H and P Notes

2.3 Other hazards

The vapour forms flammable and explosive mixtures with air. Vapour is heavier than air: it can build up in closed rooms or in hollows, spread at ground level and cause risks of fire and explosion even at a distance. In some circumstances, the product can build considerable amounts of static electricity sparks, with the risk of electricity discharges triggering fires or explosions. The product does not meet the PBT or VPvB criteria specified in Enclosure XIII of the REACH.
