Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint:
surface tension
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
08 October 2018 (experimental starting date) - 06 November 2018 (experimental completion date)
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 115 (Surface Tension of Aqueous Solutions)
Version / remarks:
27 July 1995
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.5 (Surface Tension)
Version / remarks:
30 May 2008
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
ring method
Surface tension:
65 mN/m
Temp.:
20 °C
Conc.:
100 vol%
Conclusions:
According to criteria stated in EC Method A.5, substances showing a surface tension lower than 60 mN/m under the conditions of this method should be regarded as being surface active.The surface tension of the test item at nominally 1 g/L in water has been determined to be 65 ± 3 mN/m at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C. The test item was considered to be not surface-active.
Executive summary:

The surface tension of the test item at nominally 1 g/L in water has been determined to be 65 ± 3 mN/m at 20.0 ± 0.5 °C. The test item was considered to be not surface-active.
