2.3 Other hazards
The substance does not fulfill all screening criteria for persistence, bioaccumulation and toxicity and hence is not considered to be PBT or vPvB.
ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
The substance/mixture does not contain components considered to have endocrine disrupting properties according to Technical Regulation of Ukraine and other relevant legislations on the assessment of the properties of endocrine disruptors at levels of 0.1% or high- er.
TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
The substance/mixture does not contain components considered to have endocrine disrupting properties according to Technical Regulation of Ukraine and other rel- evant legislations on the assessment of the properties of endocrine disruptors at levels of 0.1% or higher. May form flammable/explosive vapour-air mixture. This material is a static accumulator. Even with proper grounding and bonding, this material can still accumulate an electrostatic charge. If sufficient charge is allowed to accumulate, electrostatic discharge and ignition of flammable air- vapour mixtures can occur. Vapours may be irritating to the eye. Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking.
