| Classification |
Tricresyl phosphates containing at least one ring of o-cresol (six
isomers) are classified for toxic effects (T;R39/23/24/25 - toxic: danger of very serious
irreversible effects through inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed) and for
environmental effects (N;R51/53 - toxic to aquatic organisms, may cause long-term adverse
effects in the aquatic environment). (MM 1997). Tricresyl phosphates not containing an o-cresol
ring (four isomers) are classified for acute effects (Xn;R21/22 - harmful in contact with
skin and if swallowed) and for environmental effects (N;R51/53 - toxic to aquatic
organisms, may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment). (MM 1997). |
