SECTION 11Toxicological information
| Likely routes of exposure | Skin and eye contact; inhalation of ammonia vapor or mist; ingestion. |
| Symptoms | Skin burns and serious eye damage; nose and throat irritation from ammonia vapor in poorly ventilated areas. |
| Acute toxicity (numerical measures) | Ingredient data: ammonium hydroxide oral LD50 (rat) 350 mg/kg. White mineral oil is not classified for acute toxicity; no numerical value is used in the calculation. Mixture ATE (oral, calculated, Appendix A.1.3.6): about 4,400 mg/kg, applying the ammonium hydroxide value to the 8% solution as added. Not classified for acute toxicity. |
| Skin corrosion/irritation | Category 1 (mixture pH 11.6, 29 CFR 1910.1200 Appendix A, A.2.3.1.3). |
| Serious eye damage/irritation | Category 1. In the absence of any other information, a mixture with pH 11.5 or higher is considered to cause serious eye damage (Appendix A, A.3.3.1.2). |
| Respiratory or skin sensitization; germ cell mutagenicity; reproductive toxicity; STOT repeated exposure | Not classified. |
| Specific target organ toxicity, single exposure | Not classified. Ammonia (respiratory tract irritant) at 2% is below the 20% concentration limit in Appendix A.8.3.4.5. |
| Aspiration hazard | Not classified. The white mineral oil has a kinematic viscosity of about 68 mm²/s at 40 °C, above the 20.5 mm²/s criterion in Table A.10.1, so it is not a Category 1 aspiration ingredient (Appendix A.10.3.3). |
| Delayed, immediate and chronic effects | Immediate: skin burns and eye damage. Chronic: prolonged skin contact with oil can cause dryness or dermatitis. |
| Interactive effects | No information available. |
| Carcinogenicity | White mineral oil (highly refined, NF/technical grade): IARC Group 3. NTP lists only untreated and mildly treated mineral oils, which do not include this grade. No ingredient is regulated by OSHA as a carcinogen. |
| Basis of classification (Table D.1, 11(g)) | The mixture has not been tested for toxicity. Skin and eye classification uses the measured mixture pH (A.2.3.1.3, A.3.3.1.2). Other endpoints use the ingredient concentration methods in Appendix A (A.1.3.6, A.8.3.4, A.10.3.3) and ingredient data. |
SECTION 12Ecological information
| Ecotoxicity | Product not tested. Ammonium hydroxide is very toxic to fish (bluegill LC50 0.024 to 0.093 mg/L, 48 h). White mineral oil: no data available. |
| Persistence and degradability | Ammonia is converted by nitrification. Mineral oil degrades slowly. |
| Bioaccumulative potential | No information available. |
| Mobility in soil | Oil phase has low mobility and adsorbs to soil. |
| Other adverse effects | Oil can form a sheen or film on water. |
SECTION 13Disposal considerations
Discarded unused product does not exhibit the corrosivity characteristic: the pH (11.6) is below the 12.5 limit in 40 CFR 261.22(a)(1), and it is not expected to be ignitable. The generator must still make a hazardous waste determination (40 CFR 262.11). No ingredient is a listed P or U waste. Do not discharge to storm drains or surface water; oil content can cause a reportable sheen. Recover or dispose of through a permitted facility in accordance with federal, state and local regulations.
SECTION 14Transport information
| DOT classification (49 CFR) | Not regulated as a hazardous material for transport, except a single package holding 12,500 lb or more of product (see Hazardous substance below). Class 8 not met by the 49 CFR 173.137(d)(2) calculation method (Class 8 ingredients 2%, below 5%); not Class 3 (no flash point to 93 °C). |
| UN number; proper shipping name; class; packing group | Not applicable (not regulated). For a package that holds the RQ: see Hazardous substance below. |
| Hazardous substance (49 CFR 171.8) | Ammonium hydroxide, RQ 1,000 lb (454 kg) per 40 CFR 302.4. The ammonium hydroxide solution is counted as the hazardous substance (Section 15): 8% of the product, above the 2% concentration for a 1,000 lb RQ in the 171.8 table. A single package holding 12,500 lb or more of product (a cargo tank) is a hazardous substance, shipped as Class 9 (173.140(b)): RQ, UN3082, Environmentally hazardous substance, liquid, n.o.s. (Ammonium hydroxide), 9, III. Emergency Response Guidebook Guide 171. |
| Environmental hazards | Not a marine pollutant. Appendix B to 172.101 lists ammonia solutions only above 10% ammonia, and the 25% solution added is 8% of the product, below the 10% concentration in the 171.8 definition. |
| Transport in bulk (IMO instruments) | No information available. |
| Special precautions | Keep from freezing. Do not load with acids or chlorine bleach products. |
SECTION 15Regulatory information
