| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Category 2 |
|
Danger | H300: Fatal if swallowed |
P301+P310: IF SWALLOWED: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling. P270: Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. P321: Specific treatment （see ... on this label）. P330: Rinse mouth. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
SPECIES: Rat ENDPOINT: LD50 VALUE: 11.5mg/kg REFERENCE SOURCE: PATTY (5th,2001) |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Dermal） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid (GHS definition) |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | There is a description about vapor pressure "1000degC is still very low" (Pesticide Manual, 13th, 2003). Therefore, it was thought that exposure to vapors at room temperatures was almost impossible, and it was regarded to be out of classification. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Data suitable for a classification according to relationships with phosphinesis not found, and it cannot be classified. |
| 2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Category 2 |
|
Warning | H315: Causes skin irritation |
P302+P352: IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water. P332+P313: If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention. P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling. P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. P321: Specific treatment （see ... on this label）. P362: Take off contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. |
There is description which indicates skin irritation on human (SITTIG (4th, 2002), HSFS (1998), ICSC (J) (1997)). But the test data used as the determined indicators of Category 2 or 3 was not found, it was set as Category 2 from a viewpoint of safety. |
| 3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 2A-2B |
|
Warning | H319: Causes serious 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. P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. |
Although it has descriptions which indicate eye irritation to the human (SITTIG, HSFS (1998), ICSC (J)(1997) (4th, 2002)), the test data used as the index of subdivision was not found. So it was classified into Category 2A-2B. [Indication] 2A is recommended based on the safety, when the Category needs to be detail. |
| 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 | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 2 (cardiovascular system, respiratory system, nervous system, liver, kidney) |
|
Warning | H371: May cause damage to organs (cardiovascular system, respiratory system, nervous system, liver, kidney) |
P309+P311: IF exposed or if you feel unwell: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. 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. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
The substance was classified as Category 2 (cardio-vascular system, respiratory system, nervous system, kidneys, liver) based on the 2 reports about rats in RTECS (2004) in Priority 2, and reports about effects in humans in ICSC (J) (1997), SITTIG (4th, 2002), RTECS (2004), and HSDB (2003) in Priority 2. |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Although we found the statements of influence in human lungs, the kidney, and liver in SITTIG (4th, 2002) and HSFS (1998), there was no corroborative data, therefore we could not classify it because of the lack of data. |
| 10 | Aspiration hazard | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 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 96-hour LC50=0.178mg/m3 of fishes (Bluegill) (EHC73, 1988). |
| 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 ... |
Classified into Category 1, since acute toxicity was Category 1, and it is a metallic compound, behavior in water and bioaccumulative potential are unknown. |
