Description of key information

The surface tension of the substance was determined in a GLP-compliant study according to test method EC A.5 to be 58.2 mN/m at 20.0°C following the ring method (K1 study, Dekra, 2014).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Surface tension:
58.2
in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
