This substance (52 - 100%) is classified into Division 5.2 and subsidiary risks 1 (UN3112 (Type B)) in UNRTDG. In addition, it needs to be subjected to temperature control, and its control temperature and emergency temperature is -15 degC and -5 degC, respectively.
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 rat LD50 value of 2140 mg/kg (DFGMAK-Doc 3 (1992)), the substance was classified as "Not classified" in the JIS classification (corresponding to Category 5 in the UN-GHS classification).
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Not classified - - - - Based on the rabbit LD50 value of 2025 mg/kg (HSDB (2002)), the substance was classified as "Not classified" in the JIS classification (corresponding to Category 5 in the UN-GHS classification).
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.
The substance was classified as Category 2 based on the documented case of "moderate irritation" (DFGMAK-Doc 3 (1992)) resulted from the test in which the undiluted substance was applied to rabbits.
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.
The substance was classified as Category 1 based on the documented case of "very severe irritation" (DFGMAK-Doc 3 (1992)) resulted from the test in which the undiluted substance was applied to the rabbit's eye.
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 - - - - The classification was not possible due to lack of data. As relevant information, it was reported that the rats revealed some clinical signs related to irritation by exposure at the concentrations of 9 - 13 ppm for 3 weeks (PATTY, 5th (2001)). But there was no concrete description.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
