11.1 Information on hazard classes as defined in Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008

Acute toxicity

Calculation method: Not classified.

Low oral toxicity.

Alkanes, C14-17, chloro: LD50 (oral,rat) mg/kg > 2000

Skin corrosion/irritation

Calculation method: Not classified.

Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking.

Alkanes, C14-17, chloro: slight skin irritation reported in two studies conducted according to OECD Guideline 404 using undilute C14-17 chlorinated paraffins (40 & 52% chlorination - containing 1% epoxy stabiliser).

Serious eye damage/irritation

Calculation method: Not classified.

Alkanes, C14-17, chloro: slight eye irritation reported in two studies conducted according to OECD Guideline 405 using undilute C14-17 chlorinated paraffins (40 & 52% chlorination - containing 1% epoxy stabiliser).

Skin sensitization data

Calculation method: Not classified.

It is not a skin sensitiser.

Respiratory sensitization data

Calculation method: Not classified.

Germ cell mutagenicity

Calculation method: Not classified.

Alkanes, C14-17, chloro: Not mutagenic to bacteria or in in-vivo mouse bone marrow micronucleus assays.

Carcinogenicity 

Calculation method: Not classified. No evidence of carcinogenic effects. Alkanes, C14-17, chloro: Chlorinated paraffins, as a group of chemicals are not genotoxic. Their lack of genotoxic activity together with the results of other studies leads us to conclude that chlorinated paraffins are unlikely to present a carcinogenic hazard to man under normal conditions of handling and use.

Reproductive toxicity

Calculation method: Not classified. No evidence of reproductive effects. No reported effects on fertility at doses up to 400 mg/kg/day. Alkanes, C14-17, chloro: No effects in conventional development toxicity studies with doses up to 5000 mg/kg/day (rat) and 100 mg/kg/day (rabbit). Mortality due to internal haemorrhaging has been seen in new-born rats, reared by dams fed on high doses of a similar chlorinated paraffin.

Lactation

Calculation method: may cause harm to breast-fed children. No data.

STOT - single exposure

Calculation method: Not classified.

STOT - repeated exposure

Calculation method: Not classified.

Aspiration hazard

Calculation method: Not classified.
