Description of key information
The surface tension of valeric acid was determined to be 51.6 mN/m at 20°C.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Surface tension:
- 51.6
- in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
- 1 000
Additional information
Two studies conducted according to OECD guideline 115 are available for valeric acid. Both studies were conducted at 20°C with a concentration of 1 g/L, reporting values of 51.6 mN/m and 66 mN/m, respectively. The study with the highest quality (Klimisch 1) has been selected as key study.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
