03 · GHS classification
Carboxin hazard classification
Harmonised classification under CLP Annex VI. This is the legally binding classification in the EU; other jurisdictions may differ.
Carboxin pictograms and signal word
Carboxin hazard class and category
| Hazard class | Category | From code | Pictogram |
|---|---|---|---|
| Skin sensitisation GHS chapter 3.4 | Category 1 or 1A or 1B | H317 | GHS07 |
| Specific target organ toxicity - repeated exposure GHS chapter 3.9 | Category 2 | H373 | GHS08 |
| Hazardous to the aquatic environment - acute GHS chapter 4.1 | Category 1 | H400 | GHS09 |
| Hazardous to the aquatic environment - chronic GHS chapter 4.1 | Category 1 | H410 | GHS09 |
Where two values are shown with “or”, the hazard statement is shared by more than one category or by more than one class, and the code alone does not say which. H272, for example, belongs to oxidising liquids and to oxidising solids — the physical state decides. The binding answer for a specific entry is in the CLP Annex VI table itself.
Carboxin hazard statements (H-codes)
| Code | Hazard statement |
|---|---|
| H373 | May cause damage to organs <or state all organs affected, if known> through prolonged or repeated exposure <state route of exposure if it is conclusively proven that no other routes of exposure cause the hazard>. |
| H317 | May cause an allergic skin reaction. |
| H400 | Very toxic to aquatic life. |
| H410 | Very toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects. |
This page lists only the codes assigned to Carboxin. The full reference lives on the hazard statements hub, the precautionary statements hub and the GHS pictograms hub.
Safety Data Sheet
Getting an SDS for Carboxin
A Safety Data Sheet is written for a product, not for a substance: the supplier of the grade you actually buy issues it, so two suppliers of Carboxin issue two different sheets. That is why there is no single authoritative SDS for a substance to download — what there is, is the job of collecting the sheets for the products you hold and keeping them current as suppliers revise them.
04 · Precautionary statements
Carboxin precautionary statements
CLP Annex VI assigns 11 precautionary statements to Carboxin. They are grouped the way a label groups them: what to do before handling, what to do when something has already happened, how to store it and how to dispose of it.
Prevention
What to do before and during handling so the hazard never happens.
Response
What to do once exposure, spillage or fire has already happened.
Disposal
What has to happen to the contents and the empty container.

05 · Names in the regulation
Carboxin name in 23 EU languages
CLP Annex VI Part 3 is published in every language edition of the regulation, and the identification column is written out in each of them. Nothing below is translated by us: each line is the name as that edition prints it. Under Art. 18(2) the substance name from Annex VI is a lawful product identifier, so this is the wording to put on a label going to that market — and where the cell lists several designations, any one of them qualifies.

Carboxin carcinogenicity classification
Cancer Classification: Not Likely to be Carcinogenic to Humans

An IARC group and a CLP classification answer different questions. IARC judges whether the evidence for cancer in humans is strong enough; CLP Annex VI is the legally binding EU classification. A substance can carry one and not the other.

10 · Questions
Carboxin — frequently asked questions
What is the CAS number of Carboxin?
The CAS number of Carboxin is 5234-68-4. Its EC number is 226-031-1.
What is the chemical formula of Carboxin?
The molecular formula of Carboxin is C12H13NO2S and its molecular weight is 235.3 g/mol.
What does a Carboxin label have to show?
Under CLP Annex VI the label for Carboxin carries the pictograms Exclamation mark, Health hazard and Environment and the signal word is Warning.
Is Carboxin flammable?
CLP Annex VI assigns Carboxin no flammability hazard class. That is not a statement that it cannot burn: the harmonised list only records the hazards that were assessed for it. The flash point reported for it is 203 °C (397.4 °F) (HSDB).
Is Carboxin a carcinogen?
CLP Annex VI records no harmonised carcinogenicity classification for Carboxin. Annex VI is a list of agreed classifications, not a list of substances found safe, so this is an absence of a classification rather than a clean bill of health.
What is the melting point of Carboxin?
The melting point reported for Carboxin is 92 °C (197.6 °F), range, midpoint shown (HSDB).
How should Carboxin be stored?
Store in cool, dry area out of reach of children and animals. (Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB))
