12. Ecological Information
- Ecotoxicity
- No further relevant information available.
- Persistence and degradability
- No further relevant information available.
- Bioaccumulative potential
- No further relevant information available.
- Other adverse effects
- Water hazard class 1: slightly hazardous for water.
- Do not allow undiluted product or large quantities of it to reach ground water, water course or sewage system.
- Rinse off of bigger amounts into drains or the aquatic environment may lead to decreased pH-values. A low pH-value harms aquatic organisms. In the dilution of the use-level the pH-value is considerably increased, so that after the use of the product the aqueous waste, emptied into drains, is only low water-dangerous.
