SAFETY DATA SHEET Document number: 07-04-5-0008/0002 Urea Revision No: 0 According to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 Date: 10/3/2021

Value used for chemical safety assessment: LD50 (oral): 14300 mg/kg bw/day. (Reference: Sato, N., Aikawa, K., Sugimoto, T., Kotera, K., Tauchi, K., Tanaka (1977). 11.1.2. Skin corrosion/irritation Classification: No classification is proposed according to available data. Justification for non classification: There is no evidence from animal studies or from human experience that urea is a skin irritant. 11.1.3. Serious eye damage/irritation Classification: No classification is proposed according to available data. Justification for non classification: The results of a guideline-compliant eye irritation study do not trigger classification as an eye irritant. 11.1.4. Respiratory or skin sensitisation Classification: No classification is proposed according to available data. Justification for non classification: Urea is naturally present at relatively high concentrations in human skin (up to 1 % by weight) and is widely used in skin creams for the treatment of dry and irritant skin conditions without any reports of sensitisation reactions (Loden et al., 2002). Therefore, there is no indication that urea is a skin sensitiser or a respiratory sensitiser. 11.1.5. Germ cell mutagenicity Classification: No classification is proposed according to available data. Justification for non classification: Urea is produced by the body in large quantities as a normal product of metabolism and is present in the bloodstream at high concentrations. Urea is therefore considered extremely unlikely to be genotoxic. 11.1.6. Carcinogenicity Classification: No classification is proposed according to available data. Justification for non classification: There is no evidence from animal studies that urea is carcinogenic. The physiological role of urea and level of production by the human body indicates that the substance is not carcinogenic. 11.1.7. Reproductive toxicity Classification: No classification is proposed according to available data. Justification for non classification: There are no studies in animals showing clear evidence of reproductive effects according to CLP regulation. 11.1.8. Specific target organ toxicity — single exposure Based on available data, the criteria for classification are not met. 11.1.9. Specific target organ toxicity — repeated exposure Based on available data, the criteria for classification are not met. 11.1.10. Aspiration hazard Based on available data, the criteria for classification are not met.

SECTION 12: Ecological information 12.1. Toxicity Urea is of inherently very low toxicity to aquatic organisms. Exposure is limited by the action of microorganisms and incorporation of urea into the nitrogen cycle.

12.2. Persistence and degradability Abiotic degradation: Urea is stable in aqueous solution. Hydrolysis is not predicted with respect to the theoretical assumptions of the structure of molecules. Biodegradation: Urea is highly biodegradable in water and soil to ammonia and bicarbonate. The main mechanism of degradation is enzymatic mineralization. Physical- and photo-chemical elimination: Not known. 12.3. Bioaccumulative potential Not expected to bioaccumulate - urea is used in the production of food for certain species of fish. Partition coefficient n-octanol /water (log Kow): See Section 9. Bioconcentration factor (BCF): Based on the value of log Kow, not expected to bioaccumulate. 12.4. Mobility in soil Known or predicted distribution to environmental compartments: Water and soil are the main target segments of distribution in environment due to the physico-chemical properties of the substance. Surface tension: Not expected considering the theoretical assumptions of molecular structure. Adsorption/Desorption: Urea is adsorbed on the soil - adsorption coefficient is 0.037 to 0.064. 12.5. Results of PBT and vPvB assessment Urea does not meet the PBT and vPvB criteria. 12.6. Other adverse effects Not known.

SECTION 13: Disposal considerations 13.1. Waste treatment methods 13.1.1 Product / Packaging disposal Waste code/waste designation according to LoW: EWC: 06 10 99 EWC: 15 01 02 Applying of another waste code, depending on the condition and the process of waste generation is not excluded. 13.1.2 Waste treatment-relevant information Product waste: Depending on the character/ contamination of waste, use as a fertilizer if possible.
