Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
surface tension
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2000
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study without detailed documentation
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 115 (Surface Tension of Aqueous Solutions)
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.5 (Surface Tension)
GLP compliance:
yes
Type of method:
OECD harmonised ring method
Surface tension:
72.11 mN/m
Temp.:
20 °C
Conc.:
1 000 mg/L
Remarks on result:
other: corrected value, average of the final three values

Calibration:

Measurement of the surface tension of pure water from Apr.20, 2000:

a= 72.75 mN/m, value cited in the literature for the surface tension of water

b= 76.57 mN/m, measured value of the surface tension of water (20.1°C)

calibration factor Phi b = a/b = 0.9501

Correction:

calibration factor * measured surface tension of the testsubstance

0.9501*75.90 mN/m = 72.11 mN/m
