PHYSICAL HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Explosives Not applicable - - - - Due to dissociation of nitrogen and oxygen from hydrocarbon through the formation of ammonia and water, the saturation of unsaturated bonds and the deposition and separation of its metal components by the catalysts during the hydrorefining process, the substance does not contain chemical groups associated with explosive properties.
2 Flammable gases （including chemically unstable gases） Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
3 Aerosols Not applicable - - - - Not aerosol products.
4 Oxidizing gases Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
5 Gases under pressure Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
6 Flammable liquids Not classified - - - - Its flash point is 249degC (IUCLID (2000)), which is above 110degC.
7 Flammable solid Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
8 Self-reactive substances and mixtures Not applicable - - - - Due to dissociation of nitrogen and oxygen from hydrocarbon through the formation of ammonia and water, the saturation of unsaturated bonds and the deposition and separation of its metal components by the catalysts during the hydrorefining process, the substance does not contain chemical groups associated with explosive or self-reactive properties.
9 Pyrophoric liquids Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
10 Pyrophoric solids Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
11 Self-heating substances and mixtures Classification not possible - - - - Test methods applicable to liquid substances are not available.
12 Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases Not applicable - - - - Due to deposition and separation of its metal components by the catalysts during the hydrorefining process, the substance does not contain metals or metalloids (B, Si, P, Ge, As, Se, Sn, Sb, Te, Bi, Po, At).
13 Oxidizing liquids Not applicable - - - - Due to dissociation of oxygen from hydrocarbon through water formation, and the deposition and separation of its metal components by the catalysts during the hydrorefining process, the substance does not contain oxygen or halogen.
14 Oxidizing solids Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable - - - - Due to dissociation of oxygen from hydrocarbon through water formation during the hydrorefining process, the substance is considered as an organic compound containing no bivalent -O-O- structure.
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible - - - - No data available.

HEALTH HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Acute toxicity （Oral） Not classified - - - - Based on the information that its rat LD50 is > 15g/kg (PATTY (5th, 2001)), the substance was classified into "Not classified".
1 Acute toxicity （Dermal） Not classified - - - - Based on the information that its rabbit LD50 is > 5g/kg (PATTY (5th, 2001)), the substance was classified into "Not classified".
1 Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） Not applicable - - - - Liquid (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. 		As skin irritation tests using rabbits found that the substance is severe irritant (PATTY (5th, 2001)), it was classified into Category 2.
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Category 2B - Warning H320: Causes 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. 		Since rabbit tests (OECD TG 405 GLP) (IUCLID (2000)) identified that the substance is slightly irritating, and the irritation disappeared within 7 days, it was classified into Category 2B.
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - - Maximization tests using guinea pigs (OECD TG 406 GLP) found the substance not skin sensitizing (IUCLID (2000)), which indicated that the substance is to be placed in the "Not classified" category. However, the results were obtained using List 2 datasets, and there are no other study results available. As such, the substance was classified into "Classification not possible".
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible - - - - There are no in vivo study results available, as well as no positive reactions being reported in in vitro mutagenicity tests using several indices; thus, classification is not possible. With regard to in vitro mutagenicity tests, positive results were acquired in Ames tests and mouse lymphoma assays (IARC vol. 33 (1984), IUCLID (2000)).
6 Carcinogenicity Category 1A Danger H350: May cause cancer 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 it is rated as Group 1 by the IARC, the substance was classified into Category 1A. Additionally, it is documented that 80-week dermal administration tests using mice resulted in development of cancer in 31.0% (9 of 29 mice) to 81.0% (34 of 42 mice) of treated mice (IARC vol. 33 (1984)).
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible - - - - In 28-day dermal administration tests using rabbits (IUCLID (2000)), it is documented that levels of SGOT and SGPT increased at the dose (1000 mg/kg/28 days, 90-day conversion value: 311 mg/kg) that is higher than Category 2 guidance values. However, since this is the only information available, classification is not possible due to lack of sufficient data.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - This substance is a hydrocarbon, but its kinematic viscosity is above 20.5 mm2/s at 40 degC (145 mm2/s at 40degC) (CONCAWE 1. product dossier no. 97/108 (1997)). Due to lack of other necessary information, classification is not possible.
