Additional information
The dermal irritation study in rabbits performed according to OECD guideline 404 revealed that the substance does not meet the classification critera under Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP). The eye irritation study performed according to OECD guideline 405 resulted in signs of irritation not sufficient for classification according to CLP.
Animal data on respiratory irritation are not available.
However, based on human experience obtained from obervations on workers in the manufacturing plant 2,4 -Dichlorobenzotrichloride is considered to be an eye, skin and respiratory irritant and should be classified accordingly.
Effects on skin irritation/corrosion: irritating
Effects on eye irritation: irritating
Effects on respiratory irritation: irritating
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on animal data and/or human observations 2,4 -Dichlorobenzotrichloride is considered as a skin, eye and respiratory irritant.
It is classified wir R36/37/38 according to Directive 67/548/EEC and H315 (Cat. 2), H319 (Cat. 2) and H335 (STOT SE 3) according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
