General Information

Name:
3-Nitrotoluene (self classification according to CLP regulation)
Implementation:
EU
Type of classification:
self-classification
Remarks:
Like other nitrotoluenes, a primary toxic effect of 3-nitrotoluene is methaemoglobin formation.
On this basis, the following classification is here recommended.
