Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Specific details on test material used for the study:
SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- Source (i.e. manufacturer or supplier) and lot/batch number of test material: 4G08
- Purity, including information on contaminants, isomers, etc.: approx 95% no further information

STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Storage condition of test material: at room temperature at about 20 °C in dry conditions
- Stability and homogeneity of the test material in the vehicle/solvent under test conditions (e.g. in the exposure medium) and during storage: not stated but assumed stable
- Stability in the medium, i.e. sensitivity of the test material to hydrolysis and/or photolysis: not stated but assumed stable
- Solubility and stability of the test material in the solvent/vehicle and the exposure medium: no solvent/ vehicle used
- Reactivity of the test material with the incubation material used (e.g. plastic ware): no reactivity assumed

TREATMENT OF TEST MATERIAL PRIOR TO TESTING

Key result
Surface tension:
69.2 mN/m
Temp.:
20.9 °C
Conc.:
1 g/L
Conclusions:
The surface tension of MG-60 in water (at a concentration of about 0.1 %) was determined to be 69.2 mN/m at 20.9 °C. Based on the criteria in the EEC Guideline, MG-60 is not a surface active substance.
