Individual and Final Results
Surface tension (ST) of test substance (0.09 g/L in demineralized water) at 20 °C:
Value 1 61.07 mN/m
Value 2 61.03 mN/m
Value 3 61.12 mN/m
Value 4 61.11 mN/m
Value 5 61.10 mN/m
Value 6 61.08 mN/m
Value 7 61.07 mN/m
Value 8 61.06 mN/m
Value 9 61.06 mN/m
Value 10 61.07 mN/m
Mean value: 61.08 mN/m
Correction factor 1: 0.954
ST Value (σ) after first correction: 58.27 mN/m
The second correction (Harkins and Jordan) was calculated with the following formula:
Surface tension (final corrected) = 0.00085 σ2+ 0.96115 σ - 1.594
Surface tension (final corrected) = 0.0085 * (58.27 mN/m)2+ 0.96115 * 58.27 mN/m – 1.594 = 57.3 mN/m
The surface tension of the test substance is σ =57.3 mN/m.
Description of key information
Surface tension is 57.3 mN/m at 20 ºC with 0.09 g/L solution (OECD 115, ring method).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Surface tension:
- 57.3
- in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
- 90
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
