1,1-dichloroethylene

GHS

General Information

Name:

1,1-dichloroethene (Stricter Harmonised classification)

Implementation:

EU

Remarks:

The following harmonised classification is available for this substance in Annex VI to Regultion (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP Regulation):

Flam. Liquid 1 (H224: Extremely flammable liquid and vapour)

Acute Tox. 4 (H332: Harmful if inhaled)

Carc. 2 ( H351: Suspected of causing cancer <state route of exposure if it is conclusively proven that no other routs of exposure cause the hazard>).

Based on data currently available for this substance and the most recent provisions of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (up to ATP 10), the harmonised classification has been reviewed. A stricter classification (hazard classes and/or differentiations) is therefore proposed..
