| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | RTECS (2006) had description of rat LDLo:1500mg/kg, there was no data of LD50 value. Therefore, it could not be classified because category could not be identified. |
| 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 | 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 |
| 4 | Skin sensitization | Category 1 |
|
Warning | H317: May cause an allergic skin reaction |
P302+P352: IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water. P333+P313: If skin irritation or rash occurs: Get medical advice/attention. P261: Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. P272: Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace. P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. P321: Specific treatment （see ... on this label）. P363: Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Since we found a description that an allergic reactions is acknowledged in a hand or an arm in IARC 8 (1975) in human and it was classified into Sh (skin sensitization) according to DFG (MAK/BAT, 2004), we judged that it was suitable for the judging standard of skin sensitization, and we classified it to be Category 1. |
| 5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Category 1B |
|
Danger | H340: May cause genetic defects |
P308+P313: IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention. P201: Obtain special instructions before use. P202: Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. P281: Use personal protective equipment as required. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Since there is a positive result (RTECS, 2006) by the specific locus test using the mouse which is an in vivo multigeneration mutagenicity test using a germ cell, it is set as Category 1B. |
| 6 | Carcinogenicity | Category 2 |
|
Warning | H351: Suspected of causing cancer |
P308+P313: IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention. P201: Obtain special instructions before use. P202: Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. P281: Use personal protective equipment as required. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
It was classified into the category 2 (EU-Annex I, 2006) in EU. But it was classified into group 2B (IARC Suppl.7, 1987) in IARC, 2B in Japan Assoc. of Industrial Health (industrial hygene academic society recommentation, 2005), and R (NTP RoC 11th, 2005) in NTP. So it was considered as Category 2 based on assessment of clear IARC of assessment time, Japan Assoc. of Industrial Health, and NTP. |
| 7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data |
| 8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No 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） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Insufficient data available. |
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Long-term） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data |
