Identification Quaternium-26
Appearance Clear amber to dark amber liquid
Batch 0001954899
Composition UVCB
Purity ca. 60% in propylene glycol
Storage At room temperature

Key result
Surface tension:
36.5 mN/m
Temp.:
20 °C
Conc.:
1 g/L
Conclusions:
The OECD harmonized ring method was applied for the determination of the surface tension of Quaternium-26. The surface tension of a test solution at a concentration of 1 g/L in water and at 20°C was
36.5 mN/m. According to this, the test item is considered to be surface active.
