2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Category 3 |
Warning |
- | - | From description with the possibility which indicates skin irritation in humans (DFGOT, vol.15, 2001[as inorganic mercury compounds]; STTIG, 4th, 2002;HSFS, 1993), mild irritation was considered to be a certain thing, and it was set to Category 3. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 2B |
Warning |
H320 | P305+P351+P338 P337+P313 P264 |
Due to the description that it may irritate to the eye (STTIG, 4th, 2002;HSFS, 1993), it was classified into Category 2B. | FY2006 | GHS Classification Manual (10 Feb, 2006) |
