4-hydroxy-4-methylpentan-2-one

GHS

General Information

Implementation:

EU

Remarks:

This classification is the consolidated classification, derived by taking into account both the self-classification based on study results, and the CLP harmonized classification. This classification is relevant for SDS chapters 1 and 3 and Labelling depending on the acetone content for the flammability endpoint.

Self Classification
ATTENTION: The classification for flammability depends on the acetone content in the final product. Please refer to the flash point endpoint conclusion to determine the classification related to your composition.
For your information the substance is classified UN1148[flammable liquid] HazChem class 3 according to the transportation regulation
