Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 115 (Surface Tension of Aqueous Solutions)
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Method: Pendant drop, Perstorp A1577 (correlates well to OECD 115), se company report no W09-2478.
A syringe was filled with approximately 10 ml of the solution and was attached to the instrument. The solution was mechanically expelled from the syringe so that it formed a drop on the tip of the needle. This drop was examined optically by the software and 20 images were collected at a rate of 1 image every 3 seconds. The surface tension was calculated by the shape of the drop and the result is expressed as a mean value of the 20 images.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
other: pendant drop
