Temp.:
20 °C
Conc.:
5.32 mg/L

Any other information on results incl. tables

Test concentration was determined with TOC analysis, due to limited water solubility.

During the specified period of time, no significant changes in the surface tension were detected. Values ranging from 69.04 mN/m to 70.52 mN/m were recorded showing no significant variations. The values of the single determinations show no significant difference (less than 5 % (1.11%) between mean values of the two-measurement series).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The determined surface tension of the test substance is higher than 60 mN/m. Therefore, the test substance can be classified as not surface active.
