- |
- | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data. |
2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data. Besides, it is reported that the pH of this substance is 2.2 (25 deg C, 10 g/L) (GESTIS Access on September 2013), and it is described that it is a relatively strong acid that can damage the skin and mucous membranes (PATTY (6th, 2012)). |

Rationale for the classification | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Acute) | Not classified |
- |
- | - | From 48-hour EC50 = 275 mg/L for crustacea (Daphnia magna) (AQUIRE, 2013), it was classified as "Not classified." |
11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) | Not classified |
- |
- | - | Reliable chronic toxicity data were not obtained. Because it is not water-insoluble (water solubility = 7.3 g/100 mL (ICSC, 2002)), and it was classified as "Not classified" in acute toxicity, it was classified as "Not classified". |
12 | Hazardous to the ozone layer | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | This substance is not listed in the Annexes to the Montreal Protocol. |
