Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The OECD harmonized ring method was applied for the determination of the surface tension of the test substance.
The surface tension of a test solution at 90% of the test item saturation solubility in water and at 20°C was 66.6 mN/m. According to this, the test item is considered not to be surface active.
