Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
With reference the reported scores and the reported reversiblity within 21 days Reaction mass of potassium ethyl octylphosphonate and diethyl octylphosphonate has to be classified as irritant to the skin (H 315: Causes skin irritation) according to the criteria laid down in the EU Classification Labelling and Packaging Regulation (1272/2008/EC).
Executive summary:

Reaction mass of potassium ethyl octylphosphonate and diethyl octylphosphonate was tested for its skin irritant properties in 3 New Zealand rabbits. The study was performed according to OECD Guideline 404.

With reference the reported scores and the reported reversiblity within 21 days Reaction mass of potassium ethyl octylphosphonate and diethyl octylphosphonate has to be classified as irritant to the skin (H 315: Causes skin irritation) according to the criteria laid down in the EU Classification Labelling and Packaging Regulation (1272/2008/EC).
