Justification for classification or non-classification

These findings do not warrant the classification of C14-C20 aliphatics, <2% aromatic hydrocarbons as teratogenic under the new Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 on classification, labeling and packaging of substances and mixtures (CLP) or under the Directive 67/548/EEC for dangerous substances.
