PHYSICAL HAZARDS
| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Explosives | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | There are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule. |
| 2 | Flammable gases （including chemically unstable gases） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Liquid at room temperature (Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. MSDS (Access on Sept. 2010)). |
| 3 | Aerosols | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Not aerosol products. |
| 4 | Oxidizing gases | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Liquid at room temperature (Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. MSDS (Access on Sept. 2010)). |
| 5 | Gases under pressure | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Liquid at room temperature (Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. MSDS (Access on Sept. 2010)). |
| 6 | Flammable liquids | Category 3 |
|
Warning | H226: Flammable liquid and vapour |
P303+P361+P353: IF ON SKIN （or hair）: Remove/Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/shower. P370+P378: In case of fire: Use ... for extinction. P403+P235: Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep cool. P210: Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking. P233: Keep container tightly closed. P240: Ground/bond container and receiving equipment. P241: Use explosion-proof electrical/ventilating/lighting/.../equipment. P242: Use only non-sparking tools. P243: Take precautionary measures against static discharge. P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Since its flash point reported 49 degC (closed-cup) (Sigma-Aldrich MSDS (Access on Sept. 2010)) is >= 23 degC and <= 60 degC, the substance corresponds to Category 3. |
| 7 | Flammable solids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Liquid at room temperature (Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. MSDS (Access on Sept. 2010)). |
| 8 | Self-reactive substances and mixtures | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Although it contains chemical groups (unsaturated C-C bonds) associated with explosive properties in the molecule, classification is not possible due to lack of additional data. |
| 9 | Pyrophoric liquids | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 10 | Pyrophoric solids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Liquid at room temperature (Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. MSDS (Access on Sept. 2010)). |
| 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 | - | - | - | - | The chemical structure of 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 | - | - | - | - | The substance is an organic compound containing oxygen (but not chlorine or fluorine) which is chemically bonded only to carbon or hydrogen. |
| 14 | Oxidizing solids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Liquid at room temperature (Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. MSDS (Access on Sept. 2010)). |
| 15 | Organic peroxides | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Organic compounds containing no bivalent -O-O- structure. |
| 16 | Corrosive to metals | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Based on the rat LD50 value of 3910 mg/kg (HSDB (2003)), the substance was classified as "Not classified" in the JIS classification (corresponding to Category 5 in the UN-GHS classification). |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Dermal） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Liquid (room temperature) |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Insufficient data were available. As for the information from the "List 3" information source designated in the GHS classification guidance for the Japanese government, the mouse LC50 value of 16.2 mg/L was reported (RTECS (2006), original literature: "Vrednie chemichescie veshestva, galogen I kislorod sodergashie organicheskie soedinenia", Bandman A. L. et al., Chimia, 1994. 168, (1984)). However, exposure time was unknown due to no description. |
| 2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 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 | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 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） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Long-term） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 12 | Hazardous to the ozone layer | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | This substance is not listed in Annexes to the Montreal Protocol. |
