which are accompanied by phenomena such as pressure increase,
Stability: This product is stable when stored and used under normal ambient
temperature.
Hazardous reaction: Contact with water or substances that can react with this

acid, other unknown compounds will be produced when exposed to high heat.
3.11 Toxicological information
Matters to which attention shall be paid, when writing this part, include:
a) The information provided shall be used to assess the health hazards of
substances and mixtures AND to classify their hazards. This information
includes:
1) Data on human health hazards (e.g., epidemiological studies, case
reports or human skin patch tests, etc.);
2) Animal test data (e.g., acute toxicity test, repeated toxicity test, etc.);
3) In vitro test data (e.g., in vitro mammalian cell chromosome aberration
test, Ames test, etc.);
4) Structure-activity relationship (SAR) [such as quantitative structure-
activity relationship (QSAR)].
b) Provide supporting toxicological information for the classification of health
hazards in SDS Part 2 - Hazard overview.
c) For animal test data, it shall fill in concisely, the type of test animal (sex),
route of exposure (oral, transdermal, inhalation, etc.), frequency, time,
dose. For the poisoning case report and epidemiological investigation
information, they shall be described separately.
d) It shall provide information on toxic effects (health effects), which are
caused by contact with the substance or mixture, according to different
routes of exposure (e.g., inhalation, skin contact, eye contact, ingestion).
example, according to the route of exposure.
m) For the description of the toxic effects (health effects) of the mixture, it
shall pay attention to the following issues:
1) For a specific toxic effect, if there is overall test (observation) data for
the mixture, the overall data shall be filled in; if there is no overall test
(observation) data for the mixture, it shall fill in the relevant data of the
component in SDS Part 3 - Ingredients/composition information.
2) The various components may interact in the body, causing changes in
their absorption, metabolism, excretion rates. Therefore, the toxic
effects may change; the total toxicity of the mixture may be different
from the toxicity of its components. It shall be considered when filling
in.
3) It shall be considered whether the concentration of each component is
sufficient to affect the total toxicity (health effect) of the mixture. It shall
list the information on the toxic effects (health effects) of the relevant
components, except in the following cases:
- If the same toxic effects (health effects) exist between the
components, it is not necessary to repeat them. For example, in the
case that both components can cause vomiting and diarrhea, it is not
necessary to list these symptoms twice; it is enough to describe the
mixture as being capable of causing vomiting and diarrhea.
- The existence concentration of the component is unlikely to cause
related effects. For example, if a mild irritant is diluted to a certain
concentration, by a non-irritating solution, THEN, the overall mixture
will not be able to cause irritation.
- The interaction between the components is difficult to predict.
Therefore, when the interaction information is not available, it cannot
be assumed arbitrarily. Instead, it shall describe the toxic effects
(health effects) of each component, separately.
n) For other health hazards, even if GHS does not make classification
requirements, relevant information shall be provided in this Part of the
SDS.
3.12 Ecological information
Matters to which attention shall be paid, when writing this part, include:
a) It shall provide the supporting information for the environmental hazard
classification in SDS Part 2 - Hazard overview.
