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

A flash point of 66 degrees C [closed-cup] (Sigma-Aldrich (Access on Feb. 2011)) 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 Classification not possible - - - There is a chemical group present in the molecule associated with a self-reactive property (unsaturated bond), but the classification is not possible due to no data.
9 Pyrophoric liquids Classification not possible - - - No data.
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 contains oxygen which is not chemically bonded to elements other than carbon or hydrogen.
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.

On the basis of an LD50 value of 1010 mg/kg bw for rabbits (HSDB (2002)), it was classified in Category 4.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable - - - "Liquids" according to GHS definition.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) Classification not possible - - - No data.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Classification not possible - - - No data.
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Classification not possible - - - Lack of data.
Besides, this substance is described as a skin irritant (HSDB (2002)), and "mild" irritation in application of 500 mg to rabbit skin is reported in List 3 information (RTECS (2006)), but both details are unknown, therefore, it was classified as "Classification not possible."
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Classification not possible - - - Lack of data.
Besides, this substance is described as a severe eye irritant (HSDB (2002)), but details are unknown, therefore, it was classified as "Classification not possible."
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - No data.
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - No data.
Besides, this substance is described as a potential skin sensitizer (HSDB (2002)), but details are unknown.
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible - - - No data.
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.
Besides, repeated exposure effects of acrylic esters to humans such as pulmonary congestion or hemorrhage, and cloudy swelling of liver and kidney are described (HSDB (2002)).
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - No data.
