P310: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. P320: Specific treatment is urgent （see ... on this label）. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Based on the rat LC50 (4 hours) value of 330ppm, calculated from the testing data of rat LC50 (inhalation of vapour) of 3.04mg/L (1 hour), 3.45mg/L (1 hour) and 4.619mg/L (4 hours) (ACGIH (7th, 2001)), was lower than 90% of the saturated vapour concentration (250,000ppm) under a saturated vapour pressure of 19mmHg (20degC) (equivalent to 2,500Pa (20degC)) (NFPA (13th, 2001)), the substance was considered as "vapour containing substantially no mist" and was classified based on standard values expressed in ppm. |
