Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

The surface tension of duplicate 90% saturated aqueous solutions of aluminum, benzoate C16-18-fatty acids complexes has been determined to be 72.6 mN/m at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C. Aluminum, benzoate C16-18-fatty acids complexes was considered not to be surface active. 

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Surface tension:
72.6
in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
0.234

Additional information

The surface tension of the test material was determined in a GLP-compliant ring balance test following OECD guideline 115 (Harlan 2013). The study was conducted on a 90% saturated aqueous solution (calculated as 90% of water solubility).
