It was classified as Category 1 from rat LC50 value for 4 hours (46ppm = 0.23mg/L) (ACGIH, 7th, 2001). In addition, the saturated vapor pressure of decaborane was calculated to be 65.6ppm, and it was considered to be steam with the concentration of LC50 value. |

It was set as Category 1 (central nervous systems) and Category 3 (respiratory irritation, anesthesia action). Based on that a spasm, exhaustion, adrenaline rush, and an anesthesia state are seen (ACGIH, 7th, 2001) in 4 hours inhalation administration and the concentration (0.23mg/L) of Category 1 (= <10mg/L) for rat. And an airway is stimulated by inhalation (ICSC, 1997; HSFS, 1999), the central nervous systems might be affected and fatigue, hyperexcitability, and stupor might be generated (ICSC, 1997) in humans. |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 1 (central nervous system) |
|
Danger | H372: Cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (central nervous system) |
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. P314: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Based on description (ACGIH, 7th, 2001;ACGIH-TLV, 2005;ICSC, 1997) that a central nervous systems may be affected in humans, and fatigue, poor concentration, and incoordination may be occured, it was classified into Category 1 (central nervous system). |
