Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The surface tension of the test item in water (90 % of saturation concentration) was determined to be 61.2mN/m at 21.2 °C and thus is not considered to be a surface active material.
Executive summary:

The surface tension of an aqueous solution of the test item (90% of saturation concentration) was determined using a tensiometer Model K8. The measuring body was a platinum-iridium ring with a wire radius of 0.185 mm and a ring radius of 9.545 mm. The sample measurements were performed at 21.2°C and the calibration measurement was made at 20.6°C. The apparatus was calibrated using double distilled water from RCC supply and the calibration factor determined to be 1.0169.

The surface tension of the test item in water (90 % of saturation concentration) was determined to be 61.2mN/m at 21.2 °C and thus is not considered to be a surface active material.
