Key result
Surface tension:
>= 72.33 - <= 73.06 mN/m
Temp.:
20 °C
Conc.:
1 g/L
Remarks on result:
other: not surface active
Conclusions:
The study was performed according to OECD TG 115 under GLP on the substance to be registered itself, validity criteria were met, the test procedure is well documented and therefore reliability of Klimisch 1 has been assigned. During the specified period of time, no significant changes in the surface tension were detected. Values ranging from 72.33 mN/m to 73.06 mN/m were recorded showing no significant variations, All measured values lay clearly above the threshold for surface tension which is stated in the guidelines. Therefore, the result of the test is considered valid and the test item 1-(2-hydroxy-3-sulphonatopropyl)pyridinium (PPSOH) is classified as “not surface active” in a concentration of 1.00 g/L.
Executive summary:

The surface tension of an aqueous solution of 1-(2-hydroxy-3-sulphonatopropyl)pyridinium (PPSOH) was determined according to OECD 115 resp. EU A.5 as 72.64 ± 0.10 mN/m at 19.9 °C. One measurement was performed for verification (after 61 minutes). No significant changes and thus no significant dependence on time was observed.

As these values were higher than 60 mN/m, 1-(2-hydroxy-3-sulphonatopropyl)pyridinium (PPSOH) was classified as not surface active. The surface tension of the negative control lay within the accepted range.

Description of key information

Surface tension: 72.64 ± 0.10 mN/m at 19.9 °C, 1 g/l solution in deionised water, not surface active (plate method, OECD 115, GLP)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Surface tension:
72.64
in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
1 000
