Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Adequacy of study:

Study period:
2010-10-14 to 2010-10-13
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Justification for type of information:
Surface tension for cesium acetate has been extrapolate from read-across with other cesium salts (cesium nitrate, cesium chloride, cesium sulfate and cesium iodide) and cesium hydroxide. All cesium salts and cesium hydroxide used for the read-across have similar physchem data regarding critical endpoint such as water solubility. In addition, for these cesium components, the surface tension has been determined experimentally the value is in the range of: 69,2 - 72,8 mN/m (20°C). It has been concluded that the surface tension of cesium acetate should be within that range of values. Further details on read-across strategy is available in section 13 of this dossier.

Description of key information

Based on read-across strategy used for the determination of the surface tension of cesium acetate, the value varies between 69,2 - 72,8 mN/m (20°C).

This range is obtained from experimental data using OECD guideline n°115 ran on CsCl, CsI, CsOH, CsNO3 and CsSO4. The value are the following:

- CsCl: 72,8 mN/m at 20°C

- CsI: 69,2 mN/m at 20°C

- CsOH.H2O: 71,1 mN/m at 20°C

- CsNO3: 72,5 mN/m at 20°C

- CsSO4: 71,1 mN/m at 20°C

Rationale for RA is available in section 13. Assessment report.
