Danger | H272: May intensity fire; oxidizer |
P370+P378: In case of fire: Use ... for extinction. P210: Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking. P220: Keep/Store away from clothing/.../combustible materials. P221: Take any precaution to avoid mixing with combustibles/... P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
UNRTDG Class: 5.1; PG II |
| 15 | Organic peroxides | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Inorganic substance |
| 16 | Corrosive to metals | Not classified | - | - | - | - | UNRTDG Class: 5.1 |
| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 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 2 |
|
Warning | H315: Causes skin irritation |
P302+P352: IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water. P332+P313: If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention. P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling. P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. P321: Specific treatment （see ... on this label）. P362: Take off contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. |
It was set as Category 2 from description that the skin is stimulated as affect of the humans (ICSC (J), (1999), HSDB (2005), HSFS (2002)). |
| 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. |
It was set as Category 2A-2B from description that an eye is stimulated as affect of the humans (ICSC (J), (1999), HSDB (2005), and HSFS (2002)). Since the grade and recovery nature of the stimulus were unknown, detailed categorization was not made. |
| 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 | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Since it was classified into NL according to EPA, it carried out the outside of Category. |
| 7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data |
| 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 ... |
From description in ICSC (J) (1999), HSDB (2005), and HSFS (2002), that an airway is stimulated as effect on the humans, it was judged that it has respiratory irritant and was considered as Category 3. |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 2 (blood) |
|
Warning | H373: May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (blood) |
P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. P314: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Based on description of "as effect of long-term or repeated exposure, blood may be affected and methemoglobin may be generated."(ICSC (J)(1999)), target organ was judged as blood, and classified into Category 2. |
| 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 3 | - | - | H402: Harmful to aquatic life |
P273: Avoid release to the environment. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
It was classified into Category 3 from 72-hour EC50=11000microg/L of the algae(Dunaliella) (AQUIRE, 2003). |
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Long-term） | Category 3 | - | - | H412: Harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects |
P273: Avoid release to the environment. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Classified into Category 3, since acute toxicity was Category 3, and behavior in water and bioaccumulative potential are unknown. |
