Since the substance, which is wetted with less than 50% water by mass, is defined as UN0224 and Division 1.1, it was classified into Division 1.1. (Since the substance wetted with not less than 50% water by mass is defined as UN1571 and a desensitized explosive, it was classified into the "Not classified" category.) |

| 9 | Pyrophoric liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid (GHS definition) |
| 10 | Pyrophoric solids | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Since the substance is reported to be non-flammable (Hommel (1991) Card No. 815), it was classified into the "Not classified" category. |
| 11 | Self-heating substances and mixtures | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Since the substance is reported to be non-flammable (Hommel (1991) Card No. 815), it was classified into the "Not classified" category. |
| 12 | Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases | Not classified | - | - | - | - | Based on its water solubility value (Hommel (1991)), we determined that the substance is stable in contact with water and classified it into the "Not classified" category. |

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. |
Although no test results on this substance are available, barium and soluble compounds are reported to be skin irritants (ACGIH (2001)). In addition, barium is documented to be a mild skin irritant in rabbits (EHC 107 (1990)). Based on these reports, the substance was classified into Category 2. |

Although no test results on this substance are available, barium and soluble compounds are reported to be eye irritants (ACGIH (2001)). In addition, barium is documented to be a severe eye irritant in rabbits (EHC 107 (1990)). Based on these reports, the substance was classified into Category 2A. |

Although no test results on this substance are available, barium and soluble compounds are attributed to the stimulation of the gastrointestinal tract, myocardium, and other muscles (ACGIH (2001)). In addition, clinical features of barium poisoning include acute gastroenteritis and loss of deep reflexes with onset of skeletal muscular paralysis (EHC 107 (1990)). In animal experiments, the effects of barium ingestion include salivation, nausea, diarrhea, tachycardia, hypokalamia, twitching, flaccid paralysis of skeletal muscle, respiratory muscle paralysis, and ventricular fibrillation (EHC 107 (1990)). Based on these reports, the substance was classified into Category 1 (gastrointestinal tract, skeletal muscle, and heart). |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Category 2 (central nervous system, lung, heart, testis) |
|
Warning | H373: May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (central nervous system, lung, heart, testis) |
P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. P314: Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Although no test results on this substance are available, it is reported that repeated subcutaneous injections of barium chloride affected the central nervous system in rabbits, and repeated inhalation exposure induced interstitial pneumonitis in guinea pigs, rats, and hamsters (ACGIH (2001)). In addition, chronic exposure to barium compounds in drinking water or via inhalation affected the cardiac muscle and testes at doses that fall under Category 2 guidance values or higher doses (EHC 107 (1990)). Thus, the substance was classified into Category 2 (central nervous system, lung, heart, and testis). |
| 10 | Aspiration hazard | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
