Based on LC50(4hr) = 0.798mg/L obtained by having converted mouse 1-hour LC50 value (319ppm) (RTECS (1997) into the value for 4 hours, it was classified as Category 2. In addition, the saturated concentration of this product is 2.6*10^(4)ppm, and it was presumed that the inhalation test was done with steam. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Category 1A-1C |
|

It was set as category 1A-1C since it was classified in "C;R34" according to the European risk phrase, in addition to the description that corrosive and critical irritation is indicated to human skin in Priority 2 ( ICSC (2005), SITTIG (4th, 2002), HSFS (2001)). [view] It is more desirable to be set as 1A from a viewpoint of safety, when further categorizing 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. |
In addition to being skin corrosive substances (Category 1), in Priority 2, there are descriptions which indicates corrosive and severe deep thermal burns to the human eye (ICSC (2005), HSDB (2003), SITTIG (4th, 2002), HSFS (2001)). So it was classified into Category 1. |

| 8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 2 (respiratory system) |
|
Warning | H371: May cause damage to organs (respiratory system) |
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 ... |
It was considered as Category 2 (respiratory systems). Based on the description that it stimulates the respiratory systems, it has caustic to a respiratory tracts and causes pulmonary edemas at high exposure to humans (ICSC (2005), SITTIG (4th, 2002), HSFS (2001)) in document of Priority 2. |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Although the description in Priority 2 that there is a possibility of affecting lungs by repeated exposure (SITTIG (4th, 2002)), it was presupposed that it could not be classified for 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） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Long-term） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
