8 Self-reactive substances and mixtures Not applicable - - - - There are no chemical groups associated with explosive or self-reactive properties present in the molecule.
9 Pyrophoric liquids Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
10 Pyrophoric solids Not classified - - - - From information that uses are for insecticides (Ullmanns (E), (5th, 1995)) or antistaling agents for rubber (Organic Compound Dictionary (1985)), it is judged that there is no spontaneous combustibility.

12 Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases Not classified - - - - It is known that it doesn't cause a dangerous reaction to the water on experience of manufacturing or handling. (organic compounds dictionary (1985))
13 Oxidizing liquids Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
14 Oxidizing solids Not applicable - - - - Containing no oxygen , chlorine and fluorine.
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable - - - - Containing no -0-0- structure
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible - - - - Liquid at a test temperature, 55degC. Test methods applicable to solid substances are not available.

4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available
6 Carcinogenicity Category 1A Danger H350: May cause cancer P308+P313: IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention.
P201: Obtain special instructions before use.
P202: Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood.
P281: Use personal protective equipment as required.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... 		About nickel compounds, it was calssified into group 1 IARC (IARC 49 (1990)), the 1st group in Japan Assoc. of Industrial Health (industrial hygene academic society recommentation, 2005), K in NTP(NTP RoC(11th, 2005). And A1 in ACGIH (ACGIH 7th, 2001) about the insoluble nickel compound. So it was considered as Category 1A.
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 - - - - No data available
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） Not classified - - - - Since it was suggested from 96-hour LC50>100 mg/L of fishes (Rainbow trout) (AQUIRE, 2003) that relevant toxicity is not indicated in the water solubility (0.267 mg/L (PHYSPROP Database, 2005)) of this substance, it carried out the outside of Category.
11 Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Long-term） Category 4 - - H413: May cause long lasting harmful effects to aquatic life P273: Avoid release to the environment.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... 		Classified into Category 4, since it is a metallic compound, and behavior in water is unknown, though no acute toxicity is reported within the saturated aqueous solution.
