Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

EC number: 270-662-5 | CAS number: 68475-80-9 A complex combination of hydrocarbons from the multiple distillation of products from a steam cracking process. It consists of hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly in the range of C10 through C18.

Description of key information
The surface tension of an aqueous preparation (90% saturation) of one stream within this Category is 72.1 mN/m at 20°C, indicating that these streams are not surface active.
Data from are available for one of the streams in this category. The data will be read across to all category members. This study was conducted to a standard guideline and according to GLP and so is considered fully reliable for use as a key study. The key value has been completed using the only available data for streams in this category. The surface tension result was given at 90% saturation and this has been converted to a concentration in mg/L by applying this factor to the water solubility result for this stream.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Surface tension:
- 72.1
- in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
- 34.2
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
