SOURCES FOR DATA:
PRIMARY DATA FOR THE CALCULATION OF THE HAZARDS HAS PREFERENTIALLY BEEN
TAKEN FROM THE OFFICIAL EUROPEAN CLASSIFICATION LIST, 1272/2008 ANNEX I, AS
UPDATED TO 2012-06-01.
WHERE SUCH DATA WAS LACKING, ON THE SECOND HAND THE DOCUMENTATION ON WHICH
THIS OFFICIAL CLASSIFICATION IS BASED WAS USED, E.G. IUCLID (INTERNATIONAL
UNIFORM CHEMICAL INFORMATION DATABASE). ON THE THIRD HAND, INFORMATION WAS
USED FROM REPUTABLE INTERNATIONAL CHEMICAL SUPPLIERS, AND ON THE FOURTH
HAND FROM OTHER AVAILABLE INFORMATION, E.G. SAFETY DATA SHEETS FROM OTHER
SUPPLIERS OR INFORMATION FROM NON-PROFIT ASSOCIATIONS, WHEREBY THE
RELIABILITY OF THE SOURCE WAS JUDGED BY AN EXPERT. IF, IN SPITE OF THIS,
RELIABLE INFORMATION WAS NOT FOUND, THE HAZARDS WERE JUDGED BY EXPERT
OPINIONS BASED ON THE KNOWN PROPERTIES OF SIMILAR SUBSTANCES, AND ACCORDING
TO THE PRINCIPLES IN 1907/2006 AND 1272/2008.
