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 ...
Based on the rat oral LD50 values: 135mg/kg (RTECS, 2004) and 190mg/kg (HSDB, 2003), we adopted the lower value (135mg/kg) to classify the substance as Category 3.
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) Classification not possible - - - - No data available
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Classification not possible - - - - No data available
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.
Since the burn injury was seen in the human skin (HSDB, 2003) and the strong reaction was seen in the skin of rats (RTECS, 2004;HSDB, 2003), it was set as category 2.
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.
Since the strong reaction was seen in Standard Draize Test of a rat eye (RTECS and 2004), it was set as Category 2A-2B. In addition, detailed categorization is difficult.
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Not classified - - - - Since the mouse small core test in negative (CICAD 13, 1999), and it had concluded "Triphenyl tin compound does not indicate genotoxicity" as a result of evaluation of a series of triphenyl tin compound in CICAD 13, 1999. So it is classified as the out of the Category.
6 Carcinogenicity Not classified - - - - There is no this product data. But it is supposed that there is no carcinogenic in the triphenyl tin evaluation having included the this product (CICAD 13, 1999). In addition, the organotin compounds was set to A4 (not classified with a the human carcinogen) in ACGIH (ACGIH-TLV, 2005). Therefore, it carried out the outside of category.
7 Reproductive toxicity Category 2 Warning H361: Suspected of damaging fertility or the unborn child 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 ...
Since the inhibition of implantation is seen in rat (CICAD 13, 1999), in addition the influence of triphenyl tin compounds on reproduction and generating was seen in laboratory animals in the dose which indicates maternal toxicity (CICAD 13, 1999), it was set as Category2.
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Classification not possible - - - - Since data is insufficient. Although it was considered as Category 1 (central nervous systems) based on knowledge of the humans and the animal in the water oxidization triphenyl tin and acetic acid triphenyl tin of the similar substance, but respiratory and nervous system disorders was not observed in human cases by high exposures of the product (CICAD 13, 1999). Refer to triphenyltin hydroxide (ID 1269, Chemical Abstracts Service: 76-87-9) and acetates triphenyl tin (ID 1270, Chemical Abstracts Service: 900-95-8).
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Category 1 (immune system) Danger H372: Cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (immune system) 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.
P314: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
Since in a rat, the affect on immune systems, such as atrophy of the thymus or a spleen, is observed in the guidance concentration range of Category 1(CICAD 13, 1999) and triphenyl tin compounds may affect an immune system and may impair this function (CICAD 13, 1999), it was classified into Category 1 (immune systems).
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - No data available

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS

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 24-hour LC50=0.035mg/L of Crustacea (Daphnia magna) (ECETOC TR91, 2003).
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 is Category 1,not rapidly degrading (it hydrolyzed, and triphenyltin hydroxides was generated, and remained (existing chemical substances safety inspections data)), and bioaccumulative (BCF=7100 of triphenyltin hydroxides (existing chemical substances safety inspections data)).
