A flash point of 45 degrees C [closed-cup] (IUCLID (2000)), which is >= 23 degrees C and <= 60 degrees C, corresponds to Category 3. |
| 7 | Flammable solids | Not applicable | - | - | - | "Liquids" according to GHS definition. |
| 8 | Self-reactive substances and mixtures | Not applicable | - | - | - | There are no chemical groups present in the molecule associated with explosive or self-reactive properties. |
| 9 | Pyrophoric liquids | Not classified | - | - | - | It is conceivable that it does not ignite at normal temperatures from an ignition point of 245 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 contains oxygen which is not chemically bonded to elements other than carbon. |

Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Not classified | - | - | - | On the basis of an LD50 value of 3240 mg/kg bw for rats (JECFA FAS 40 (1998)), it was classified as "Not classified" in JIS classification (corresponding to Category 5 in UN GHS classification). |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Dermal） | Not classified | - | - | - | On the basis of an LD50 value of > 2500 mg/kg bw for rats (IUCLID (2000)), it was classified as "Not classified" in JIS classification (corresponding to Category 5 or "Not classified" in UN GHS classification). |
| 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 | Category 2 |  |
H315 |
P302+P352 P332+P313 P264 P280 P321 P362 |
On the basis of "irritating" in a semi-occlusive test applied a nonyl aldehyde mixture containing 90% of this substance to rabbit skins (OECD TG404, GLP) (IUCLID (2000)) and "moderately irritating" in a test applied this substance for 24 hours (HSDB (2009)), it was classified in Category 2. |
| 3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 2B |
|
H320 |
P305+P351+P338 P337+P313 P264 |
On the basis of "slightly irritating" in a test applied a nonyl aldehyde mixture containing 90% of this substance to rabbit eyes (OECD TG405, GLP) (IUCLID (2000)), it was classified in Category 2B. |
| 4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
| 4 | Skin sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
A sensitization test using 25 subjects reported not sensitizing (Magnusson & Kligman method) (IUCLID (2000)), but further details are unknown. Besides, in a human repeated insult patch test, it was assessed as possibly sensitizing because 5 out of 39 subjects (12.8%) showed reactions and 10 out of 39 subjects (25.6%) showed weak reactions to a 25% ethanol solution of a test substance, while it was assessed as not sensitizing because 0 out of 42 subjects showed reactions to 1.25% ethanol solution. (IUCLID (2000)) From the above test results, it was classified as "Classification not possible" due to no clear conclusion on a skin sensitization. |
| 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. |
| 10 | Aspiration hazard | Classification not possible | - | - | - | No data. |
