ACUTE TOXICITY: LC
50
= 3.6 ppm (equals 7.06 mg/m
3
)
SKIN CORROSION/IRRITATION. The gas is corrosive to the skin and eyes. Ozone concentrations
between 2 mg/m3 and 10 mg/m3 trigger injuries of the conjunctiva and the mucosae of the upper
respiratory tract as well as of the alveolar epithelium even after short exposure durations (severe
lacrimation, changes of the visual acuity, disorders of the respiratory function, cyanosis and toxic lung
edema)
SKIN SENSITIZATION: Not expected to be a skin sensitizer.
GERM CELL MUTAGENICITY: Not expected to cause heritable genetic effects.
CARCINOGENICITY– Ozone gas is considered to be a mutagenic carcinogen.
REPODUCTIVE TOXICITY: ozone gas is not classified for reproductive toxicity
TERATOGENICITY/EMBRYOTOXICITY: ozone gas is not classified for reproductive toxicity
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY (SINGLE EXPOSURE): Respiratory tract
irritation, difficulty breathing
SPECIFIC TARGET ORGAN TOXICITY (REPEATED EXPOSURE): Repeated inhalation
exposure may result in damage to the respiratory tract.
ASPIRATION HAZARD: not applicable.
SECTION 12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
12.1 TOXICITY: Ozone: Aquatic Acute 1: All LC50 values for fish and invertebrates were substantially
lower than 1 mg/l, the upper limit for classification of a substance for acute aquatic toxicity in category 1.
Aquatic Chronic 1 NOEC
chronic
for ozone in fish is ca. 2 µg/L.
12.2 PERSISTENCE AND DEGRADABILITY: inherently biodegradable.
12.3 BIOACCUMULATIVE POTENTIAL: Not applicable.
12.4 MOBILITY IN SOIL: Not applicable
12.5 RESULTS OF PBT AND vPvB ASSESSMENT: Ozone is an inorganic substance and therefore PBT
and vPvB criteria are not applicable. Degradation or transformation products of ozone are as well
inorganic (oxygen, short lived OH-radicals) and not relevant for PBT assessment.
12.6 OTHER ADVERSE EFFECTS: No information available.
SECTION 13 - DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
13.1 WASTE TREATMENT METHODS
13.1.1 Product/Packaging disposal
Generating devices should be disposed of properly following manufacturer’s directions. Ozone
will naturally decay back to oxygen and not reach dangerous levels when used as directed in
Enozo Electrolytic ozone generators.
13.1.2 Waste treatment
Dilute product prior to disposing of in domestic waste
13.1.3 Sewage disposal
Not applicable
13.1.14 Other disposal recommendations
none
