Slags, lead smelting

GHS

General Information

Name:

Slags, lead smelting

Implementation:

EU

Remarks:

The classification methodology followed is explained in detail in the Chemical Safety Report Part B (Section 3) and the supporting documents Annex I and II (attached in Section 13 of IUCLID). The classification methodology followed was developed under the umbrella of Eurometaux for the non-ferrous metals sector for UVCB substances.
