-
-
- - Solid (GHS definition)
3 Aerosols Not applicable
-
-
- - Not aerosol products.
4 Oxidizing gases Not applicable
-
-
- - Solid (GHS definition)
5 Gases under pressure Not applicable
-
-
- - Solid (GHS definition)
6 Flammable liquids Not applicable
-
-
- - Solid (GHS definition)
7 Flammable solid Classification not possible
-
-
- - No data available.
8 Self-reactive substances and mixtures Classification not possible
-
-
- - There is a chemical group associated with explosive properties (N-oxides) in the molecule, but the classification is not possible due to no data.
9 Pyrophoric liquids Not applicable
-
-
- - Solid (GHS definition)
10 Pyrophoric solids Classification not possible
-
-
- - No data available.
11 Self-heating substances and mixtures Classification not possible
-
-
- - No data available.

13 Oxidizing liquids Not applicable
-
-
- - Solid (GHS definition)
14 Oxidizing solids Classification not possible
-
-
- - The substance is an organic compound containing oxygen (but not fluorine or chlorine) which is chemically bonded to nitrogen, but the classification is not possible due to no data.
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable
-
-
- - Organic compounds containing no bivalent -O-O- structure in the molecule.
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible

Rationale for the classification
1 Acute toxicity (Oral) Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data. Besides, there is a report on an LD50 value of > 1,450 mg/kg for rats (ECHA (Access on December 2013)). This information was not used for classification because it is from the information source outside the list.
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable
-
-
- - Solid (GHS definition)
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) Not applicable
-
-
- - Solid (GHS definition)
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data.
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data. Besides, it is described in SIDS (2007) that the category including this substance was assessed to be irritating from the results of a skin corrosion test with rabbits (according to OECD TG 404) on cocoalkyl dimethyl amine oxides (61788-90-7).
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data. Besides, it is described in SIDS (2007) that the category including this substance was assessed to be irritating from the results of an eye irritation test with rabbits (according to OECD TG 405) on cocoalkyl dimethyl amine oxides (61788-90-7).
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data.
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data.
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data. There are no in vivo data on this substance, and as for in vitro, it was negative in a bacterial reverse mutation test (SIDS (2007)). Besides, it is described in SIDS (2007) that the category of amine oxides including this substance was assessed to be not mutagenic.
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data.
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data.
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data. Besides, there is the information that after oral administration to rats, no toxic signs were observed at the concentration (5,000 mg/kg) above the guidance value range (ECHA (Access on December 2013)). The information was not used for classification because it is from the information source outside the list.
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible
-
-
- - Classification not possible due to lack of data.

Rationale for the classification
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Acute) Category 1


Warning
H400 P273
P391
P501
From 72-hour ErC50 = 0.18 mg/L for algae (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata) (SIDS, 2007), it was classified in Category 1.
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) Category 1


Warning
H410 P273
P391
P501
If chronic toxicity data are used, then it is classified in Category 1 due to no appropriate data obtained on rapid degradability, and 72-hour ErC10 = 0.032 mg/L for algae (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata) (SIDS, 2007).
If acute toxicity data are used for a trophic level for which chronic toxicity data are not obtained, then it is classified in Category 2 due to no appropriate data obtained on rapid degradability, and 96-hour LC50 = 2.4 mg/L for fish (Danio rerio) (SIDS, 2007).
By drawing a comparison between the above results, it was classified in Category 1.
12 Hazardous to the ozone layer Classification not possible
-
-
- - This substance is not listed in the Annexes to the Montreal Protocol.
