For gases that produce severe effects after repeated or prolonged exposure (R48/route of exposure), the individual concentration limits specified in Table IIIA, expressed as a volume/volume percentage, determine, when appropriate, the classification of the preparation.
Table IIIA
Classification of the substance (gas) | Classification of the preparation | |
|---|---|---|
T | Xn | |
T with R48/ route of exposure | concentration ≥ 5% R48(*) obligatory | 0.5% ≤ concentration < 5% R48(*) obligatory |
Xn with R48/ route of exposure | concentration ≥ 5% R48(*) obligatory | |
(*) In order to indicate the route of administration/exposure the combined R phrases listed in Annex III of Council Directive 67/548/EEC shall be used. | ||
