  • 1. GHS Classification
    • Acute Toxicity, Oral (Category 3)
    • Acute Toxicity, Dermal (Category 3)
    • Acute Toxicity, Inhalation (Category 3)
    • Specific Target Organ Toxicity — Repeated Exposure (Category 2) (Affects blood)
    • Hazardous to the Aquatic Environment, Chronic Hazard (Category 2)
  • 2. GHS Label Elements
    • Pictograms:
      • Skull and Crossbones (GHS06)
      • Health Hazard (GHS08)
      • Environment (GHS09)
    • Signal Word: Danger
    • Hazard Statements (H-Statements):
      • H301 + H311 + H331: Toxic if swallowed, in contact with skin or if inhaled.
      • H373: May cause damage to organs (blood) through prolonged or repeated exposure.
      • H411: Toxic to aquatic life with long-lasting effects.
    • Precautionary Statements (P-Statements):
      • Prevention:
        • P260: Do not breathe dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray.
        • P261: Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray.
        • P273: Avoid release to the environment.
