11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Basis for assessment:
Toxicological data have not been determined specifically for this
product. Information given is based on a knowledge of the
components and the toxicology of similar products.
Acute toxicity – oral:
LD
50
expected to be > 2000 mg/kg
Acute toxicity – dermal:
LD
50
expected to be above 2000 mg/kg
Eye irritation:
Expected to be slightly irritant.
Skin irritation:

Respiratory irritation:
If vapours are inhaled, slight irritation of the respiratory tract may
occur.
Skin sensitization:
Not expected to be a skin sensitizer.

carcinogenic in animal skin-painting studies. Other components
are now known to be associated with carcinogenic effects.
Mutagenicity:
Data not available.
Other information:
Prolonged and/or repeated contact with products containing
synthetic hydrocarbons can result in defatting of the skin,
particularly in elevated temperatures. This can lead to irritation and
possibly dermatitis, especially under conditions of poor personal
hygiene. Skin contact should be minimized.
12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Basis for assessment:
Ecotoxicological data have not been determined specifically for
this product. Information given is based on a knowledge of the
components and the ecotoxicology of similar products.
Mobility:
Semi-solid under most environmental conditions. Floats on
water. If it comes into contact with soil, it will strongly absorb to
soil particles
Persistence/degradability:
Not readily biodegradable. Major constituents are expected to be
inherently biodegradable, but the product contains components
that may persist in the environment.
Bioaccumulation:
Has the potential to bioaccumulate.
Ecotoxicity:
Poor soluble mixture. Product is expected to be practically
non-toxic to aquatic organisms, LC/EC
50
> 100 mg/L. May cause
physical fouling of aquatic organisms.
(LC/EC
50
expressed as the nominal amount of product required to
prepare aqueous test extract).
