SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Regulation EC 1272/2008 (CLP) According to Directive 1999/45/EEC Not hazardous.
2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture
According to Regulation EC 1272/2008 [CLP] Not hazardous.
2.3 Other hazards
PBT/vBvP Criteria In accordance with appendix XIII of the Regulation (EC) no. 1907/2006, it is not PBT or vPvB. Other hazards that do not involve product classification When heated the urea solution decomposes releasing ammonia. In the case of a fire and very high temperatures toxic fumes can be released that contain
Other physicochemical hazards
nitrogen and ammonium oxides. This product is basically harmless when handled correctly. Nevertheless, the following points should be observed: Contact with skin: Prolonged or repeated exposure and prolonged immersion may cause irritation or inflammation. Contact with eyes: Direct contact with eyes, even though the product is not considered an irritant, may cause temporary discomfort such as irritation and redness.
Health hazards
Ingestion: Swallowing small amounts is unlikely to have toxic effects. In large quantities it can produce disorders in the gastrointestinal tract. Inhalation: Even though this product is not classified avoid exposure by inhalation. In case of solidification by crystallization, inhalation of air-blown dust at high concentrations may cause irritation of the nose and upper respiratory tract. Other Fire and heating When heated the urea solution decomposes releasing ammonia. In the case of a fire and very high temperatures toxic fumes can be released that contain nitrogen and ammonium oxides. Intrinsically low toxicity to aquatic life, but will exert a substantial oxygen demand which may cause damage to aquatic life when spillage in significant
