Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data on LD50 |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
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 | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Based on the statement that there is no irritation with the rabbit (ACGIH (2001)), it was carried out the outside of Category . |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 2A | 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. |
Based on the statement that in the rabbit test, transient mild conjunctival hyperemia, and optical irregularities of the corneal epithelium were seen, and moderate irritation is indicated (HSDB (2005), it was set as Category 2A. | |
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 | 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 | - | - | - | - | It cannot classify due to the lack of information. |
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 2 | - | - | H401: Toxic to aquatic life |
P273: Avoid release to the environment. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Since a potential that relevant toxicity was indicated in the water solubility (3.322mg/L (PHYSPROP Database, 2005)) of this substance could not be denied from 48-hour EC50=19mg/L of Crustacea (Daphnia magna) (MOE eco-toxicity tests of chemicals, 2000), it was classified into Category 2. |
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 bio-accumulative (log Kow=4.13(PHYSPROP Database, 2005), though rapidly degrading (BOD: 83% (Existing Chemicals Safety Check Data)). |
