Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusions:
The surface tension of duplicate, nominally 1.0 g/L solutions of test item in water has been determined to be 57.1 ± 1.0 mN/m at 20.4 ± 0.5 °C. The test item was considered to be surface-active. However, in the water solubility test, the water solubility results overall indicated that the test item is easily prone to hydrolysis. Therefore, the surface tension results were most likely due to the much more polar, hydrolysis product, than the non-polar, parent test item.

Description of key information

The surface tension of duplicate, nominally 1.0 g/Lsolutions of test item in water has been determined to be 57.1 ± 1.0mN/m at 20.4 ± 0.5°C. The test item was considered to be surface-active.

However, in the water solubility test, the water solubility results overall indicated that the test item is easily prone to hydrolysis. Therefore, the surface tension results were most likely due to the much more polar, hydrolysis product, than the non-polar, parent test item.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Surface tension:
57.1
in mN/m at 20°C and concentration in mg/L:
1 000

Additional information

The determination of surface tension of Jasminlactone was carried out by a ring method. The procedure was designed to be compatible with the EC Method A.5 and the OECD test guideline 115, and was conducted in compliance with GLP.
