Key result

Surface tension:

72.07 mN/m

Temp.:

19.5 °C

Conc.:

1 g/L

The surface tension of the negative control was determined with 73.17 mN/m at 18.7 °C, therefore, showing a difference of 0.26 % from the stated literature value. The difference lies within the accepted range of 1 % deviation from literature value.

Conclusions:

The surface tension of an aqueous solution (1g/L) of the test item was determined as 72.07 ± 0.15 mN/m at 19.5 °C.

Executive summary:

A study was conducted according OECD TG 115 and EU method A.5 to determine the surface tension of an aqueous solution of the test item using the plate method. In the course of this study aqueous solutions were prepared containing 1 g/L test item in HPLC water. The test was performed with the help of K11HRX (Krüss) type tensiometer. The surface tension of the negative control HPCL water lay within the accepted range. The surface tension of an aqueous solution of the test item was determined as 72.07 ± 0.15 mN/m at 19.5 °C. One measurement was performed for verification (after 69 minutes). No significant changes and thus no significant dependence on time were observed. As these values were higher than 60 mN/m, the test item was classified as not surface active.
