· 11 Toxicological
information
- Acute
toxicity:
LD/LC50 values that are relevant for classification:
Oral: LD50: 647 mg/kg (mus)
LD50: 880 mg/kg (rat)
Dermal: LD50: 600 µL/kg (rbt)
Inhalative: LCLo/4H: 250 ppm/4H (rat)
Irritation of skin: mild: 500 mg (rbt)
- Primary
irritant effect:
- on
the skin: Corrosive effect on skin and mucous
membranes.
- on
the eye: Strong corrosive effect.
- Sensitization: No
sensitizing effects known.
- Other
information (about experimental toxicology):
Tumorigenic effects have been observed on tests with laboratory animals.
Reproductive effects have been observed on tests with laboratory
animals.
Mutagenic effects have been observed on tests with laboratory animals.
Mutagenic effects have been observed on tests with bacteria.
- Subacute
to chronic toxicity:
Corrosive materials are acutely destructive to the respiratory tract,
eyes, skin and digestive tract. Eye contact may result in
permanent damage and complete vision loss. Inhalation may result
in respiratory effects such as inflammation, edema, and chemical
pneumonitis. May cause coughing, wheezing, laryngitis, shortness
of breath, headache, nausea and vomiting. Ingestion may cause
damage to the mouth, throat and esophagus. May cause skin burns or
irritation depending on the severity of the exposure.
- Additional
toxicological information:
Danger through skin absorption.
Swallowing will lead to a strong corrosive effect on mouth and throat
and to the danger of perforation of esophagus and stomach.
To the best of our knowledge the acute and chronic toxicity of this
substance is not fully known.
IARC-2A: Probably carcinogenic to humans: limited human evidence;
sufficient evidence in experimental animals
NTP-2: Reasonably anticipated to be a carcinogen: limited evidence from
studies in humans or sufficient evidence from studies in experimental
animals.
