Changed Water Hazard Classes 28-04-2015 to 04-07-2016

We actualize the WHC classifications for our substance data pool in accordance with the listings of the German Federal Environmental Agency (UBA “Rigoletto”). In the a.m. period there were some changes of classification as well as changes of the status (e.g. the confirmation of the classification of Annex 2 VwVwS by the KBwS). In the below we name classification changes resp. classifications of substances in our inventory (EFFA substances are marked *).
