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
-
-
- - 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 Not classified
-
-
- - It is not combustible (GESTIS (Accessed Aug. 2018)).
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 Not classified
-
-
- - It is not combustible (GESTIS (Accessed Aug. 2018)).
11 Self-heating substances and mixtures Not classified
-
-
- - It is not combustible (GESTIS (Accessed Aug. 2018)).
12 Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases Not classified
-
-
- - It contains metals (Ba, Ti). However, because there is an observation result that it is insoluble in water (GESTIS (Accessed Aug. 2018)), it is estimated that it does not react vigorously with water.
13 Oxidizing liquids Not applicable
-
-
- - Solid (GHS definition)
14 Oxidizing solids Classification not possible
-
-
- - It is an inorganic compound containing oxygen, but the classification is not possible due to no data.
15 Organic peroxides Not applicable
-
-
- - It is an inorganic compound.
16 Corrosive to metals Classification not possible
-
-
- - Test methods applicable to solid substances are not available.

Rationale for the classification
1 Acute toxicity (Oral) Not classified
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Based on (1), it was classified as "Not classified."

[Evidence Data]
(1) LD50 for rats: > 12,000 mg/kg (REACH registration dossier (Accessed Aug. 2018))
1 Acute toxicity (Dermal) Not classified
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Based on (1), it was classified as "Not classified." Besides, the category was changed by adopting the REACH registration dossier.

[Evidence Data]
(1) LD50 for rats: > 2,000 mg/kg (REACH registration dossier (Accessed Aug. 2018))
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) Not applicable
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Solid (GHS definition)
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) Classification not possible
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Classification not possible due to lack of data.
1 Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) Not classified
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Based on (1), since there were no deaths at 4.89 mg/L, the highest concentration, it was considered that no deaths were within or lower than the range of Category 4, and it was not applicable to Category 5 in UN GHS classification. Therefore, it was classified as "Not classified." Besides, the category was changed by adopting the REACH registration dossier.

[Evidence Data]
(1) LC50 (4 hours) for rats: > 4.89 mg/L (REACH registration dossier (Accessed Aug. 2018))
2 Skin corrosion/irritation Classification not possible
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Classification not possible due to lack of data.

[Reference Data, etc.]
(1) There is a report that skin irritation was negative in an in vitro test using barium chloride dihydrate (REACH registration dossier (Accessed Aug. 2018)).
3 Serious eye damage/eye irritation Not classified
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Based on (1), it was classified as "Not classified." Besides, the category was changed from the previous classification by using new information.

[Evidence Data]
(1) There is a report that in an eye irritation test (OECD TG 405, GLP-compliant) with rabbits, in which this substance was applied, no eye irritation was observed (REACH registration dossier (Accessed Aug. 2018))
4 Respiratory sensitization Classification not possible
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Classification not possible due to lack of data.
4 Skin sensitization Classification not possible
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Classification not possible due to lack of data.
5 Germ cell mutagenicity Classification not possible
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Classification not possible due to lack of data.

[Reference Data, etc.]
(1) Barium chloride dihydrate is reported to be negative in an in vitro bacterial reverse mutation test and a mouse lymphoma test (REACH registration dossier (Accessed Aug. 2018)).
6 Carcinogenicity Classification not possible
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Classification not possible due to lack of data.
7 Reproductive toxicity Classification not possible
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Classification not possible due to lack of data.

[Reference Data, etc.]
(1) In a one-generation test in which barium chloride dihydrate was administered by drinking water to rats, no reproductive or developmental effects were observed at up to 4,000 ppm, the highest dose (REACH registration dossier (Accessed Aug. 2018)).
8 Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure Not classified
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Based on (1), it was classified as "Not classified."

[Evidence Data]
(1) There are reports that in single exposure tests with rats by the oral, dermal, and inhalation routes, neither abnormal symptoms manifested nor abnormal findings by necropsy were observed within or lower than the dose range of Category 2 (REACH registration dossier (Accessed Aug. 2018)).
9 Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure Classification not possible
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Classification not possible due to lack of data.
10 Aspiration hazard Classification not possible
-
-
- - [Rationale for the Classification]
Classification not possible due to lack of data.
