key study

Reliability:

1 (reliable without restriction)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

other: GLP study according to method 115 of the OECD guidelines

Qualifier:

equivalent or similar to guideline

Guideline:

OECD Guideline 115 (Surface Tension of Aqueous Solutions)

Principles of method if other than guideline:

test temperature 21.5 +-0.5°C

GLP compliance:

yes

Type of method:

ring method

Surface tension:

72.3 mN/m

Temp.:

21.5 °C

Conc.:

1.01 g/L

Remarks on result:

other: temperature precision 21.5 +/- 0.5°C

Conclusions:

The surface tension was determined to be 72.3 mN/m for a 1.01g/l solution at 21.5±0.5°C. The substance was also considered not to be a surface-active material.

Description of key information

The surface tension was determined to be 72.3 mN/m for a 1.01 g/L solution at 21.5±0.5°C. The substance was also considered not to be a surface-active material.
The surface tension of pure Epichlorohydrin at 25°C is 0.037 N/m.
