1 Aqueous solution was saturated in these conditions. The saturated sample was filtrated over a Whatman 595 filter paper to have reproducible results.

Conclusions:
A saturated solution of the test substance was determined to have a surface tension of 38.5 mN/m at 23 °C, using a du Nouy ring method according to OECD Guideline 115. The substance is evaluated as being surface active.
