Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Category 3 | Danger | H301: Toxic if swallowed |
P301+P310: IF SWALLOWED: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling. P270: Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. P321: Specific treatment (see ... on this label). P330: Rinse mouth. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Category 3 based on SPECIES: Rat; ENDPOINT: LD50; VALUE: 50-100 mg/kg (ACGIH 7th, 2001) and 99 mg/kg (Patty, 5th, 2001; RTECS, 2004) | |
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 | Category 3 | - | Warning | H316: Causes mild skin irritation | P332+P313: If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention. | From the knowledge that the skin is stimulated and a burn injury is caused (HSFS, 1999), and that tributyltin compounds or organic tin compounds indicate skin irritation (DFGOT 1, 1991-atty 5th, 2001; ATSDR, 2005), it was judged that it had slight skin irritation leastways, and was set as 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. |
From knowledge that an eye is stimulated and a burn is caused (HSFS, 1999), and eye irritation is indicated with the organic tin compound (ACGIH 7th, 2001; Patty 5th, 2001; ATSDR, 2005), it is set as Category 2A-2B. In addition, detailed categorization is difficult. | |
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 | - | - | - | - | The organotin compounds is classified into A4 (it cannot classify into a the human carcinogens) in ACGIH. On the other hand, there is also a knowledge that a certain kind of organotin compounds induces cancer to animals (ATSDR, 2005) and data of its this product themselves cannot be found. Therefore, it cannot be classified since the data is insufficient. |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | Category 2 | Warning | H361: Suspected of damaging fertility or the unborn child |
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 embryo fetus fatality and the developmental abnormality (the craniofacial and skeletal muscle system) were seen in the teratogenicity study using rat in the dose which indicates maternal toxicity (ATSDR, 2005; RTECS, 2004), it was set as Category 2. | |
8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 1 (central nervous system), Category 2 (digestive system), Category 3 (respiratory tract irritation) |
Danger Warning |
H370: Causes damage to organs (central nervous system) H371: May cause damage to organs (digestive system) H335: May cause respiratory irritation (respiratory tract irritation) |
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 ... P309+P311: IF exposed or if you feel unwell: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. 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. |
Since in the guidance value of Category 2, gastrointestinal bleedings was observed in the mouse (ATSDR, 2005), and the influence of the central nervous system on human (ATSDR, 2005; ACGIH 7th, 2001; Patty 5th, 2001) and the potential of respiratory irritant (ATSDR, 2005; ACGIH 7th, 2001) as an organic tin compounds are descrived, it was considered as Category 1 (central nervous system), Category 2 (alimentary system), and Category 3 (respiratory irritant). | |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 1 (immune system) | Danger | H372: Cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (immune 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 ... |
Although own data of this product could not be found, since the impacts of effects on the human immune system was suggested by as an organic tin compounds (ATSDR, 2005;ACGIH 7th, 2001-atty 5th, 2001), it was classified into Category 1 (immune systems). | |
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) | 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 48-hour LC50=3.3microg TBT/L (tributyltin acetate concentration equivalent: 4.0microg/L) of Crustacea (Daphnia magna) (EHC15, 1980). | |
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 is Category 1,not rapidly degrading (it hydrolyzed, and tributyltin hydroxides was generated, and remained (existing chemical substances safety inspections data)), and bioaccumulative (BCF=9210 of tributyltin hydroxides (existing chemical substances safety inspections data)). |
