Other than gaseous preparationsN.I.
4.1 For substances that produce corrosive effects (R34, R35) or irritant effect (R36, R37, R38, R41), the individual concentration limits specified in Table IV determine, when appropriate, the classification of the preparation.
Table IV
Classification of the substance | Classification of the preparation | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
C with R35 | C with R34 | Xi with R41 | Xi with R36, R37 R38 | |
(*) According to the approved classification and labelling guide, when a substance or preparation is classified as corrosive and assigned the risk phrase R34 or R35, the risk of severe damage to the eyes is considered implicit and the risk phrase R41 is not included on the label. Consequently, if the preparation contains corrosive substances with R35 or R34 below the concentration limits for a classification of the preparation as corrosive, such substances can contribute to a classification of the preparation as irritant (R41) or irritant (R36). | ||||
