Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Its LD50 = 2050 mg/kg for mice, and its LDLo = 3 g/kg for rats (RTECS (2006)) are documented. However, since these are List 3 data, classification is not possible. |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Its LDLo = 3 g/kg in rabbits (RTECS (2006)) is documented. However, since this is List 3 datum, classification is not possible. |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Liquid (GHS definition) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Its LCLo = 2280 ppm/15h (four-hour conversion, 4415 ppm) (RTECS (2006)) for mice fits in Category 4. However, since the datum is included in List 3 and no other data are available, the substance was classified into "Classification not possible". As relevant information, since its saturated vapour pressure concentration is 4156 ppm and the test was considered to be performed in vapour with almost no included mists classification was performed with its gas cut-off value. |
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 | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Since no in vivo data are available, classification is not possible. As relevant information, in vitro mutagenicity tests (Ames tests) yielded negative results. |
6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
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 | - | - | - | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data. As relevant information, information that the substance may cause chemical pneumonia is documented (ICSC (J) (2004)). |
Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
