Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

The surface tension of a solution of Decenal-4-trans in ultra pue water (69 mg/l, 90% of saturation concentration) was determined according to the OECD Guideline No. 115, using the ring method.
The result is: 55.1 mN/m
Therefore according to this test, it was considered that the test material is surface active (surface tension < 60 mN/m).
