Toxicological information General toxicological information: To the best of our knowledge no harmful effects are to be expected if the product is handled and used properly. 12. Ecological information Persistence and degradability: Ultimate biodegradation: The total of the organic components contained in the product achieve values below 60% BOD/COD or CO2 liberation, or below 70% DOC reduction in tests for ease of degradability. Threshold values for 'readily degradable' (e.g. to OECD method 301) are not reached. The product contains polymere components that are degradable to a large extent. General ecological information: Do not empty into drains, soil or bodies of water. 13. Disposal considerations Product disposal: Waste incineration or treatment plant with the approval of the responsible local authority. The valid EEC waste code numbers are not product-related but are largely source-related. The manufacturer is therefore unable to specify EEC waste codes for the articles or products used in the various sectors. These can be requested from the manufacturer. Disposal of uncleaned packages: Use packages for recycling only when totally empty. 14. Transport information General information: Not hazardous according to RID, ADR, ADNR, IMDG, IATA-DGR. Not subject of the identification regulations. 15. Regulations - classification and identification National regulations/information (Germany): WGK: 1, slightly water-endangering product. (German VwVwS of May 17, 1999 ) Classification in conformity with the calculation method Storage class VCI: 11
