1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Not classified |
- |
- | - | Based on a LD50 value of >2000 mg/kg for rats (PATTY (5th, 2001), the substance was classified into "Not classified" in JIS Classification (correspond to Category 5 in GHS classification). | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Not classified |
- |
- | - | Based on a LD50 value of >5 g/kg for rabbits (HSDB (2002)), the substance was classified as "Not classified". | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) | Not classified (Not applicable) |
- |
- | - | Liquid (GHS definition) | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Although a LC50 value of >5.4 mg/L (1,117,648 ppmV) for rats (PATTY (5th, 2001)), classification was not possible since determination of category was impossible. Since the test concentration (5.4 mg/L) was lower than 90% of saturated vapour pressure concentration (23.8537 mg/L), the classification criteria for gas was adopted. | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Dusts and mists) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available. | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
2 | Skin corrosion/irritation | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Classification not possible due to lack of data. Although there is a result of "not irritation after a 48-hour closed-patch application at 8% in petrolatum to human subjects (HSDB (2002)), suitability of the dose selection and the details are not clear. | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
3 | Serious eye damage/eye irritation | Category 2 |
Warning |
H319 | P305+P351+P338 P337+P313 P264 P280 |

- | - | No data available. | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
4 | Skin sensitization | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Although there is a result of "produced no sensitization reactions" in a maximization test on 25 volunteers (HSDB (2002)), classification was not possible due to the information in a document in List 2. | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |

Warning |
H335 | P304+P340 P403+P233 P261 P271 P312 P405 P501 |
Based on a report that humans find concentrations greater than 200 ppm objectionable because of the strong odor and 400 ppm caused nose and throat irritation (HSDB (2002)) and classification into Xi; R37 in EU classification, the substance was classified into Category 3 (respiratory tract irritation). | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | There is a report that degenerative and regenerative changes in the nasal cavity were noted in animal tests (HSDB (2002)). There is a report that no adverse symptoms were noted in workers exposed to 375 to 1500 ppm for several months (HSDB (2002)). Classification was not possible due to unclear details and lack of other data. | FY2009 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (March, 2009) |
