Description of key information

The substance is classified as corrosive to skin and eyes based on its low pH value. In accordance with REACH Annex VII/VIII Column 2 this test does not need to be conducted. No data is available to assess the potential respiratory irritation effects of the substance.

Endpoint:
skin irritation: in vitro / ex vivo
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a strong acid (pH ≤ 2.0) or base (pH ≥ 11.5) and the available information indicates that it should be classified as skin corrosion (Category 1, 1A, 1B or 1C)

Endpoint:
eye irritation: in vitro / ex vivo
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is classified as skin corrosion, leading to classification as serious eye damage (Category 1)
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is a strong acid (pH <= 2.0) or base (pH => 11.5) and the available information indicates that it should be classified as serious eye damage (Category 1)

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

The pH of the substance is low indicating that it is a strong acid. Therefore a conservative assessment of skin corrosion category 1 (causes severe skin burns and eye damage) has been applied in accordance with the CLP regulation (EC No. 1272/2008, as amended). No data is available to assess the potential respiratory irritation effects of the substance.
