1 | Explosives | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | The pure form of this substance is known to explode very violently (Bretherick). The substance prepared as synthetic raw materials or analytical reagents have apparently not been evaluated for its explosive properties, and thus, it was classified into the "Classification not possible" category. (The substance wetted with 20% water by mass is defined as Division 4.1, packing group I (UN 3376) by the UNRTDG and categorized into desensitized explosives.) |

1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available. Notes: According to GHS classification of dinitrophenol by the Japanese Government, oral doses of 3 to 46 mg/kg (ATSDR, 1995) or 1 to 3 g (which are equivalent to 17 to 50 mg/kg assuming the body weight of 60 kg) are considered to be lethal in humans (HSDB, 2003). Based on these reports, the substance was classified into Category 2. |
