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. May form flammable/explosive vapour-air mixture. This material is shipped under pressure. High gas concentrations will displace available air; unconsciousness and death may occur sud- denly from lack of oxygen. Rapid release of gases which are liquids under pressure may cause frost burns of exposed tis- sues (skin, eye) due to evaporative cooling.
