Trifluoroacetyl chloride

GHS

General Information

Name:

trifluoroacetyl chloride

Implementation:

EU

Remarks:

No data exists concerning the environmental hazard of TFAC. Classification as "hazardous to aquatic environment" is based on read-across with trifluoroacetic acid. The rationale for the read-across approach is the production of trifluoroacetic acid by TFAC in contact with water.
