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 - - - "Liquids" according to GHS definition.
3 Aerosols Not applicable - - - Not an aerosol product.
4 Oxidizing gases Not applicable - - - "Liquids" according to GHS definition.
5 Gases under pressure Not applicable - - - "Liquids" according to GHS definition.
6 Flammable liquids Category 4

P370+P378
P403+P235
P210
P280
P501
A flash point of 89 degrees C [closed cup] (IUCLID (2000)) is > 60 degrees C and <= 93 degrees C, therefore it corresponds to Category 4.
7 Flammable solids Not applicable - - - "Liquids" according to GHS definition.
8 Self-reactive substances and mixtures Not applicable - - - Containing neither chemical groups related to explosibility nor those related to self-reactivity.
9 Pyrophoric liquids Not classified - - - It is conceivable that it does not ignite at normal temperatures from an ignition point of 400 degrees C (IUCLID (2000)).
10 Pyrophoric solids Not applicable - - - "Liquids" according to GHS definition.
11 Self-heating substances and mixtures Classification not possible - - - No established test method suitable for liquid substances.
12 Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases Not applicable - - - Not containing metals or semimetals (B, Si, P, Ge, As, Se, Sn, Sb, Te, Bi, Po, At).
13 Oxidizing liquids Not applicable - - - An organic compound that does not contain oxygen, fluorine, or chlorine.
14 Oxidizing solids Not applicable - - - "Liquids" according to GHS definition.
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable - - - An organic compound that does not contain -O-O- structure.
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible - - - No data.

HEALTH HAZARDS

Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Acute toxicity (Oral) Not classified - - - On the basis of an LD50 value of 2400 mg/kg for rats (IUCLID (2000)), it was classified as "Not classified" in the Classification JIS (Category 5 of UN GHS classification).
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Classification not possible - - - No data.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable - - - "Liquids" according to GHS definition.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) Classification not possible - - - Lack of data.
Besides, the saturated vapour pressure concentration (0.722 mg/L) (converted to a 4-hour equivalent: 0.955 mg/L) exposure to rats for 7 hours resulted in no deaths (IUCLID (2000)), but the category could not be determined only from this data.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Classification not possible - - - No data.
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Not classified - - - On the basis of a "not irritating" in a test using rabbits (IUCLID (2000)), it was classified as "Not classified."
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Not classified - - - On the basis of a "not irritating" in a test using rabbits (IUCLID (2000)), It was classified as "Not classified."
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - No data.
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - No data.
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible - - - The Classification is not possible due to no in vivo test data.
Besides, there is a negative or a positive in an Ames test as an in vitro test (IUCLID (2000)).
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible - - - No data.
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - No data.
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Classification not possible - - - No data.
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible - - - No data.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - No data.

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS

Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Acute) Category 3 - H402
P273
P501
It was classified in Category 3 from 48-hour EC50 = 25.6 mg/L for crustacea (Daphnia magna) (IUCLID, 2000).
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) Category 3 - H412
P273
P501
Reliable chronic toxicity data were not obtained.
It was classified in Category 3 due to lack of rapid degradability (BIOWIN), and acute toxicity Category 3.
12 Hazardous to the ozone layer Classification not possible - - - This substance is not listed in Annexes to the Montreal Protocol.
