H250 | P302+P335+P334 P231+P232 P370+P378 P210 P222 P233 P280 |
It was classified in Category 1 because the dry powder is pyrophoric in the air (Merck (14th, 2006)), and it is classified in Division 4.2, PG I in UNRTDG (UN2441). | FY2011 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
11 | Self-heating substances and mixtures | Not classified (Not applicable) |

- | - | It was classified as a pyrophoric solid. | FY2011 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
12 | Substances and mixtures which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases | Classification not possible | - |
- | - | Although it contains a metal (Ti), classification is not possible due to lack of data. Besides, there is information that it decomposes with the release of very much heat on contact with humidity or water. The heat causes spontaneous ignition. At that time, hydrogen chloride gas and its aqueous solution (hydrochloric acid), as well as titanium peroxide vapor and titanium dioxide are produced (Hommel (1996)). | FY2011 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |

14 | Oxidizing solids | Not classified |
- |
- | - | The substance contains halogen (Cl), which is chemically bonded to an element other than carbon or hydrogen. However, due to the description of a powerful reducing agent (Merck (14th, 2006)), it was classified as "Not classified." | FY2011 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |

16 | Corrosive to metals | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Test methods applicable to solid substances are not available. Besides, there is information that under the presence of humidity, it is corrosive to most metals, and such attacked ones are unsuitable as a container (Hommel (1996)). | FY2011 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |

1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | There is an LD50 value for rats of 4,300 mg/kg (Environmental Risk Assessment for Chemical Substances vol. 8 (Ministry of the Environment, 2010)), but because details such as test methods are unknown, the classification is not possible. Besides, there is a report on 130 mg/kg (20% formulation (20% titanium trichloride solution in hydrochloric acid)), > 300 mg/kg (both, Evaluation of effect for the food safety (Food Safety Commission, 2003), Document for the Committee on Poisonous and Deleterious Substances, the Pharmaceutical Affairs and Food Sanitation Council, Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare). Besides, this substance reacts with air and water to form corrosive hydrogen chloride (gas), titanium peroxide (vapour), and titanium dioxide (residue). Therefore, please also refer to health hazards for hydrogen chloride (CAS RN 7647-01-0) and titanium compounds (titanium dioxide (IV) (CAS RN 13463-67-7), etc.). | FY2011 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Data are lacking. Besides, by using a 20% solution of this substance in hydrochloric acid (concentration of hydrochloric acid: 2-3%), an LD50 value for rats was reported to be > 2,000 mg/kg (a converted value equivalent to this substance: > 400 mg/kg) (Evaluation of effect for the food safety (Food Safety Commission, 2003), Document for the Committee on Poisonous and Deleterious Substances, the Pharmaceutical Affairs and Food Sanitation Council, Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare). | FY2011 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
