Warning | H319: Causes serious eye irritation |
P305+P351+P338: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. P337+P313: If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention. P264: Wash ... thoroughly after handling. P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. |
Based on a result of "severe effect" in PATTY and an EU classification in List 2, the substance was classified into Category 2A. In a rabbit test (OECD TG405), effects were observed in the cornea, iris and conjunctiva (erythema and edema), and the irritation index was 42.8/110 (IUCLID (2000)). This data also corresponds to Category 2A. |

| 7 | Reproductive toxicity | - | - | - | - | - | − |
| 8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | - | - | - | - | - | − |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | - | - | - | - | - | − |
| 10 | Aspiration hazard | - | - | - | - | - | − |
| Hazard class | Classification | Symbol | Signal word | Hazard statement | Precautionary statement | Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Acute） | - | - | - | - | - | − |
| 11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment （Long-term） | - | - | - | - | - | − |
