PHYSICAL HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Explosives Not applicable - - - - There are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecules.
2 Flammable gases （including chemically unstable gases） Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
3 Aerosols Not applicable - - - - Not aerosol products
4 Oxidizing gases Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
5 Gases under pressure Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
6 Flammable liquids Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
7 Flammable solids Classification not possible - - - - Although Sax (11th, 2004) states it as "inflammable", there is no test data, and it cannot be classified.
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 Category 1 Danger H250: Catches fire spontaneously if exposed to air P335+P334: Brush off loose particles from skin. Immerse in cool water/wrap in wet bandages.
P370+P378: In case of fire: Use ... for extinction.
P210: Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking.
P222: Do not allow contact with air.
P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
P422: Store contents under ... 		Category 1 because of UNRTDG No. 2441, Class: 4.2, I
11 Self-heating substances and mixtures Not applicable - - - - Pyrophoric solids
12 Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases Not classified - - - - Although Sax (11th, 2004) had the description that "heat and hydrochloride will be produced if moisture is contacted", it was carried out the outside of category since hydrochloride was nonflammable.
13 Oxidizing liquids Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
14 Oxidizing solids Not classified - - - - Reducing substance (Merck, 13th, 2001)
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable - - - - Inorganic compound
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible - - - - Test methods applicable to solid substances are not available. UNRTDG No. 2441, Subsidiary risks Class: 8

HEALTH HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Acute toxicity （Oral） Category 3 Danger H301: Toxic 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 ... 		There is no data of this product. However, since oral administraion of rat LD50 value as 3 titanium chloride solutions (20% titanium chloride hydrochloride solution) is 130mg/kg (poisonous and deleterious pharmaceuticals foods sanitation councils toxic substances subcommittees information), at least this substance contains the toxicity level of category 3. Therefore, it was classified as category 3.
1 Acute toxicity （Dermal） Classification not possible - - - - There was no data of this substance. Rat dermal LD50 value as 3 titanium chloride solution (20% titanium chloride chloride solution) was 2000mg/kg or more (poisonous and deleterious pharmaceuticals foods sanitation councils toxic substances substances subcommittees information, 2003). But for guessing the toxicity of this substance, data is insufficient.
1 Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） Not applicable - - - - Solid (GHS definition)
1 Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） Classification not possible - - - - No data available
1 Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） Classification not possible - - - - No data available
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Category 1A-1C Danger H314: Causes severe skin burns and eye damage P301+P330+P331: IF SWALLOWED: Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting.
P303+P361+P353: IF ON SKIN （or hair）: Remove/Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/shower.
P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
P304+P340: IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing.
P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling.
P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
P310: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
P321: Specific treatment （see ... on this label）.
P363: Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... 		There is no data of this product. But there is a description that very strong corrosion toxicity was acknowledged in the acute dermal toxicity test of the rat as 3 titanium chloride solutions (20% titanium chloride solution) (therefore, this skin corrosiveness / stimulative study was not done)(pharmaceuticals/ foods sanitation councils toxic substances deleterious substances subcommittees information, 2003), it was rset as Category 1A-1C. [view] It is more desirable to be set as 1A from a safety, when subdivision needs to be performed.
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Category 1 Danger H318: Causes serious eye damage P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
P310: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. 		There was no examination data to the eye. But skin corrosivity is indicated, it is believed that there was causticity also to the eye, it was classified into Category 1.
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 - - - - There is no data from general reproduction toxicity tests (there is only data of the medication in a testis), and data is insufficient, it cannot be classified.
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
