250	65.0	21.8
255	65.5	21.8
Mean sample reading = 65.3 (last five sample readings on a plateau)

Surface tension =                    reading x calibration factor
Sample A                   =                    65.2 mN/m
Sample B                   =                    65.6 mN/m
Temperature:                                  22.0 ± 0.5 ºC

pH of sample solution:                       Sample A = 4.0
                                                         Sample B = 4.0

      

Discussion

Substances showing a surface tension lower than 60 mN/m are regarded as being surface active.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

The surface tension of duplicate 1.08 g/L aqueous solutions of test item has been determined to be 65.2 to 65.6 mN/m at 22.0 ± 0.5°C. The test item was considered not to be surface active.

Executive summary:

Method

The determination was carried out using a ring method designed to be compatible with Method A5 Surface Tension of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and Method 115 of the OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals, 27 July 1995.

 

Result

The surface tension of duplicate 1.08 g/L aqueous solutions of test item has been determined to be 65.2 to 65.6 mN/m at 22.0 ± 0.5°C. The test item was considered not to be surface active.
