In addition, at the margins of the exposed area slight erythema (Draize score: 2) was observed in one animal after 1 min, 5 min, and 15 min exposure, respectively. At the last reading 8 days after exposure, full thickness necrosis was still present in both animals, irrespective of the exposure time.

Additional information
Skin:
The substance was tested for skin irritation / skin corrosion in a study conducted similar to OECD guideline 404. Two rabbits were exposed to the substance under occlusive conditions for exposure times of 1 min, 5 min, 15 min, and 20 h, respectively. Immediately after removal of the test patches after 1 min, 5 min, and 15 min superficial necrosis was documented. At the 24 h-reading full thickness necrosis was observed in both animals on all treated skin sites, irrespective of the exposure time. Full thickness necrosis persisted until study termination after 8 days. Based on the described test results, the substance is considered to be severely corrosive to rabbit skin.
Eyes:
In a publication an eye irritation test is described which was conducted similar to OECD Guideline 405 (Koch et al. 1985). 0.1 mL of the test substance were applied to the eyes of 9 rabbits. After an exposition time of respectively 4 and 30 seconds, only one animal showed irritation of the cornea, conjunctivae redness and conjunctivae swelling. After an exposition time of 24 hrs, all tested animals showed irritation of the cornea and of the iris, conjunctivae redness and conjunctivae swelling. A severe necrotic effect was observed. Therefore, the substance was concluded to be highly corrosive to the eyes.
In another eye irritation study (non GLP and non-guideline) 0.05 mL of the undiluted test substance (analytical purity > 99%) was applied into one eye of each of two adult New Zealand White rabbits; the treated eyes were not rinsed after application and reading of eye effects was performed 10 min, 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after test item application. Descriptive scores of the raw data were converted into OECD Draize scores. 10 min after application of the test item, signs of chemical burns were observed at conjunctivae and bulbus. Margin of eyelids were chemically burned after 1 hour and at the observation time point 24 hours crusts were noted, which became purulent at the time point of 48 hours. Additionally, staphyloma developed and 72 hours after treatment strong suppuration was described. The eye irritation study is acceptable (reliability 2). Due to development of necrosis and staphyloma, the test item is considered corrosive to the eyes.
Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:
only study available
Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:
The report meets generally accepted scientific standards and is considered as acceptable for assessment.
Effects on skin irritation/corrosion: corrosive
Effects on eye irritation: highly corrosive
Justification for classification or non-classification
Dangerous Substance Directive (67/548/EEC)
The available studies are considered reliable and suitable for classification purposes under 67/548/EEC. As a result the substance is considered to be classified for skin and eye corrosion and labeled as corrosive, R35 (Causes severe burns) under Directive 67/548/EEC, as amended for the 31st time in Directive 2009/2/EG.
Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
The available experimental test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. As a result the substance is considered to be classified into skin irritation/corrosion category 1A (H314: Causes severe skin burns and eye damage) and into eye irritation/corrosion category 1 (H318: Causes serious eye damage) under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, as amended for the sixth time in Regulation EC 605/2014.
