12 Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases Not applicable - - - - The chemical structure of the substance does not contain metals or metaloids(B, Si, P, Ge, As, Se, Sn, Sb, Te, Bi, Po, At).
13 Oxidizing liquids Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
14 Oxidizing solids Not applicable - - - - Organic compounds containing chlorine (but not oxygen and fluorine) and the chlorine is chemically bonded only to carbon (but not to other elements).
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable - - - - Organic compounds containing no -0-0- structure

P361: Remove/Take off immediately all contaminated clothing.
P363: Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... 		It was set as Category 3 based on rabbit LD50 = 850mg/kg (ACGIH (2001)).
1 Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
1 Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） Classification not possible - - - - No data available
1 Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） Classification not possible - - - - No data available
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Category 2 Warning H315: Causes skin irritation P302+P352: IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water.
P332+P313: If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention.
P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.
P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
P321: Specific treatment （see ... on this label）.
P362: Take off contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. 		It was classified as Category 2 based on the statement that it has a possibility of causing irritation and disorder to the skin on contact (SITTIG (4th, 2002)).
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Category 2A-2B Warning H319: Causes serious 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.
P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. 		There was a statement of the purport that there is a possibility of doing a stimulus and a disorder to an eye by contact by humans (HSFS (2000), SITTIG (4th, 2002)), and since there was no description that how degrees, it was set as Category 2A-2B.
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 - - - - No data available
6 Carcinogenicity Not classified - - - - Based on the category by ACGIH being A4, it carried out the outside of Category.
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - - Since although there was a description that dysgenesis in neonatal's head and faceof rabbit (RTECS (2004)), there was no statements about content and about levels of abnormalities and there was no data in others, it presupposed that it cannot classify since data is insufficient.
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Category 3 （Narcotic effects, Respiratory tract irritation） Warning H336: May cause drowsiness or dizziness (narcotic effects, respiratory tract irritation)
H335: May cause respiratory irritation (narcotic effects, respiratory tract irritation) 		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.

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 ... 		There is the description that there is a possibility that high concentration dusts may cause dizziness and unconsciousness in humans (SITTIG (4th, 2002)), there is the description that a nose and a throat are stimulated in humans (HSFS (2000), SITTIG (4th, 2002)), and it is classified into Category 3 (anesthetic actions, respiratory irritation) .
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Category 2 (liver, kidney) Warning H373: May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (liver, kidney) P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P314: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... 		It was classified to as Category 2 (liver, kidney) based on the statement that there is a possibility of doing a damage to liver and the kidney in human as effects of long term or repeated exposure (SITTIG (4th, 2002)).
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - No data available

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Acute） Category 2 - - H401: Toxic to aquatic life P273: Avoid release to the environment.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... 		It was classified into Category 2 from 48-hour EC50=2.2ppm of Crustacea (Daphnia magna) (AQUIRE, 2003).
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Long-term） Category 2 - H411: Toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects P273: Avoid release to the environment.
P391: Collect spillage.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... 		Classified into Category 2, since acute toxicity was Category 2 and supposed not rapidly degrading (BIOWIN), though supposed less bio-accumulative (log Kow=3.41(PHYSPROP Database, 2005)).
