Other information regarding health hazardsSkin contact Irritant to the skin. 500mg of solid applied to skin (OECD TG 404 and GLP) with positive result

Eye contact n.d.a. According to low pH (<2) a precautionary approach should be taken with classificationas Eye Irrit. 2.

SECTION 12: Ecological information

12.1. ToxicityEcotoxicity Data are experimentally not accessible. Under standard test conditions, the ferrous ion, Fe2+,

is unstable and is oxidised to the ferric, Fe3+, ion. Ferric iron salts have a high rate ofconversion to insoluble ferric hydroxide, in consequence, Fe2+ is to greater extent removedfrom the test system. Furthermore, iron plays an important role in biological processes, withiron homeostasis being under strict control. In conclusion, iron is not considered to be toxic tothe aquatic environment under normal conditions.

12.2. Persistence and degradabilityPersistence and degradabilitydescription

For inorganic metal salts not applicable (OECD, 2001).

12.3. Bioaccumulative potentialBioaccumulative potential n.a. because iron is an essential trace element for organisms and plays an important role in

biological processes. The uptake of iron is strictly controlled by homeostatic process.

12.4. Mobility in soilMobility n.a. (primary reservoir of naturally occurring iron).
