Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: ISO 9101
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Drop volume method: measurement of the volume of an aqueous phase formed at the end of a vertical capillary tube when it detaches from the tube in contact with the organic phase. The interfacial tension is obtained between two liquid phases by balancing the weight of the drop with the interfacial tension force supporting it and applying a correction factor. The interfacial tension is then calculated from the volume of the falling drop, the outer capillary radius, the density difference between the two liquid phases and the acceleration due to the gravity.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
other: ISO 9101

Any other information on results incl. tables

The actual concentration of dimethyloctenol in the aqueous phase was not determined. The aqueous phase was saturated with

dimethyloctenol prior to determination of surface tension. The actual water solubility was anticipated.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The surface tension between dimethyloctenol and water was measure using the drop volume method according to ISO 9101. The measured value was determined to be 25.07 mN/m at 20 °C.
Executive summary:

The surface tension between dimethyloctenol and water was measure using the drop volume method according to ISO 9101. The measured value was determined to be 25.07 mN/m at 20 °C.
