Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

Surface tension: 52.9 mN/m
Therefore, according to this test, it was considered that the test material and/or the degradation product are surface active (surface tension < 60 mN/m).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Surface tension:
52.9
in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
460

Additional information

The surface tension of a solution of Melonal in ultrapure water (0.46 g/L, 90% of the saturation concentration) was determined according to the OECD Guideline No. 115, using the ring method. Other than the test product the solution did contain a not quantified amount of degradation product of the test substance.

The result is: 52.9 mN/m

Therefore, according to this test, it was considered that the test material and/or the degradation product are surface active (surface tension < 60 mN/m).
