Introduction of GB 30000.28-2013

Rules for classification and labelling of chemicals —Part 28: Hazardous to the aquatic environment 1 Scope This part of GB 30000 stipulates the terms and definitions, classification standards, judgment logic and labels of chemicals hazardous to the aquatic environment. This part is applicable to the classification and labelling of chemicals hazardous to the aquatic environment according to the United Nations Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (Rev.4) (hereinafter referred to as “GHS”). 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
