Executive summary:

The aqueous solution of the test item had a mean surface tension of 61.4 mN/m according to European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008 (A.5 Surface tension of aqueous solutions) and to OECD 115.Due to the fact that the surface tension was higher than 60 mN/m, the test item had no surface-active properties.

Description of key information

European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008 (A.5 Surface tension of aqueous solutions) and to OECD 115 and in accordance with GLP.

The aqueous solution of the test item had a mean surface tension of 61.4 mN/m. Due to the fact that the surface tension was higher than 60 mN/m, the test item had no surface-active properties.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
