Based on a LC50 value of 500 ppm/4h for rats (RTECS (2008), the original literature: American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal 50, A359-361, 1989), the substance was classified into Category 2. Since the LC50 value was lower than 90% of saturated vapour pressure concentration (25 degC), the classification criteria for gas was adopted. | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |

3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data. As information in a document in List 3, there is a report of "mild" irritating in a Draize test where 500 mg of the substance was applied to the eye of rabbits (RTECS (2008)). | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
