PHYSICAL HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Explosives Not applicable - - - - There are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecules. (Some substances correspond to four alkyl leads and have different physical chemical properties for each. They were not classified in each topic of the physical chemical hazard except those which could be considered as "Not applicable" by their molecular formulas, compositions; etc. Refer to tetramethyl lead (ID No.0046 CAS No.75-74-1) and tetraethyl lead (ID No.0582 and CAS No.78-00-2) as typical four alkyl leads.)
2 Flammable gases (including chemically unstable gases) Not applicable - - - - Liquid or Solid (GHS definition)
3 Aerosols Not applicable - - - - Not aerosol products
4 Oxidizing gases Not applicable - - - - Liquid or Solid (GHS definition)
5 Gases under pressure Not applicable - - - - Liquid or Solid (GHS definition)
6 Flammable liquids Classification not possible - - - - Unidentified substance (Refer to the data of an individual substance)
7 Flammable solids Classification not possible - - - - Unidentified substance (Refer to the data of an individual substance)
8 Self-reactive substances and mixtures Not applicable - - - - There are no chemical groups associated with explosive or self-reactive properties present in the molecule.
9 Pyrophoric liquids Classification not possible - - - - Unidentified substance (Refer to the data of an individual substance)
10 Pyrophoric solids Classification not possible - - - - Unidentified substance (Refer to the data of an individual substance)
11 Self-heating substances and mixtures Classification not possible - - - - Unidentified substance (Refer to the data of an individual substance)
12 Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases Classification not possible - - - - Unidentified substance (Refer to the data of an individual substance)
13 Oxidizing liquids Not applicable - - - - Organic compounds containing no oxygen, fluorine and chlorine.
14 Oxidizing solids Not applicable - - - - Organic compounds containing no oxygen, fluorine and chlorine.
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable - - - - Organic compounds containing no -0-0- structure
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible - - - - Unidentified substance (Refer to the data of an individual substance)

HEALTH HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Acute toxicity (Oral) Classification not possible - - - - The substance cannot be specified (refer to the data of individual substances). [Note] 4 alkyl leads are general terms for the lead compound which four alkyl group (CnH2n+1) combined (formula: (CnH2n+1) 4Pb). Since multiple agents correspond and respective properties also differents, the classification of hazardous property to the health as 4 alkyl leads is difficult. Refer to a tetramethyl lead (ID No.0046, CAS No.75-74-1) and a tetraethyl lead (ID No.0582, CAS No.78-00-2) as typical 4 alkyl leads.
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Classification not possible - - - - A substance cannot be specified (refer to the data of individual substances).
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) Classification not possible - - - - Unidentified substance (Refer to the data of an individual substance.)
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Classification not possible - - - - Unidentified substance (Refer to the data of an individual substance.)
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Classification not possible - - - - A substance cannot be specified (refer to the data of individual substances).
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Classification not possible - - - - We cannot specify the substance (refer to the data of individual substances).
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - - We could not specify the substance (refer to the data of individual substances).
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - - We could not specify the substance (refer to the data of individual substances).
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible - - - - A substance cannot be specified (refer to the data of individual substances).
6 Carcinogenicity Not classified - - - - Since the organic lead was classified into Group 3 in IARC87 (2006), it was considered as the outside of Category. In addition, the tetramethyl lead (ID No.0046, CAS No.75-74-1) and the tetraethyl lead (ID No.0582, CAS No.78-00-2) are considered as the outside of Category as organolead.
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - - Unidentified substance (Refer to the data of an individual substance.)
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Category 1 (nervous system) Danger H370: Causes damage to organs (nervous system) P307+P311: IF exposed: 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.
P321: Specific treatment (see ... on this label).
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
The substance was classified as Category 1 (nervous system) according to the GHS classification of the major tetra-alkyl leads, tetra-methyl lead (ID No.0046, CAS No.75-74-1) and tetraacetyl lead (ID No.0582, CAS No.78-00-2).
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Category 1 (nervous system) Danger H372: Cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (nervous system) 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.
P314: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
According to the GHS classifications of a tetramethyl lead (ID No.0046, CAS No.75-74-1) and a tetraethyl lead (ID No.0582, CAS No.78-00-2) which are typical tetraalkyl leads, we classified it into Category 1 (nervous system).
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - Unidentified substance (Refer to the data of an individual substance.)
