SECTION 11: Toxicological information
· 11.1 Information on toxicological effects
· Acute toxicity:
· LD/LC50 values relevant for classification:
No reliable study with this product is present.
This study is conducted on an analogous substance. (read-across)
7664-38-2 Orthophosphoric acid
Oral LD50 2600 mg/kg (rat) (equivalent to OECD 423)
· Specific symptoms in biological assay:
Phosphoric acid is classified as corrosive to the skin, therefore, no need to perform an acute dermal and an
acute inhalative toxicity tests.
· Primary irritant effect:
· on the skin: Caustic effect on skin and mucous membranes.
· on the eye: Strong caustic effect.
· Sensitization: No sensitizing effects known.
· Additional toxicological information:
Swallowing will lead to a strong caustic effect on mouth and throat and to the danger of perforation of
esophagus and stomach.
· Toxicokinetics, metabolism and distribution
This substance is not considered to have bioaccumulative potential as it is highly soluble in water and
phosphate levels in the body are regulated via homeostasis.
Wide distribution throughout the body is to be expected and excretion will be predominantly via urine.
Supporting studies show increased phosphorus retention in bone and increased urinary phosphorus excretion
after prolonged dietary administration of phosphoric acid and support the initial toxicokinetic assessment.
· Repeated dose toxicity
No reliable study with this product is present.
This study is conducted on an analogous substance. (read-across)
no classification is necessary
7664-38-2 Orthophosphoric acid
Oral NOAEL 250 mg/kg bw/day (rat) (OECD 422 (subchronic))
should not be classified for STOT - repeated exposure
· CMR effects (carcinogenity, mutagenicity and toxicity for reproduction)
· Mutagenicity: None
· Carcinogenicity:
no data available
(no carcinogenicity study needs to be performed as this substance is not genotoxic)
· Toxicity for reproduction:
no classification is necessary
7664-38-2 Orthophosphoric acid:
reproductive toxicity: NOAEL≥500 mg/kg bw/day ; rat; oral (OECD 422)
developmental toxicity: NOAEL≥410 mg/kg bw/day ; rat; oral
maternal toxicity: NOAEL≥410 mg/kg bw/day ; rat; oral (equivalent to OECD 414)

SECTION 12: Ecological information
· 12.1 Toxicity
· Aquatic toxicity:
No reliable study with this product is present.
This study is conducted on an analogous substance. (read-across)
Phosphoric acid toxicity is related to its acidic nature and, therefore, is more related to concentration than to
dose.
7664-38-2 Orthophosphoric acid
EC50/48 h (static)
>100 mg/L (Daphnia magna) (OECD 202, freshwater)
EC50/72 h (static)
>100 mg/L (algae) (OECD 201, freshwater)
median lethal pH 96h 3-3,25 (Bluegill fish)
fish mortality is caused by low pH value
· 12.2 Persistence and degradability
The substance is inorganic; therefore no biodegradation tests are applicable.
· 12.3 Bioaccumulative potential
Due to the distribution coefficient n-octanol/water an accumulation in organisms is not expected.
· 12.4 Mobility in soil
This substance is highly water soluble and dissociating.
When spilled onto soil, polyphosphoric acid will infiltrate downward and will be partially neutralized by
dissolving some of the soil material. On reaching the ground table polyphosphoric acid will be dispersed and
diluted. Therefore, the environmental assessment should be limited to the aquatic compartment.
· Other information:
Product should not get in high quantities into waste water because it may act as a plant nutrient and cause
eutrophication.
· Behaviour in sewage processing plants:
Polyphosphoric acid is of low toxicity to microorganisms, since in sewage treatment plants the
microorganisms are essentially exposed to mainly H2PO4- and HPO4- - ions, which are an essential
nutrient for them, and not to parent polyphosphoric acid or to low pH values.
· 12.5 Results of PBT and vPvB assessment
· PBT: No assessment is required for inorganic substances.
· vPvB: No assessment is required for inorganic substances.
· 12.6 Other adverse effects
Do not allow undiluted product or large quantities of it to reach ground water, water course or sewage
system.
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
· 13.1 Waste treatment methods
· Recommendation
Must not be disposed together with household garbage. Do not allow product to reach sewage system.
Must be specially treated adhering to official regulations.
· European waste catalogue
06 01 04* phosphoric and phosphorous acid
· Uncleaned packaging:
· Recommendation:
Empty contaminated packagings thoroughly. They may be recycled after thorough and proper cleaning.
Packagings that may not be cleansed are to be disposed of in the same manner as the product.
