Additional information
Skin irritation
No studies of dermal irritation / corrosion have been performed with the substance and none are proposed, based on scientific considerations and for reasons of animal welfare. In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the in-vitro skin irritation study (required in section 8.1) does not need to be conducted as the available information indicates that the criteria are met for classification as corrosive to the skin.
Eye irritation

In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the in-vitro eye irritation study (required in section 8.2) does not need to be conducted as the available information indicates that the criteria are met for classification as corrosive to the skin.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Fluorine is classified according to the CLP Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 as Corrosive Cat. 1A (H314). In addition, it is proposed to classify the substance as corrosive to eyes (H318).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
