Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- surface tension
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 14 April 1993
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: Study conducted to EU test guidance in compliance with GLP.
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method A.5 (Surface Tension)
- Deviations:
- no

- yes
- Type of method:
- ring method
- Surface tension:
- 53.9 mN/m
- Temp.:
- 20 °C
- Conc.:
- 1 000 mg/L
- Conclusions:
- After correction with respect to the table given in the directive A,5. (Harkins-Jordan correction), the final value for the surface tension at 20⁰C is:
W = 53.9 x 10-3 N/m - Executive summary:
The purpose of the test was the determination of the surface tension according to 84/449/EEC Part A5 using the ring method and in accordance with GLP.
An aqueous solution of the substance with a concentration of 1 g/l was prepared. Six measurements at a temperature of 20 C, every 5 min, were done.
After correction with respect to the table given in the directive A,5. (Harkins-Jordan correction), the final value for the surface tension at 20°C is:
W = 53.9 mN/m
Reference
An aqueous solution of the substance with a concentration of 1 g/l was prepared. Six measurements at a temperature of 20 ⁰C, every 5 min, were done.
