1 | Acute toxicity (Oral) | Category 4 |
Warning |
H302 | P301+P312 P264 P270 P330 P501 |
It was classified in Category 4 based on an LD50 value of 1,100 mg/kg for rats (USEPA/HPV (2007), corresponding to List 1). | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Dermal) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | No data available. | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Gases) | Not classified (Not applicable) |
- |
- | - | Solid (GHS definition) | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
1 | Acute toxicity (Inhalation: Vapours) | Classification not possible |
- |
- | - | Data are lacking. Besides, it is described that 8-hour exposure to the concentrated vapour of this substance killed half the number of rats within a 14-day observation period (USEPA/HPV (2007)), but the details such as an exposure concentration are unknown. Therefore, the classification is not possible. | FY2012 | GHS Classification Guidance by the Japanese Government (July, 2010) |
