HEALTH HAZARDS
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 ...
Rat LD50 value: 460mg/kg (RTECS, 2006, SITTIG 4th, 2002, HSDB, 2006) and 770mg/kg (HSDB, 2006). Based on the data above, it was classified to category 4.
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Category 4 Warning H312: Harmful in contact with skin P302+P352: IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water.
P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
P312: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell.
P322: Specific treatment (see ... on this label).
P363: Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
It was set as Category 4 based on rabbit LD50 value: 2000mg/kg (RTECS, 2006).
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 - - - - There was the description stating rat LCLo (4 hours) value: 0.012mg/L (RTECS (2006)). But there is no data of LC50 value. Therefore, it cannot be classified since the category cannot be specified.
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Category 3 - Warning H316: Causes mild skin irritation P332+P313: If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention. From description that slight erythema was admitted in the test applied to the skin of the rabbit (the exposure time was unknown) (ACGIH (7th, 2001)), it was judged that there was mild irritation, and it was set to Category 3.
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.
Based on the description in ACGIH (7th, 2001) that in the study applied to the eye of the rabbits, although the changes in the iris were unknown, the corneal cloudings and conjunctiva stimulativeness were acknowledged. However, there were no descriptions about resilience and we could not categorized it deleberately. Therefore we classified it as Category 2A-2B.
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available
6 Carcinogenicity Not classified - - - - Since it was classified into A4 in ACGIH (ACGIH 7th, 2001), it was considered as the outside of Category.
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - - Classification not possible due to lack of data
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Category 2 (nervous system), Category 3 (respiratory tract irritation) Warning H371: May cause damage to organs (nervous system)
H335: May cause respiratory irritation (respiratory tract irritation)
P309+P311: IF exposed or if you feel unwell: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.
P270: Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
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.
Because of descriptions in ICSC (J) (1995), HSFS (2005), and SITTIG (4th, 2002) referring to that respiratory tracts were stimulated and nervous systems were affected, it was judged as Category 2 (nervous system) and Category 3 (respiratory tracts stimulativeness).
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible - - - - Although there is description that the clear toxic effect was not observed in two year feeding oral administration tests on rats and dogs (ACGIH (7th, 2001)) It is a test result with a low dose within the guidance value range of Category 1, and there was no test data in high administration dose tested to judge it as out of Category, it cannot be classified.
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 96-hour LC50=1800microg/Lof fishes (Bluegill) (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=3.42(PHYSPROP Database, 2005)).
