UNRTDG No. 1511, Class: 5.1(8); PG III.
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable - - - - Inorganic compound
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible - - - - Although 8 is given to Subsidiary risk of UNRTDG by the UNRTDG No. (1511), test methods suitable for solid materials are not established and it cannot be classified.

In Priority 2, there is description that it has critical irritation to human skin (HSFS (2000)), and the diox as constituent elements of this product indicated caustic to the skin, 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.
In Priority 2, there is the description that it has critical irritation to the human eye (HSFS (2000)), the diox as constituent elements of this product indicated causticty to the eye. So it was classified into Category 1.
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 Category 3 (Respiratory tract irritation) Warning H335: May cause respiratory irritation (respiratory tract irritation) 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.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Since in Priority 2, hydrogen peroxide vapor which is constituent elements of this product also indicated respiratory irritant in addition to the description that the human nose and throat are stimulated and coughing and wheezing are caused (HSFS (2000)), it was considered as Category 3 (respiratory irritant).
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible - - - - No data available
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - No data available
