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)	Not classified	- -	-	-	Since its rat LD50 is > 5000 mg/kg bw (OECD TG 401 GLP) (IUCLID (2000)), the substance was classified into "Not classified".	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
1	Acute toxicity (Dermal)	Not classified	- -	-	-	Since its rabbit LD50 is > 5000 mg/kg bw (OECD TG 402 GLP) (IUCLID (2000)), the substance was classified into "Not classified".	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases)	Not classified (Not applicable)	- -	-	-	Liquid (GHS definition)	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
1	Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists)	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available. As relevant information, the rat LC50 of similar products (solvent-dewaxed light paraffinic distillates (CAS No. 64742-56-9)) is > 4 mg/L (IUCLID (2000)), which falls under Category 4.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
2	Skin corrosion/irritation	Not classified	- -	-	-	In Draize tests using rabbits (OECD TG 404 GLP), the Primary Dermal Irritation Index was 0.27 to 0.38 (IUCLID (2000)), which represents "Not classified" category.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
3	Serious eye damage/eye irritation	Not classified	- -	-	-	In Draize tests using rabbits (OECD TG 405 GLP), the Primary Dermal Irritation Index was 0 (IUCLID (2000)), which represents "Not classified" category.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
4	Respiratory sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
4	Skin sensitization	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Maximization tests using guinea pigs (OECD TG 406 GLP) found that the substance is not skin sensitizing (IUCLID (2000)), indicating that it is to be categorized into "Not classified". However, since these results were obtained using a List 2 dataset, it was classified into "Classification not possible".	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
5	Germ cell mutagenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	In chromosomal aberration tests using bone marrow cells of rats that underwent oral or intraperitoneal administration (OECD TG 475 GLP) (in vivo mutagenicity tests using somatic cells), a statistically significant increase in chromosomal aberrations was reported; however, the increase was detected in comparison with the limited historical control data (IUCLID (2000)). Other than this report, there are no test results available from either in vivo tests or in vitro tests using multiple indices. As such, the substance was classified into "Classification not possible". Also, mouse lymphoma assays yielded negative results (IUCLID (2000)).	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
6	Carcinogenicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	As the IARC classified highly refined mineral oils into Group 3, and untreated and mildly treated mineral oils into Group 1 (IARC 33 (1987)), classification is differentiated by the degree of refinement. Because the degree of refinement associated with this substance is unknown, it is classified into "Classification not possible".	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
7	Reproductive toxicity	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
8	Specific target organ toxicity - Single exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	No data available.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
9	Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	In 21-day dermal toxicity tests using rabbits (6 hours /day and 3 days/week), no signs of toxicity were reported at the dose of 5000 mg/kg (IUCLID (2000)). With only this test result obtainable, the substance was classified into "Classification not possible" due to insufficient data available.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）
10	Aspiration hazard	Classification not possible	- -	-	-	Since it is a hydrocarbon and its kinematic viscosity is 25.1 mm2/s at 40degC (CONCAWE (1997)), the substance is considered to be categorized into "Not classified". However, classification is not possible due to insufficient data available.	FY2008	GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government （Sep, 2008）

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”.
