| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Gas (GHS definition) |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Dermal） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Gas (GHS definition) |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） | Not classified | - | - | - | - | It was considered as the outside of Category. Based on the outline of rat lethal concentration at being exposed for 12.5 hours: >800000ppm (ACGIH 7th, 2001). |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Gas (GHS definition) |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Gas (GHS definition) |
| 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 | Category 2 |
|
Warning | H341: Suspected of causing genetic defects |
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 ... |
There is a positive result by the micronucleus test which used the rat and mouse erythrocyte, which are the in vivo mutagenicity tests using a somatic (ACGIH 7th, 2001, IARC 63, 1995), and there is no positive result by the in vivo genotoxicity study using a germ cell. So it is set as Category 2. |
| 6 | Carcinogenicity | Category 1B |
|
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 ... |
It was classified into group 2A (IARC 63, 1995) in at IARC, 2A (it and) in Japan Assoc. of Industrial Health (industrial hygene academic society recommentation, 2005), A2 (ACGIH 7th, 2001) in ACGIH and R (NTP RoC 11th, 2005) in NTP. So it was considered as Category 1B. |
| 7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 3 （Narcotic effects） |
|
Warning | H336: May cause drowsiness or dizziness (narcotic effects) |
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. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
From description in ACGIH (7th, 2001) and IARC 63 (1995) that headaches or dizziness may be caused in humans by exposure to vapor, it was judged that it had transient and mild affects on the central nervous system, and it was set as Category 3 (anesthetic actions). |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 2 (liver) |
|
Warning | H373: May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (liver) |
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 description that the effects on the liver was observed with the concentration of the guidance value range of Category 2 in the inhalation exposure test for 90 days using the rat and mouse (ACGIH (7th, 2001) and IARC 63 (1995)), we classified into Category 2 (liver). |
| 10 | Aspiration hazard | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Gas (GHS definition) |
| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Acute） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Long-term） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
