| 5 | Gases under pressure | Liquefied gas |
|
Warning | H280: Contains gas under pressure; may explode if heated | P410+P403: Protect from sunlight. Store in a well-ventilated place. | The boiling point is -12degC (Lide (84th, 2003)), and the critical temperature is 122.2degC (HSDB (2006)) - i.e., liquefied gas. |
| 6 | Flammable liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Classified as "gas" according to GHS definition |
| 7 | Flammable solids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Classified as "gas" according to GHS definition |
| 8 | Self-reactive substances and mixtures | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Classified as "gas" according to GHS definition |
| 9 | Pyrophoric liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Classified as "gas" according to GHS definition |
| 10 | Pyrophoric solids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Classified as "gas" according to GHS definition |

| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Dermal） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Due to the fact that the substance is "gas" according to the GHS definition and inhalation of its vapour is not expected. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Due to the fact that the substance is "gas" according to the GHS definition and inhalation of its dust/mist is not expected. |
| 2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 4 | Skin sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Based on the absence of data on multi-generation mutagenicity tests and germ cell mutagenicity tests in vivo, and negative data on somatic cell mutagenicity tests in vivo (micronucleus tests), described in EHC 139 (1992) and ECETOC JACC25 (1994). |
| 6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Insufficient data available |
| 8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 3 （Narcotic effects） |
|
Warning | H336: May cause drowsiness or dizziness (narcotic effects) |
P304+P340: IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. P403+P233: Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed. P261: Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. P271: Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. P312: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Based on the evidence from animal studies including "stooping position, coma, depressed coordination, narcotic effect" (EHC139 (1992)). |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Insufficient data available |
| 10 | Aspiration hazard | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Due to the fact that the substance is a gas at ordinary temperatures. |
| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
