Executive summary:

The skin irritation potential of Pentapropylensuccinic anhydride, reaction products with ethanolamine, sodium and triethanolamine salts was investigated according to the OECD Guideline 404. Erythema in three rabbits up to the score of 3 and oedema in one rabbit up to the score of 1 was obtained for readings at 24, 48 and 72 hours. All effects were reversible within 7 days. Pentapropylensuccinic anhydride, reaction products with ethanolamine, sodium and triethanolamine salts should be classified as R38.

Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The eye irritation potential of Pentapropylensuccinic anhydride, reaction products with ethanolamine, sodium and triethanolamine salts was investigated according to the OECD Guideline 405. Based on the study result Pentapropylensuccinic anhydride, EA/Na/TEA should be classified as R41: risk of serious damage to eyes.
Executive summary:

The eye irritation potential of Pentapropylensuccinic anhydride, reaction products with ethanolamine, sodium and triethanolamine salts was investigated according to the OECD Guideline 405. 0.1 ml of test substance was given into the eye of a rabbit. Severe effects up to reading score of 3 were found for cornea, conjuntivae and chemosis and no indication of recovery was found. On day 7 clear vascularisation was identified. Pentapropylensuccinic anhydride, reaction products with ethanolamine, sodium and triethanolamine salts should be classified as R41: risk of serious damage to eyes.

Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:
well-performed and well-documented study

Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:
well-performed and well-documented study

Effects on skin irritation/corrosion: irritating

Effects on eye irritation: corrosive

Justification for classification or non-classification

Pentapropylensuccinic anhydride, reaction products with ethanolamine, sodium and triethanolamine salts was tested for its skin and eye irritation/corrosion potential in rabbits. Based on the obtained result Pentapropylensuccinic anhydride, reaction products with ethanolamine, sodium and triethanolamine salts should be classified as R38 and R41.
