- Conclusions:
- The surface tension of C12 AAPB was determined to 32.0 +/- 0.2 mN/m at 20°C in a study conducted according to DIN EN 14370 (Wilhelmy plate method).
- Executive summary:
The surface tension of C12 AAPB was investigated in a study conducted according to DIN EN 14370 and using the Wilhelmy plate method. Bidistilled water and 1 -octanol have been measured as calibration and control sample. The surface tension of C12 AAPB as 1 g/L solution was determined to 32.0 +/- 0.2 mN/m at 20°C (average of 5 measurements).

Additional information
In studies conducted according to DIN EN 14370 (Wilhelmy plate method), the surface tensions of C8 -18 AAPB and C12 AAPB were determined to be 30.9 +/- 0.2 mN/m and 32.0 +/- 0.2 mN/m at 20°C, respectively. All AAPBs are similar in structure, contain all the same zwitterionic structure. They differ, however, by their carbon chain length distribution and the degree of unsaturation (<=20%) in the fatty acid moiety. The content of minor constituents in all products are comparable and differ to an irrelevant amount. Based on the available data, it can be assumed that chain length distribution and degree of unsaturation of the fatty acid chain have a minor impact on this endpoint.
