- Executive summary:
The primary skin irritation potential of the test material was investigated in a study which was broadly conducted in accordance with the FHSA guideline 16 CFR 1500.41.
During the study 0.5 g of the test material was applied to both an intact and abraded site on each of six New Zealand White rabbits. The sites were occluded for 24 hours. The patches were then removed and the test sites wiped to prevent further exposure. Evaluation occurred 24 and 72 hours after exposure.
All sites were clear of irritation during the test period and the Primary Dermal Irritation Index was 0.0.
Under the conditions of this study, the test material is not irritating to skin and requires no classification in accordance with the EU criteria.

Additional information
Skin Irritation
The primary skin irritation potential of the test material was investigated in a study which was broadly conducted in accordance with the FHSA guideline 16 CFR 1500.41. During the study 0.5 g of the test material was applied to both an intact and abraded site on each of six New Zealand White rabbits. The sites were occluded for 24 hours. The patches were then removed and the test sites wiped to prevent further exposure. Evaluation occurred 24 and 72 hours after exposure. All sites were clear of irritation during the test period and the Primary Dermal Irritation Index was determined to be 0.0.
Under the conditions of this study, the test material was not irritating to skin and requires no classification in accordance with the EU criteria.
Eye Irritation
The eye irritation potential of the test material was investigated in a study which was broadly conducted in accordance with FHSA guideline16 CFR 1500.42. During the study 0.1 g of the test material was instilled into the left eye of six New Zealand white rabbits, with three of the treated eyes being rinsed after 30 seconds with saline. The animals were observed for three days and the eyes examined at 24, 48 and 72 hours. Irritation was scored according to the method of Draize.
Under the conditions of the study the test material produced minimal irritation to both the unwashed and washed eyes. No classification is required in accordance with EU criteria.
Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:
Only one study available.
The key study was conducted broadly in accordance with the FHSA guideline 16 CFR 1500.41. This reference does not provide a full report with regard to the methods used in this study. However, as most basic key information is reported, the study can be judged as scientifically acceptable. As such, it was awarded a reliability score of 2 in accordance with the criteria of Klimisch (1997).

Justification for classification or non-classification
In accordance with the criteria for classification as defined in Annex I, Regulation 1272/2008, the test material does not require classification for irritation or corrosion to either the skin or eye.
