Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

2009-07-08
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 115 (Surface Tension of Aqueous Solutions)

no
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.5 (Surface Tension)
Deviations:
no

Type of method:
OECD harmonised ring method
Key result
Surface tension:
71.9 mN/m
Temp.:
20 °C
Conc.:
1 g/L
Remarks on result:
other: mean value of 6 measurements
Conclusions:
A surface tension of 71.9 mN/m at 20 °C (conc. 1 g/L) was measured for the tested substance according to OECD Guideline 115 (OECD harmonised ring method).
Due to the fact that the surface tension is higher than 60 mN/m, the test item has no surface-active properties.

Description of key information

Not surface active base on a surface tension of 71.9 mN/m at 20 °C (conc. 1 g/L) (OECD Guideline 115, OECD harmonised ring method).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Surface tension:
71.9
in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
