Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
surface tension
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
02.12. – 03 Dec 2010
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Remarks:
Guideline compliant study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.5 (Surface Tension)
Deviations:
no
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 115 (Surface Tension of Aqueous Solutions)
Deviations:
no
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
ring method
Surface tension:
72.6 mN/m
Temp.:
20 °C
Conc.:
0.018 g/L
Conclusions:
72.6 mN/m
Executive summary:

The surface tension was determined with the ring method according to EC A.5 and OECD 115. The surface tension of a 0.018 g/L solution of FeS was 72.6 mN·m-1.

The result is considered relevant and reliable for the further risk assessment.

Endpoint:
surface tension
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because based on structure, surface activity is not expected or cannot be predicted
the study does not need to be conducted because water solubility is below 1 mg/L at 20°C

Description of key information

Additional information

In the Klimisch 1 key study (Paß 2011) the surface tension was determined with the ring method according to EC A.5 and OECD 115. The surface tension of a 0.018 g/L solution of FeS was 72.6 mN·m-1.

The result is considered relevant and reliable for the further risk assessment.
