The mean surface tension of the test item at 9 mg/L in demineralised water was: 70.5 +/- 0.4 mN/m (corrected value).

Conclusions:
The mean surface tension of the test item at 9 mg/L in demineralized water was: 70.5 +/- 0.4 mN/m (corrected value). The test item was not considered as surface-active under the experimental conditions.

Additional information

The surface tension of resin acids and rosin acids, cobalt salts was determined according to OECD guideline 115, ring method.The measurements were performed in athermo regulatedroom at about 20 °C. Several measurements were made at various times. Three assays were conducted. For two assays the surface tension was noted 20 minutes after thestabilisationof the temperature.Under the described conditions the mean surface tension of the test itemresin acids and rosin acids, cobalt saltsat 9 mg/L in demineralised water was 70.5 mN/m (corrected value).In conclusion,

resin acids and rosin acids, cobalt saltshas no surface active properties.
