With a few exceptions, pesticides have low volatility and therefore no criteria are
at present set out for volatility in this Recommendation. The inclusion of such
criteria is unlikely to affect the classification of pesticides by hazard except in
the case of volatile fumigants used in agriculture and food storage. On the other
hand, when the criteria are applied to pesticide formulations based on solvents or
to other chemicals, account must be taken of volatility and consequent inhalation
toxicity
