Classification & Labelling & PBT assessment

GHS

General Information

Name:
Hexylene glycol
Implementation:
EU
Remarks:

The applicable classification for SDS chapters 9, 11, 12, 14 and for the Chemical safety assessment and Exposure scenarios is the self-classification based on study results, which is as follows:


 


- Eye irrit. 2, H319


- Repr. 2, H361d


 


This following classification is the consolidated CLP classification, derived by taking into account both the self-classification based on study results. This classification applies to SDS chapters 1 and 3 and Labelling
