PHYSICAL HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Explosives Not applicable - - - - Containing no chemical groups with explosive properties
2 Flammable gases (including chemically unstable gases) Not applicable - - - - Classified as "solid" according to GHS definition
3 Aerosols Not applicable - - - - Not aerosol products
4 Oxidizing gases Not applicable - - - - Classified as "solid" according to GHS definition
5 Gases under pressure Not applicable - - - - Classified as "solid" according to GHS definition
6 Flammable liquids Not applicable - - - - Classified as "solid" according to GHS definition
7 Flammable solids Not classified - - - - Non-flammable (converted into Sb2O3-Sb2O5 when heated, which is further converted into Sb2O4 at a temperature of 780degC, according to Chemical Encyclopedia (1972); oxygen atoms are lost in the reaction, which takes place in stages)
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 - - - - Not pyrophoric when in contact with air at ordinary temperatures (converted into Sb2O3-Sb2O5 when heated, which is further converted into Sb2O4 at a temperature of 780degC, according to Chemical Encyclopedia (1972); oxygen atoms are lost in the reaction, which takes place in stages)
11 Self-heating substances and mixtures Not classified - - - - Non-combustible (converted into Sb2O3-Sb2O5 when heated, which is further converted into Sb2O4 at a temperature of 780degC, according to Chemical Encyclopedia (1972); oxygen atoms are lost in the reaction, which takes place in stages)
12 Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases Not classified - - - - Stable to water; slightly soluble (Merck, 13th, 2001)
13 Oxidizing liquids Not applicable - - - - Classified as "solid" according to GHS definition
14 Oxidizing solids Classification not possible - - - - Classification not possible due to the absence of data, though being inorganic compounds containing oxygen.
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable - - - - Not organic compounds
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible - - - - No data available

HEALTH HAZARDS
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 - - - - No data available
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Classification not possible - - - - No data available
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 - - - - No data available
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible - - - - Classification not possible based on the guideline, given the existence of toxicity data but absence of existing classification.
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Classification not possible - - - - No data available
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible - - - - Insufficient data available
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - No data available
