1	Acute toxicity (Oral)	Category 4	Warning	H302	P301+P312 P264 P270 P330 P501	Rat LD50 value: 460mg/kg (RTECS, 2006, SITTIG 4th, 2002, HSDB, 2006) and 770mg/kg (HSDB, 2006). Based on the data above, it was classified to category 4.	FY2006	GHS Classification Manual （10 Feb, 2006）
1	Acute toxicity (Dermal)	Category 4	Warning	H312	P302+P352 P362+P364 P280 P312 P321 P501	It was set as Category 4 based on rabbit LD50 value: 2000mg/kg (RTECS, 2006).	FY2006	GHS Classification Manual （10 Feb, 2006）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases)	Not classified (Not applicable)	- -	-	-	Solid (GHS definition)	FY2006	GHS Classification Manual （10 Feb, 2006）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available	FY2006	GHS Classification Manual （10 Feb, 2006）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	There was the description stating rat LCLo (4 hours) value: 0.012mg/L (RTECS (2006)). But there is no data of LC50 value. Therefore, it cannot be classified since the category cannot be specified.	FY2006	GHS Classification Manual （10 Feb, 2006）
2	Skin corrosion/irritation	Category 3	- Warning	-	-	From description that slight erythema was admitted in the test applied to the skin of the rabbit (the exposure time was unknown) (ACGIH (7th, 2001)), it was judged that there was mild irritation, and it was set to Category 3.	FY2006	GHS Classification Manual （10 Feb, 2006）
3	Serious eye damage/eye irritation	Category 2A	Warning	H319	P305+P351+P338 P337+P313 P264 P280	Based on the description in ACGIH (7th, 2001) that in the study applied to the eye of the rabbits, although the changes in the iris were unknown, the corneal cloudings and conjunctiva stimulativeness were acknowledged. However, there were no descriptions about resilience and we could not categorized it deleberately. Therefore we classified it as Category 2A-2B.	FY2006	GHS Classification Manual （10 Feb, 2006）
4	Respiratory sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data	FY2006	GHS Classification Manual （10 Feb, 2006）

7	Reproductive toxicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Classification not possible due to lack of data	FY2006	GHS Classification Manual （10 Feb, 2006）
8	Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure	Category 2 (nervous system), Category 3 (respiratory tract irritation)	Warning	H371 H335	P308+P311 P260 P264 P270 P405 P501 P304+P340 P403+P233 P261 P271 P312	Because of descriptions in ICSC (J) (1995), HSFS (2005), and SITTIG (4th, 2002) referring to that respiratory tracts were stimulated and nervous systems were affected, it was judged as Category 2 (nervous system) and Category 3 (respiratory tracts stimulativeness).	FY2006	GHS Classification Manual （10 Feb, 2006）
9	Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Although there is description that the clear toxic effect was not observed in two year feeding oral administration tests on rats and dogs (ACGIH (7th, 2001)) It is a test result with a low dose within the guidance value range of Category 1, and there was no test data in high administration dose tested to judge it as out of Category, it cannot be classified.	FY2006	GHS Classification Manual （10 Feb, 2006）

ENVIRONMENTAL 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
11	Hazardous to the aquatic environment Short term (Acute)	Category 2	- -	H401	P273 P501	It was classified in Category 2 from 96-hour LC50 = 3.7 mg/L for crustacea (Gammarus fasciatus) (EPA AQUIRE: 2018, EPA Pesticide Ecotoxicity Database (1992)).	FY2018	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
11	Hazardous to the aquatic environment Long term (Chronic)	Category 2	-	H411	P273 P391 P501	Chronic toxicity data were not obtained. It was classified in Category 2 because it is not rapidly degradable and was classified in Category 2 in acute toxicity.	FY2018	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))
12	Hazardous to the ozone layer	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2018	GHS Classification Guidance for the Japanese Government (FY2013 revised edition (Ver. 1.1))

NOTE:

GHS Classification Result by the Japanese Government is intended to provide a reference for preparing a GHS label or SDS for users. To include the same classification result in a label or SDS for Japan is NOT mandatory.

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. Details are described in the column of “Rationale for the classification”. If no English translation is available for “Rationale for the classification,” please refer to the Japanese version of the results.
