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. |
It was set as Category 2 from description that the skin is stimulated (HSDB (Access on Jun 2005), HSFS (1999), SITTIG (4th, 2002)). | |
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. |
It was set as Category 2A-2B from description that the eye is stimulated (HSDB (Access on Jun 2005), HSFS (1999), and SITTIG (4th, 2002)). Since there was no data about reparable, detailed categorization did not carry out. | |
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 | - | - | - | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available |
8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 3 (Respiratory tract irritation) | Warning | H335: May cause respiratory irritation (respiratory tract irritation) |
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.

From description in HSDB (Access on Jun 2005), HSFS (1999), and SITTIG (4th, 2002), that the respiratory organ, lungs, and a respiratory tract is stimulated, it was judged that it has respiratory irritant and was considered as Category 3. | |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Classification not possible due to 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 (Long-term) | Category 4 | - | - | H413: May cause long lasting harmful effects to aquatic life |
P273: Avoid release to the environment. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Classified into Category 4, since it is metal and the behavior in the water is unknown, though L(E) C50 <=100 mg/L . |
