HEALTH HAZARDS

Hazard class		Classification	Pictogram Signal word	Hazard statement (code)	Precautionary statement (code)	Rationale for the classification	Classification year (FY)	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government
1	Acute toxicity (Oral)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data.	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))

1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data. Besides, it is reported that there were no dead animals after an 8-hour application of saturated vapour to rats (converted 4-hour equivalent value: 5.64*10-5 ppm) (DFGOT vol. 16 (2001)).	FY2013	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0))
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists)	Category 4	Warning	H332	P304+P340 P261 P271 P312	It was classified in Category 4 based on a report on an LC50 value of 1.37 mg/L in a 4-hour nose and head inhalation test with rats (DFGOT vol. 16 (2001)).

This GHS classification was conducted based on the information sources and the guidance for classification and judgement which are described in the GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government etc. Using other literature, test results etc. as evidence and including different content from this classification result in a label or SDS are allowed.
Hazard statement and precautionary statement will show by hovering the mouse cursor over a code in the column of "Hazard statement" and "Precautionary statement," respectively. In the excel file, both the codes and statements are provided.
A blank or "-" in the column of "Classification" denotes that a classification for the hazard class was not conducted in the year.
An asterisk “*” in the column of “Classification” denotes that “Not classified (or No applicable)” and/or “Classification not possible” is applicable.
