Although there are no concrete test reports, etc., there are many reports describing that hexavalent chromium compounds were corrosive (EU-RAR (2005), DFGOT vol.3 (1992), OEL Documentations (Japan Society For Occupational Health (JSOH), 1989)). Since this substance is water-soluble Cr (VI) and was considered to cause irritation equivalent to hexavalent chromium compounds, it was classified in Category 1. | FY2014 | GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0)) |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 1 |
Danger |
H318 | P305+P351+P338 P280 P310 |
Although there are no concrete test reports, etc., there are many reports describing that hexavalent chromium compounds were corrosive (EU-RAR (2005), DFGOT vol.3 (1992), OEL Documentations (Japan Society For Occupational Health (JSOH), 1989)). Since this substance is water-soluble Cr (VI) and was considered to cause irritation equivalent to hexavalent chromium compounds, it was classified in Category 1. | FY2014 | GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0)) |
4 | Respiratory sensitization | Category 1 |
Danger |
H334 | P304+P340 P342+P311 P261 P284 P501 |
The Japan Society for Occupational Health (JSOH) classified chromium compounds in occupational sensitizers to the airway Group 2. Although this substance is not specified in this classification, there is a description in OEL Documentations (Japan Society For Occupational Health (JSOH), 1989) that hexavalent chromium compounds are more toxic than divalent and trivalent compounds. In addition, there is a description that chromium compounds caused asthma (ATSDR (2012), EU-RAR (2005)). From the above, it was classified in Category 1. | FY2014 | GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0)) |

Warning |
H317 | P302+P352 P333+P313 P362+P364 P261 P272 P280 P321 P501 |
Chromium compounds including this substance were classified in occupational skin sensitizers Group 1 by Japan Society For Occupational Health (JSOH) (Recommendation of Occupational Exposure Limits (Japan Society For Occupational Health (JSOH), 2014)). Although this substance is not specified in this classification, there is a description that hexavalent chromium compounds are more toxic than divalent or trivalent compounds in the OEL Documentations (Japan Society For Occupational Health (JSOH), 1989). In addition, although it is not information limited to this substance, there is a description that hexavalent chromium compounds were sensitizing to the skin (EU-RAR (2005), ATSDR (2012), PATTY (6th, 2012)). Moreover, there is a report that sensitization was observed in a human patch test with hexavalent chromium compounds (ATSDR (2012)). From the above, it was classified in Category 1. | FY2014 | GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0)) |
5 | Germ cell mutagenicity | Category 1B |
Danger |
H340 | P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501 |
As for in vivo, although it was negative in micronucleus tests with mice and hamsters, it was positive in a sister chromatid exchange test (animal species unknown) (IARC 49 (1990)). As for in vitro, it was positive in all of bacterial reverse mutation tests, mouse lymphoma tests, a chromosomal aberration test and a sister chromatid exchange test with cultured mammalian cells (ACGIH (7th, 2001), ATSDR (2012), IARC 49 (1990), NTP DB (Access on Dec 2014)). Although there are no data of either in vivo germ cell mutagenicity or in vivo genotoxicity relating to this substance, since this substance is water-soluble Cr (VI), it was classified in Category 1B. | FY2014 | GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0)) |
6 | Carcinogenicity | Category 1A |
Danger |
H350 | P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501 |
Since it was classified in Group 1 (as chromium (VI)) by IARC (IARC (1990)), in A2 by ACGIH (ACGIH (7th, 2001)), as K (as hexavalent chromium compound) by NTP (NTP RoC (2014)) and in Group 1 by Japan Society for Occupational Health (JSOH) (OEL Documentations (1989)), it was classified in Category 1A, giving priority to IARC classification. Besides, it was classified in 2 by the EU (EU (Access on Dec. 2014)). | FY2014 | GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0)) |
7 | Reproductive toxicity | Category 1B |
Danger |
H360 | P308+P313 P201 P202 P280 P405 P501 |
There are no data on this substance. However, as for reproductive toxicity of chromium (VI), potassium dichromate (CAS: 7778-50-9) and potassium chromate (CAS: 7789-00-6), water-soluble substances just like this substance, were classified in Category 1B. Therefore, this substance was also classified in Category 1B. Besides, chromium and its compounds were classified in reproductive toxicants Group 3 (provisional) (correspond to Category 2) in Recommendation of Occupational Exposure Limits (2014) by Japan Society For Occupational Health (JSOH). However, because the classification of Recommendation of Occupational Exposure Limits was in a provisional period, it was not adopted. |

8 | Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure | Category 1 (central nervous system, respiratory organs, cardiovascular system, blood system, liver, kidney) |
Danger |
H370 | P308+P311 P260 P264 P270 P321 P405 P501 |
There are no data on this substance. There are reports that respiratory tract irritation, respiratory tract inflammation, nose and chest pain, cough, dyspnea, cyanosis and kidney damage were observed by human inhalation exposure to hexavalent chromium compounds, that vomiting, diarrhea, gastrointestinal tract bleeding, liver necrosis, and renal tubular necrosis in the kidney were observed by human oral exposure, and that severe respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, hematological, hepatic, renal, and neurological effects were reported by accidental or intentional human ingestion at high-doses (ACGIH (7th, 2001), CICAD 78 (2013), EHC 61 (1988), EU-RAR (2005), ATSDR (2012)). This substance is a hexavalent chromium compound, and it was considered possible to use the toxicity findings on hexavalent chromium compounds for classification of this substance. The findings of the gastrointestinal tract were not adopted because of local irritation. From the above, it was classified in Category 1 (central nervous system, respiratory organs, cardiovascular system, hemal system, liver, kidney). The previous classification was changed. |

Danger |
H372 | P260 P264 P270 P314 P501 |
There are no reports of clear effects by repeated exposure to this substance in either humans or experimental animals. However, in the Hazard Assessment Report of a series of hexavalent chromium compounds including this substance, there is a description that in humans who were exposed occupationally to hexavalent chromium compounds, irritation of the respiratory tract and eyes were observed, which may cause ulcer/perforations in the nasal septum (CICAD 78 (2013)). Therefore, this substance was also classified in Category 1 (respiratory organs) like other hexavalent chromium compounds. | FY2014 | GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.0)) |
