Conclusions:
The average surface tension was 72.8 mN/m.
Executive summary:

The surface tension of the test substance was determined in an OECD Guideline 115 test. The surface tension of saturated solution at 20 °C was determined to be 72.8 mN/m.

Description of key information

72.8 mN/m at 20 °C (OECD 115, ring method), not surface active substance

Key value for chemical safety assessment
