There was description which indicates skin corrosivity in humans (HSDB (2003), HSFS (2004), and SITTIG (4th, 2002)). But there was no animal data used as the index for further categorizing, it was set as category 1A-1C. [view] It is more desirable to be set as 1A from a viewpoint of safety, when further categorizing needs to be performed. | |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 1 | Danger | H318: Causes serious eye damage |
P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. P310: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. |
Although there is no animal experiment data, the condition to the human has the description "severe/corrosive" in HSDB (2003) and HSFS (2004), and also it shows causticity to the skin. Therefore, it was classified into Category 1. | |

The substance was classified as Category 2 (respiratory system) because there are reports in Priority 2 documents (HSDB (2003), HSFS (2004) and SITTIG (4th, 2002)) of effects on the respiratory system such as pulmonary edema in humans. | |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 1 (lung, cardiovascular system) | Danger | H372: Cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (lung, cardiovascular 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 ... |
It is supposed that it has the effects on lungs and the cardiovascular system by as antimony compound (ACGIH-TLV (2004) of Priority 1 document). Since there is description of the influence into the heart and the lungs of humans also (HSFS (2004) and SITTIG (4th, 2002) of Priority 2 document), it was classified into Category 1 (lungs, cardiovascular system). | |
10 | Aspiration hazard | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Since there are many descriptions of pulmonary edema by aspiration of vapor or mist, however, the report by the oral ingestion was not found, in addition, and the dynamic viscosity at 40 degrees C was also unknown (0.87mm2/s at 29.4 degrees C), we could not classify it. |

11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Acute) | Category 1 | Warning | H400: Very toxic to aquatic life |
P273: Avoid release to the environment. P391: Collect spillage. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
It was classified into Category 1 from 96-hour LC50=0.93mg/L of fishes (Red sea bream) (CERI Hazard Data, 2002). | |
11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) | Category 1 | Warning | H410: Very 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 1, since acute toxicity was Category 1, and it is a metallic compound, behavior in water and bioaccumulative potential are unknown. |
