Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Explosives | Not applicable | - | - | - |
There are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule. |
| 2 | Flammable gases （including chemically unstable gases） | Not applicable | - | - | - |
"Solids" according to GHS definition. |
| 3 | Aerosols | Not applicable | - | - | - |
Not an aerosol product. |
| 4 | Oxidizing gases | Not applicable | - | - | - |
"Solids" according to GHS definition. |
| 5 | Gases under pressure | Not applicable | - | - | - |
"Solids" according to GHS definition. |
| 6 | Flammable liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - |
"Solids" according to GHS definition. |
| 7 | Flammable solids | Not classified | - | - | - |
It was classified as "Not classified" from the information that it is a non-combustible solid (GESTIS (Access on June. 2011)). |
| 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 | - | - | - |
"Solids" according to GHS definition. |
| 10 | Pyrophoric solids | Not classified | - | - | - |
It was classified as "Not classified" from the information that it is a non-combustible solid (GESTIS (Access on June. 2011)). |
| 11 | Self-heating substances and mixtures | Not classified | - | - | - |
It was classified as "Not classified" from the information that it is a non-combustible solid (GESTIS (Access on June. 2011)). |
| 12 | Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases | Not classified | - | - | - |
It contains a metal (Pt), but it is conceivable that it is stable in the water from water solubility data at normal temperature (0.5 g/100 g (20 degrees C) (CRC (91st, 2010)). Therefore, it was classified as "Not classified." |
| 13 | Oxidizing liquids | Not applicable | - | - | - |
"Solids" according to GHS definition. |
| 14 | Oxidizing solids | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
A solid that contains chlorine has no data. |
| 15 | Organic peroxides | Not applicable | - | - | - |
It is an inorganic compound. |
| 16 | Corrosive to metals | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
No established test method suitable for solid substances. |

Rationale for the classification | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Oral） | Category 3 |
 |
H301 |
P301+P310 P264 P270 P321 P330 P405 P501 |
Both of 2 LD50 values for rats (195 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg) (EHC 211 (1999)) correspond to Category 3. Besides, it is classified in T; R25 in EU classification (EC-JRC (ESIS) (Access on July. 2011)). |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Dermal） | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
No data. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases） | Not applicable | - | - | - |
It is a solid at normal temperatures. (Merck (14th, 2006)) |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Vapours） | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
No data. |
| 1 | Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Dusts and mists） | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
No data. |
| 2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Not classified | - | - | - |
Because a skin irritation test using rabbits (US Federal Register 1973 Skin Test) resulted in "mild irritant" from a primary irritation index of 1.3 (EHC 211 (1999)), it was classified as "Not classified" in JIS classification (Category 3 in UN GHS classification). |
| 3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 2 |
 |
H319 |
P305+P351+P338 P337+P313 P264 P280 |
There are no data on this substance. But there is the information that a soluble platinum compound is corrosive to eyes (Netherlands evaluation document (2008), corresponding to List 2). Confirmation of corrosive for "Trans-[PtCl2(NH3)2]" and "(NH4)2[PtCl4]" was described. (EHC 211 (1999)). It is classified in Category 2 from Xi; R41 in EU classification. |
| 4 | Respiratory sensitization | Category 1A |
 |
H334 |
P304+P341 P342+P311 P261 P285 P501 |
Platinum itself or its compound is designated as a sensitizing substance (respiratory tract; Group 1) by Japan Society for Occupational Health (Journal of Occupational Health, Vol.52 (2010)). Three out of 6 refinery workers sensitized to this substance elicited positive prick test reactions. (ECETOC TR77 (1999)) Fifteen out of 107 workers with a history of platinum-related health problems exhibited positive prick tests to this substance. (ECETOC TR77 (1999)) In addition, it was concluded that high frequent reports indicating respiratory hypersensitivity in humans such as asthma reactions to sensitized humans in an inhalation test to a mixture containing this substance (EHC 211 (1999)) are evidence that this substance is a respiratory sensitizer (ECETOC TR77 (1999)), therefore, it was classified in Category 1A. Besides, it is classified in R42/43 in EU classification (EC-JRC (ESIS) (Access on July 2011)). |
| 4 | Skin sensitization | Category 1A |
|
H317 |
P302+P352 P333+P313 P261 P272 P280 P321 P363 P501 |
Platinum itself or its compound is designated as a sensitizing substance (skin; Group 1) by Japan Society for Occupational Health (Journal of Occupational Health, Vol.52 (2010)). Because it was concluded that it is a sensitizer from the limited data in animals in which popliteal lymph node test in mice using this substance showed enhanced activity by a challenge and resulted in a weak positive (ECETOC TR77 (1999)). it was classified in Category 1A. Besides, this substance is classified in R42/43 in EU classification (EC-JRC (ESIS) (Access on July 2011)). |
| 5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
The classification is not possible due to no in vivo test data. Besides, a positive in an Ames test was reported as an in vitro test. (Netherlands evaluation document (2008), KemI-Riskline (1997), corresponding to List 2) |
| 6 | Carcinogenicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
No data. |
| 7 | Reproductive toxicity | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
No data. |
| 8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
Lack of data. Besides, irritation to eyes and respiratory tract during exposure to this substance was reported in a Russian literature without details on exposure duration, animal species, or test methods. (KemI-Riskline (1997)) |
| 9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
No data. |
| 10 | Aspiration hazard | Classification not possible | - | - | - |
No data. |
