GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The substance is not irritating to the skin.
According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 and subsequent adaptations, the substance does not require classification as skin irritant.

Additional information

Skin irritation

The substance was not observed to be irritating to the skin in a reliable in vivo skin irritation study according to EU Method B.4.

Eye irritation

The substance was not observed to be irritating to the eyes in a reliable in vivo eye irritation study according to EU Method B.5.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Skin irritation

The substance does not possess a skin irritating potential based on an in vivo skin irritation study according to EU Method B.4 (1992). The substance does not require classification as skin irritating according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 and its subsequent adaptations.

Eye irritation

The substance does not possess an eye irritating potential based on an in vivo eye irritation study according to EU Method B.5 (1992). The substance does not require classification as eye irritating according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 and its subsequent adaptations.
