Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Batch n°: RT002102G4A311
- Analytical purity: 99.4%
- Expiration date: 25 March 2002
- Storage condition: at room temperature
Key result
Surface tension:
71.6 mN/m
Temp.:
20.6 °C
Conc.:
1 vol%
Conclusions:
The surface tension of T002102 in water (at a concentration of about 1 %) was determined to be 71.6 mN/m at 20.6 deg C ± 0.2 deg C. Based on the criteria as outlined in the OECD Guideline, T002102 is a not surface-active substance.

Description of key information

The surface tension of the substance was determined in a GLP study according to test method EC A.5 and OECD guideline 115, to be 71.6 mN/m at 20.6 °C, following the ring method (RCC, 2001).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Surface tension:
71.6
in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
1 051

Additional information

A GLP study performed according to OECD guideline 115 and EU Method A.5 without deviations was used to determine the surface tension, therefore this study was assigned a Klimisch score and key study for this endpoint. The surface tension of T002102 in water (at a concentration of about 1 %) was determined to be 71.6 mN/m at 20.6 deg C ± 0.2 deg C. Based on the criteria as outlined in the OECD Guideline, T002102 is a not surface-active substance.
