Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Irritant / corrosive response data:
Corrosion was noted 1 and 24 h after application as substantiated by severe reddening, very severe edema, and severe corneal opacity. Severe chemosis was noted after 8 days. Cornea could not be examined due to suppuration.
