PHYSICAL HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Explosives Classification not possible - - - - It contains chemical groups (N-nitroso group) associated with explosive properties. Since no test results are available, classification is not possible.
2 Flammable gases (including chemically unstable gases) Not applicable - - - - Liquid (Light Yellow Oil (Chemfinder))
3 Aerosols Not applicable - - - - Not aerosol products.
4 Oxidizing gases Not applicable - - - - Liquid (Light Yellow Oil (Chemfinder))
5 Gases under pressure Not applicable - - - - Liquid (Light Yellow Oil (Chemfinder))
6 Flammable liquids Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
7 Flammable solids Not applicable - - - - Liquid (Light Yellow Oil (Chemfinder))
8 Self-reactive substances and mixtures Classification not possible - - - - It contains chemical groups associated with explosive properties. Since no further information is available, classification is not possible.
9 Pyrophoric liquids Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
10 Pyrophoric solids Not applicable - - - - Liquid (Light Yellow Oil (Chemfinder))
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 applicable - - - - The chemical structure of the substance does not contain metals or metalloids (B, Si, P, Ge, As, Se, Sn, Sb, Te, Bi, Po, At).
13 Oxidizing liquids Classification not possible - - - - It is an organic compound containing oxygen (but not fluorine or chlorine), which is chemically bonded to nitrogen. Since no test results based on standardized testing methods are available, classification is not possible.
14 Oxidizing solids Not applicable - - - - Liquid (Light Yellow Oil (Chemfinder))
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable - - - - Organic compounds containing no bivalent -O-O- structure
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible - - - - No data available.

HEALTH HAZARDS

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 ...
Since its rat LD50 is 200 mg/kg bw according to IARC 17 (1978), the substance was classified into Category 3.
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable - - - - Liquid (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 Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Classification not possible - - - - It can irritate the eyes and may damage the cornea according to HSFS (2006). However, since there is no clear evidence that supports this conclusion, the substance was classified into the "Classification not possible" category.
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 no test results in germ cell mutagenicity studies are available, and an in vivo micronucleus test using rat peripheral blood gave negative results (Mutat Res., 389, 1-122 (1997)), the substance was classified into the "Not classified" category.
6 Carcinogenicity Category 2 Warning H351: Suspected of causing 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 ...
It is rated as "Group 2B" by the IARC (IARC S7 (1987)) and "R" by the NTP (U.S. NTP, 2005), the substance was classified into Category 2.
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
