Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The substance is not surface active.
Executive summary:

In an OECD harmonised ring test the surface tension of the substance was determined in 5-fold using a tensiometer. The corrected surface tension is 64.7 mN/m. The substance is considered not surface active
