STOT SE 3, H336
For the text of the H-phrases and classification codes (GHS/CLP), see Section 16.
The substances named in this section are given with their actual, appropriate classification!
For substances that are listed in appendix VI, table 3.1 of the regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008 (CLP regulation) this means that all
notes that may be given here for the named classification have been taken into account.
If, for example, the note P is applied for a hydrocarbon then this has already been taken into account for the classification named
here.
Quote: "Note P - The classification as a carcinogen or mutagen need not apply if it can be shown that the substance contains less
than 0,1 % w/w benzene (EINECS No 200-753-7)."
Article 4 of the regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008 (CLP regulation) was also observed and taken into account for the classification
named here.
In certain cases, the symptoms of poisoning may only appear after an extended period / after several hours.
4.3 Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
n.c.
In addition to information given in this section, relevant information can also be found in section 8 and 6.1.
