11. Toxicological information

Acute inhalative toxicity: Harmful by inhalation. Acute dermal toxicity: The product is irritant to skin and mucous membranes. Harmful in contact with skin. Sensitizing: May cause sensitization by skin contact.

12. Ecological information

Other information on ecology: The product contains organic solvents which are insoluble in water. According to the requirements of the ATV regulations for the dis charge of wastewater from commercial and industrial plant, organic solvents which are immiscible with water can only be dis charged to an extent which corresponds to their solubility in water. The local discharge regulations take precedence.

13. Disposal considerations

Waste code(EWC): 140603 The valid EWC wast code numbers are source-related. The manufacturer is therefore unable to specify EWC waste codes for the articles or products used in the various sectors. The EWC codes listed are intended as a recommendation for users. We will be happy to advise you. Product disposal: Waste incineration with the approval of the responsible local authority.
