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 (GHS definition) |
| 3 | Aerosols | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Not aerosol products. |
| 4 | Oxidizing gases | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid (GHS definition) |
| 5 | Gases under pressure | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid (GHS definition) |
| 6 | Flammable liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid (GHS definition) |
| 7 | Flammable solids | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. Information is available that the substance is "Not combustible" (ICSC (2004)). |
| 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 (GHS definition) |
| 10 | Pyrophoric solids | Category 1 |

Danger | H250: Catches fire spontaneously if exposed to air |
P335+P334: Brush off loose particles from skin. Immerse in cool water/wrap in wet bandages. P370+P378: In case of fire: Use ... for extinction. P210: Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking. P222: Do not allow contact with air. P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. P422: Store contents under ... |
Fine-powdery strontium is classified into Category 1since it spontaneously ignites in the air (HSDB (2006)) and strontium powder is classified into Division 4.2 (Substances liable to spontaneous combustion), PG I in UNRTDG (UN1383). However, the ingot is estimated to be classified into Not classified. |
| 11 | Self-heating substances and mixtures | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 12 | Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Classification is not possible due to insufficient data though the substance contains metals (Sr). Information is available that it forms explosive gas mixture containing hydrogen gas on contact with water (Ullmanns (E) (2003), and hydrogen gas generation speed varies with particle sizes. Therefore, products should be classified by conducting the designated tests. |
| 13 | Oxidizing liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid (GHS definition) |
| 14 | Oxidizing solids | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Inorganic compounds containing no oxygen and halogen atoms |
| 15 | Organic peroxides | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Inorganic compound |
| 16 | Corrosive to metals | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | Test methods applicable to solid substances are not 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. For health hazards, refer also to strontium nitrate (CAS: 10042-76-9). |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Dermal） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） | Not applicable | - | - | - | - | Solid (GHS definition) |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |

| 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 | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Acute） | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | No data available. |
