Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The OECD harmonized ring method was applied for the determination of the surface tension of E-BW102. The surface tension of a test solution at a concentration of 1 g/l and at 20°C was 74.9 mN/m. As this value is well above the cut-off value for surface active materials (< 60 mN/m), the test substance is considered not to be surface active.
