P372: Explosion risk in case of fire. P374: Fight fire with normal precautions from a reasonable distance. P380: Evacuate area. P401: Store ... P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Since the substance, which is wetted with less than 20% water or alcohol by mass, is prohibited from being transported (Ship Safety Act / Article 5-1(p) of Public Notice of the Ministry of Transport, No.549 of 1979), we determined that it is an unstable explosive. (If the substance is wetted with not less than 20% water or alcohol by mass, it is defined as UN0130 and Division 1.1.) |
| 2 | Flammable gases （including chemically unstable gases） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid |

| 6 | Flammable liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid |
| 7 | Flammable solids | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 8 | Self-reactive substances and mixtures | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Since the substance is classified as an explosive, classification as a self-reactive substance is not applicable. |

| 10 | Pyrophoric solids | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 11 | Self-heating substances and mixtures | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 12 | Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Since the substance can be wetted with water, we determined that it is stable in contact with water and classified it into the "Not classified" category. |
| 13 | Oxidizing liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid |
| 14 | Oxidizing solids | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 15 | Organic peroxides | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Containing no bivalent -O-O- structure in the molecule |
| 16 | Corrosive to metals | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Dermal） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |

| 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 test results are available on this substance. Lead is reported to induce chromosomal aberrations in humans (ATSDR (2007)) and inorganic lead compounds are rated as "3A" for germ cell mutagenicity (which is equivalent to GHS Category 1B to 2) (MAK/BAT (2007). |
| 6 | Carcinogenicity | Category 1B |
|
Danger | H350: May cause cancer |
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 ... |
No test results are available on this substance. As additional background information, inorganic lead is rated as "Group 1B" by IARC V87 (2006). |
| 7 | Reproductive toxicity | Category 1A |
|
Danger | H360: May damage 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 ... |
No test results are available on this substance. However, since inorganic lead compounds are associated with reproductive toxicity in humans (ACGIH-TLV (2007), ATSDR (2007)), this substance was classified into Category 1A. |
| 8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 1 (central nervous system, blood, kidney) |
|
Danger | H370: Causes damage to organs (central nervous system, blood, kidney) |
P307+P311: IF exposed: 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. P321: Specific treatment （see ... on this label）. P405: Store locked up. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
No test results are available on this substance. However, since inorganic lead compounds adversely affect the central nervous system, blood, and kidney in humans (ACGIH-TLV (2007), ATSDR (2007)), this substance was classified into Category 1 (central nervous system, blood, and kidney). |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 1 (central nervous system, blood, kidney) |
|
Danger | H372: Cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (central nervous system, blood, kidney) |
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 ... |
No test results are available on this substance. However, since inorganic lead compounds adversely affect the central nervous system, blood, and kidney (ACGIH-TLV (2007)), this substance was classified into Category 1 (central nervous system, blood, and kidney). |
| 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 2 | - | - | H401: Toxic to aquatic life |
P273: Avoid release to the environment. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Since its 48-hour LC50 for crustaceans (Daphnia magna) is 7 mg/L (AQUIRE, 2007; Bentley et al., 1975), the substance was classified into Category 2. This test was conducted using the test substance which was first desensitized and then neutralized. Even though this process may have changed the chemical properties of the test substance, the processed test substance exhibited toxic effects in an experiment which was reliable following conventional test methods, except for the endpoints. Thus, the substance was classified into Category 2. |
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Long-term） | Category 2 |
|
- | H411: Toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects |
P273: Avoid release to the environment. P391: Collect spillage. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Its classification for acute toxicity is Category 2 and it is estimated not to be rapidly degradable (BIOWIN). Based on this information, the substance was classified into Category 2. |
