The available data do not allow for comparison with the classification criteria according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) and/or the Globally Harmonized System of Classification of Chemicals (GHS). In the absence of further information, and in accordance with the precautionary principle, the substance is considered to be at least eye irritating Category 2.
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).
