Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
The substance is already subject of a harmonized classification as skin corr 1B and acute tox 3 (H301. H311, H331). Therefore no robust summary was produced, however the following (non-Klimisch rated) data were found in the literature:
- The oral LD50 was 122 mg/kg in rats.[3] Mice treated by oral gavage died at 100 mg/kg/day and above in an in vivo bone marrow micronucleus assay.[4](see section 7.6.2)
- The 4-hour inhalation LC50 was 252, 172 and 392 ppm = 0.63, 0.43 and 0.97 mg/L, in rats, mice and hamsters, respectively.[1,2,3]
- The dermal LD50 ranged 1329 to 1680 mg/kg in rabbits and guinea pigs.[1,3] One out of four dogs administered a single dermal dose of 300 mg/kg died 6 hours after exposure; all 3 dogs exposed to a single dermal dose of 1,800 mg/kg died within 6 hours.[1]

Additional information
The substance is already subject of a harmonized classification as T (toxic), R23/25.
Overall, the literature data that could be localized support this classification.
The only exemption is the dermal toxicity data suggest limited dermal toxicity not supporting R24, in spite of the corrosive nature. However the original data source could not be retrieved so the reliability is unsure. Due to the overall very hazardous profile of the substance, warranting maximal protection measures, generation of new animal toxicology data is unnecessary and would be unethical, therefore classification R24 is recommended.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The substance is already subject of a harmonized classification as T (toxic), R23/25. This classification is agreed upon by registrants. For the self classification R24 (H311) was added.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
