SECTION 11: Toxicological information

Not available.
Conclusion/Summary : Not available.
General : Causes damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure. Prolonged or
repeated contact can defat the skin and lead to irritation, cracking and/or dermatitis.
Once sensitized, a severe allergic reaction may occur when subsequently exposed to
very low levels.
Carcinogenicity : No known significant effects or critical hazards.
Mutagenicity : Suspected of causing genetic defects.
Teratogenicity : No known significant effects or critical hazards.
Developmental effects : No known significant effects or critical hazards.
Fertility effects : No known significant effects or critical hazards.
Other information : Not available.
There are no data available on the mixture itself. The mixture has been assessed following the conventional method of
the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 and is classified for toxicological properties accordingly. See Sections 2 and 3
for details.

Exposure to component solvent vapour concentrations in excess of the stated occupational exposure limit may result in
adverse health effects such as mucous membrane and respiratory system irritation and adverse effects on the kidneys,
liver and central nervous system. Symptoms and signs include headache, dizziness, fatigue, muscular weakness,
drowsiness and, in extreme cases, loss of consciousness.
Solvents may cause some of the above effects by absorption through the skin. Repeated or prolonged contact with the
mixture may cause removal of natural fat from the skin, resulting in non-allergic contact dermatitis and absorption
through the skin.
If splashed in the eyes, the liquid may cause irritation and reversible damage.
Ingestion may cause nausea, diarrhea and vomiting.
This takes into account, where known, delayed and immediate effects and also chronic effects of components from
short-term and long-term exposure by oral, inhalation and dermal routes of exposure and eye contact.
