ANNEX VI Harmonised classification and labelling for certain hazardous substances Part 1 of this Annex provides an introduction to the list of harmonised classification and labelling, including information listed for each entry and related classifications and hazard statements in Table 3. … 213 unchanged lines … Note W: It has been observed that the carcinogenic hazard of this substance arises when respirable dust is inhaled in quantities leading to significant impairment of particle clearance mechanisms in the lung. This note aims to describe the particular toxicity of the substance; it does not constitute a criterion for classification according to this Regulation. Note X: The classification for the hazard class(es) in this entry is based only on the hazardous properties of the part of the substance which is common to all substances in the entry. The hazardous properties of any substances in the entry also depend on the properties of the part of the substance which is not common to all substances in the group. The latter must be evaluated to assess whether more severe classification(s) (i.e. a higher category) or a broader scope of the same classification (additional differentiation, target organs and/or hazard statements) might apply for the hazard class(es) in the entry. 1.1.3.2. Notes relating to the classification and labelling of mixtures Note 1: The concentration stated or, in the absence of such concentrations, the generic concentrations set out in this Regulation are the percentages by weight of the metallic element calculated with reference to the total weight of the mixture. Note 2: The concentration of isocyanate stated is the percentage by weight of the free monomer calculated with reference to the total weight of the mixture. Note 3: The concentration stated is the percentage by weight of chromate ions dissolved in water calculated with reference to the total weight of the mixture. Note 5: The concentration limits for gaseous mixtures are expressed as volume per volume percentage. Note 7: Alloys containing nickel are classified for skin sensitisation when the release rate of 0,5 μg Ni/cm2/week, as measured by the European Standard reference test method EN 1811, is exceeded. Note 8: The classification as a carcinogen shall apply unless it can be shown that the maximum theoretical concentration of releasable formaldehyde, irrespective of the source, in the mixture as placed on the market is less than 0,1 %. Note 9: The classification as a mutagen shall apply unless it can be shown that the maximum theoretical concentration of releasable formaldehyde, irrespective of the source, in the mixture as placed on the market is less than 1 %. Note 10: The classification as a carcinogen by inhalation applies only to mixtures in powder form containing 1 % or more of titanium dioxide which is in the form of or incorporated in particles with aerodynamic diameter ≤ 10 μm. Note 11: The classification of mixtures as reproductive toxicant is necessary if the sum of the concentrations of individual boron compounds that are classified as reproductive toxicant in the mixture as placed on the market is ≥ 0,3 %. Note 12: The classification of mixtures as reproductive toxicant is necessary if the sum of the concentrations of individual substances covered by this entry in the mixture as placed on the market is equal to, or above, the applicable generic concentration limit for the assigned category, or a specific concentration limit given in this entry. 1.1.4. Information related to the classification and labelling of each entry in Table 3.2 1.1.4.1. Classification codes The classification for each category of danger (as defined in Article 2(2) of Directive 67/548/EEC) is normally presented in the form of an abbreviation representing the category of danger together with the appropriate risk phrase or phrases. However, in some cases (i.e. substances classified as flammable, sensitising and some substances classified as dangerous for the environment) the risk phrase alone is used; … 56,191 unchanged lines … S: 61 650-055-00-5 silver sodium zirconium hydrogenphosphate 422-570-3 155925-27-2 N; R50-53 N R: 50/53 S: 60-61
