PHYSICAL HAZARDS

Hazard class		Classification	Symbol	Signal word	Hazard statement	Precautionary statement	Rationale for the classification
1	Explosives	Not applicable	-	-	-	-	There are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecules.
2	Flammable gases （including chemically unstable gases）	Not applicable	-	-	-	-	Solid
3	Aerosols	Not applicable	-	-	-	-	Not aerosol products.
4	Oxidizing gases	Not applicable	-	-	-	-	Solid
5	Gases under pressure	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	-	-	-	-	There are no chemical groups present in the molecule associated with explosive or self-reactive properties.
9	Pyrophoric liquids	Not applicable	-	-	-	-	Solid
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	-	-	-	-	It is generally available as a product which is dispersed in water.
13	Oxidizing liquids	Not applicable	-	-	-	-	Solid
14	Oxidizing solids	Classification not possible	-	-	-	-	Organic compounds containing oxygen (but not fluorine or chlorine). Since the form of the bond involving this oxygen is unknown and due to lack of test data using standardized test methods, classification is not possible.
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

Hazard class		Classification	Symbol	Signal word	Hazard statement	Precautionary statement	Rationale for the classification
1	Acute toxicity （Oral）	Category 4		Warning	H302: Harmful if swallowed	P301+P312: IF SWALLOWED: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell. P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling. P270: Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. P330: Rinse mouth. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...	Since its mouse LD50 = 1 g/kg (HSDB, 2005), the substance was classified into Category 4.
1	Acute toxicity （Dermal）	Classification not possible	-	-	-	-	No data available.
1	Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases）	Not applicable	-	-	-	-	Since the substance is a solid (GHS definition), it was classified into the "Not applicable" category.
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	-	-	-	-	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	Category 1B		Danger	H340: May cause genetic defects	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 ...	Based on the report that a dominant lethal test with mice gave positive results (RTECS accessed in October 2007), the substance was classified into Category 1B.
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 Suppl. 7 (1987)) and "R" by the NTP (NTP (2005)). Based on these ratings, the substance was classified into Category 2.
7	Reproductive toxicity	Classification not possible	-	-	-	-	In a test in which rabbits received intravenous injections, the effect of the substance was noted in the offspring. However, because an unconventional administration route was used, this test cannot be considered for classification (HSDB (2007)). Since no other test results are available, classification is not possible.
8	Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure	Classification not possible	-	-	-	-	No data available.
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.
