| 8 | Self-reactive substances and mixtures | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Containing no chemical groups with explosive or self-reactive properties |
| 9 | Pyrophoric liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Classified as "solid" according to GHS definition |
| 10 | Pyrophoric solids | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Non-flammable (ICSC, 2004) |
| 11 | Self-heating substances and mixtures | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Non-flammable (ICSC, 2004) |
| 12 | Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Stable to water (water solubility: 37.5g/100mL (26degC), ICSC (2004)) |
| 13 | Oxidizing liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Classified as "solid" according to GHS definition |
| 14 | Oxidizing solids | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data, though being inorganic compounds containing chlorine |
| 15 | Organic peroxides | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Not organic compounds |
| 16 | Corrosive to metals | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Test methods applicable to solid substances are not available |
| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Dermal） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Due to the fact that the substance is "solid" according to the GHS definition. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | ICSC (2002) presents evidence of "reddening," suggesting the skin irritation potential of the substance. However, classification is not possible due to lack of study detail. |
| 3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | ICSC (2002) presents evidence of "reddening," suggesting the eye irritation potential of the substance. However, classification is not possible due to lack of study detail. |
| 4 | Respiratory sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 4 | Skin sensitization | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Based on the absence of data on multi-generation mutagenicity tests, germ/somatic cell mutagenicity tests in vivo and germ/somatic cell genotoxicity tests in vivo, and no positive data on mutagenicity tests in vitro (several indices), described in NTP DB (Access on May 2006). |
| 6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Classification not possible based on expert judgment in the absence of existing classification, though CICAD 33 (2001) provides some data on toxicity studies. |
| 7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Insufficient data available |
| 8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 1 (cardiovascular system, muscle), Category 2 (nervous system), Category 3 (respiratory tract irritation) |
|
Danger Warning |
H370: Causes damage to organs (cardiovascular system, muscle) H371: May cause damage to organs (nervous system) H335: May cause respiratory irritation (respiratory tract irritation) |
P307+P311: IF exposed: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling. P270: Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. P321: Specific treatment （see ... on this label）. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... P309+P311: IF exposed or if you feel unwell: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. P304+P340: IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. P403+P233: Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed. P261: Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. P271: Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. P312: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell. |
Based on the human evidence: "Intentional or accidental ingestion of barium compounds causes gastroenteritis (vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain), hypokalemia, cardiac arrhythmias and skeletal muscle paralysis" (CICAD 33 (2001)), "irritates the eye, skin, respiratory tract; may adversely affect nervous system; may cause hypokalemia; may cause heart/muscle disorder; may lead to death" (ICSC (J) (1999)). Since the priority rating of ICSC (J) (1999) is 2, the effects are classified into Category 1 (cardiovascular system, muscle), Category 2 (nervous system) and Category 3 (respiratory tract irritation). |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Insufficient data available |
| 10 | Aspiration hazard | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Acute） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data |
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Long-term） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data |
