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 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 Commission Regulation (EU) 2018/605 at levels of 0.1% or higher. Electrostatic charges may be generated during pumping. Electrostatic discharge may cause fire. Vapours are heavier than air. Vapours may travel across the ground and reach remote ignition sources causing a flashback fire danger. High gas concentrations will displace available air; unconsciousness and death may occur sud- denly from lack of oxygen.
2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture
Classification (REGULATION (EC) No 1272/2008) Flammable gases, Category 1A H220: Extremely flammable gas. Gases under pressure, Liquefied gas H280: Contains gas under pressure; may explode if heated.
