| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Category 4 |
|
Warning | H302: Harmful if swallowed |
P301+P312: IF SWALLOWED: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell. P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling. P270: Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. P330: Rinse mouth. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Based on the rat LD50 (oral route) value of 380mg/kg representing the lower of the two testing data, 492mg/kg and 380mg/kg (PATTY (4th, 2000)). |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Dermal） | Category 2 |
|
Danger | H310: Fatal in contact with skin |
P302+P350: IF ON SKIN: Gently wash with plenty of soap and water. P262: Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling. P270: Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. P310: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. P322: Specific treatment （see ... on this label）. P361: Remove/Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. P363: Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Based on the rabbit LD50 (dermal route) value of 126mg/kg representing the lowest of the testing data, 630-1,000mg/kg and 126-200mg/kg (PATTY (4th, 2000)). |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Due to the fact that the substance is "liquid" according to the GHS definition and inhalation of its gas is not expected. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Insufficient data available |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Category 3 | - | Warning | H316: Causes mild skin irritation | P332+P313: If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention. | Based on the description in the report on rabbit skin irritation tests (exposure duration unknown) (PATTY (4th, 2000)): "Slightly irritating." |
| 3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 2B | - | Warning | H320: Causes eye irritation |
P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. P337+P313: If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention. P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling. |
Based on the description in the report on rabbit eye irritation tests (PATTY (4th, 2000)): "Slightly irritating." |
| 4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 4 | Skin sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Based on the absence of data on in vivo tests and no positive data on in vitro mutagenicity tests (several indices), described in NTP DB (Access on June 2006) and PATTY (4th, 2000). |
| 6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Insufficient data available |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 10 | Aspiration hazard | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Acute） | Category 3 | - | - | H402: Harmful to aquatic life |
P273: Avoid release to the environment. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
It was classified into Category 3 from 48 hours EC50=19mg/L of the crustacea (Daphnia magna) (MOE eco-toxicity tests of chemicals, 1997). |
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Long-term） | Category 3 | - | - | H412: Harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects |
P273: Avoid release to the environment. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Although acute toxicity was Category 3 and the potential was low (BCF=7.5(Existing Chemical Safety Inspections Data)), since there was no rapidly degrading (the decomposition by BOD: 0%(Existing Chemical Safety Inspections Data)), it was classified into Category 3. |
