The aqueous solution of the test item had a mean surface tension of 72.1 mN/m. This is > 60 mN/m, therefore the test item has no surface active properties.
Description of key information
72.1 mN/m at 20 °C and 1 g/L (OECD 115, tensiometric method)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Surface tension:
- 72.1
- in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
- 1 000
Additional information
Not surface active.
