Surface tension:
31 mN/m
Temp.:
20 °C
Conc.:
42 vol%
Remarks on result:
other: substance tested tel-quel
Conclusions:
Surface tension at 20 °C : 31 mN/m
Executive summary:

A study was conducted according toOECD Guideline No. 115 for the testing of chemicalsto determine the surface tension of an aqueous solution of the test item using the plate method. The surface tension of the test item was found to be 31 mN/m. As this value is lower than 60 mN/m, the test item classified as surface active substance.
