ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
The substance/mixture does not contain components considered to have endocrine disrupting properties according to REACH Article 57(f) or Commission Delegated regu- lation (EU) 2017/2100 or Commission Regulation (EU) 2018/605 at levels of 0.1% or higher.
TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
The substance/mixture does not contain components considered to have endocrine disrupting properties according to REACH Article 57(f) or Commission Delegated regulation (EU) 2017/2100 or Vapours are heavier than air. Commission Regulation (EU) 2018/605 at levels of 0.1% or higher. Vapours may travel across the ground and reach remote ignition sources causing a flashback fire danger. 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. Slightly irritating to respiratory system. Slightly irritating to the eye. Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking.
