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 Classification not possible - - - - No data available
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 Classification not possible - - - - No data available
11 Self-heating substances and mixtures Classification not possible - - - - Test methods applicable to liquid substances are not available (melting point: 133.3degC, SRC (2006), test temperature: 140degC).
12 Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases Not applicable - - - - Containing no metals or metalloids (B, Si, P, Ge, As, Se, Sn, Sb, Te, Bi, Po, At)
13 Oxidizing liquids Not applicable - - - - Classified as "solid" according to GHS definition
14 Oxidizing solids Not applicable - - - - Organic compounds containing chlorine and oxygen (but not fluorine), with the chlorine and oxygen bound to carbon and hydrogen (but not to other elements)
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable - - - - Organic compounds containing no "-O-O-" structure
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible - - - - Test methods applicable to solid substances with melting point of >55degC are not available.

HEALTH HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Acute toxicity (Oral) Not classified - - - - Based on the rat LD50 (oral route) value of >15,000mg/kg (RTECS (2006)).
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Not classified - - - - Based on the rat LD50 (dermal route) value of >5,000mg/kg (RTECS (2006)).
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable - - - - Due to the fact that the substance is a solid according to the GHS definition and inhalation of its gas is not expected.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) Classification not possible - - - - Insufficient data available
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Classification not possible - - - - Insufficient data available
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Category 3 - Warning H316: Causes mild skin irritation P332+P313: If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention. Based on the description in the report on rabbit skin irritation tests (RTECS (2006)): "Mild" (though the results are those of 24 (not 4) hours).
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Category 2B - Warning H320: Causes eye irritation P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
P337+P313: If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.
P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.
Based on the description in the report on rabbit eye irritation tests (RTECS (2006)) "Mild."
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 - - - - No data available
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - - Classification is not possible due to the insufficiency of data. In the only available teratogenicity study (priority rating of 2), evidence of adverse effects on offspring development (muscular skeletal anomalies) was found at doses at which parental toxicity is unknown (RTECS (2006)).
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Classification not possible - - - - No data available
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Category 2 (blood system) Warning H373: May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (blood system) P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P314: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Based on the evidence from animal studies including "normocytic anemia" (RTECS (1996)). The effects on experimental animals were observed at dosing levels within the guidance value ranges for Category 2.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - No data available

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Acute) Category 1 Warning H400: Very toxic to aquatic life P273: Avoid release to the environment.
P391: Collect spillage.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
It was classified into Category 1 from 48 hours EC50=0.383mg/L of the crustacea (Daphnia magna) (Agricultural Chemical Registration Data, 2004).
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) Category 1 Warning H410: Very toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects P273: Avoid release to the environment.
P391: Collect spillage.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Since acute toxicity was Category 1 and there was no rapidly degrading (BIOWIN), and since there wasbio-accumulation (log Kow=4.69 (PHYSPROP Database, 2005)), it was classified into Category 1.
