HEALTH HAZARDS
Hazard class Classification Symbol Signal word Hazard statement Precautionary statement Rationale for the classification
1 Acute toxicity (Oral) Not classified - - - - No data were available for this substance. The rat LD50 value of > 2332 mg/kg was documented (SIDS (Access on Jul. 2010)) for C9 rich, C8-10 alkenes (CAS No. 68526-55-6). Thus the substance was classified as "Not classified" in the JIS classification (corresponding to Category 5 in the UN-GHS classification).
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Not classified - - - - No data were available for this substance. The rabbit LD50 value of > 2332 mg/kg was documented (SIDS (Access on Jul. 2010)) for C9 rich, C8-10 alkenes (CAS No. 68526-55-6). Thus the substance was classified as "Not classified" in the JIS classification (corresponding to Category 5 in the UN-GHS classification).
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable - - - - Liquid (GHS definition)
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) Classification not possible - - - - No data were available for this substance. The rat LC50 (4 hour) value of >13.6 mg/L (2633 ppm) was documented (SIDS (Access on Jul. 2010)) for C9 rich, C8-10 alkenes (CAS No. 68526-55-6), this information did not provide a basis for classification. The test concentration, 2633 ppm, was less than the 90 % of the saturated vapor pressure concentration (7105 ppm), the criterion values for gas were adopted for the classification.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Not classified - - - - No data were available of the substance. But as for alkenes (CAS No. 68526-55-6, C8 - 10, C9 Rich), mild irritation which was characterized by slight erythema was reported in 24-hour skin application test in rabbits at 73.8 - 2332 mg/kg of undiluted substance (SIDS (Access on Jul. 2010)). Based on the document, the substance was classified as "Not classified" in the JIS classification (corresponding to Category 3 in the UN-GHS classification).
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Not classified - - - - No data were available of the substance. But as for alkenes (CAS No. 68526-55-6, C8 - 10, C9 Rich), mild conjunctival irritation was reported in rabbit test by instillation of 0.1 ml of undiluted substance, but symptoms disappeared within 24 hours and maximum total score of Draize was 6 (SIDS (Access on Jul. 2010)). Based on the document, the substance was classified as "Not classified".
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Not classified - - - - There are no data for this substance. As for alkenes (CAS No. 68526-55-6), C9 rich mixture with C8 - C10, negative results in the micronucleus test using bone marrow after oral administration to mice (in vivo mutagenicity test in somatic cells) were reported (SIDS (Access on Jul. 2010)). Therefore, the classification was concluded as "Not classified". As relevant information, as for in vitro study, negative results in the Ames test were reported (SIDS (Access on Jul. 2010)).
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Category 3 (Narcotic effects) Warning H336: May cause drowsiness or dizziness (narcotic effects) P304+P340: IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing.
P403+P233: Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly closed.
P261: Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray.
P271: Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area.
P312: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
No data on this substance was available. In the acute inhalation toxicity studies of the C9 rich mixture with C8 - C10 alkenes (CAS No. 68526-55-6) in mice, rats or guinea pigs, no deaths occurred in any species at a vapor concentration of 11.1 mg/L/6hrs (converted value as that of 4-hour exposure: 13.6 mg/L), and the treatment-related clinical signs observed were as follows: labored respiration in mice, ataxia and lethargy in rats, and slight tremors in guinea pigs. No other remarkable changes were observed at necropsy (SIDS (Access on Jul. 2010)). Moreover, the rats administered orally at high dose (2332 mg/kg) showed a mild depression, while anesthetic effects were reported when exposed to this substance at high concentrations (PATTY, 5th, (2001)). As mentioned above, the substance was classified as Category 3 (narcotic effects).
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible - - - - No data available.
10 Aspiration hazard Category 1 Danger H304: May be fatal if swallowed and enters airways P301+P310: IF SWALLOWED: Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician.
P331: Do NOT induce vomiting.
P405: Store locked up.
P501: Dispose of contents/container to ...
This substance was classified as Category 1 from the fact that it is a hydrocarbon liquid and coefficient of kinematic viscosity is 1.17 mm2/s (HSDB (2002)).
