 vol%
Conclusions:
The measured surface tension at 25 deg C is 25.4 mN/m, using the Wilhelmy plate method.
Executive summary:

The measured surface tension at 25 deg C is 25.4 mN/m, using the Wilhelmy plate method.

Description of key information

The surface tension at 25 deg C is between 25 and 27 mN/m, measured with the Wilhelmy plate method.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The surface tension at 25 deg C is between 25 and 27 mN/m, measured with the Wilhelmy plate method.
