EXPLOSION

In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water.
EXPOSURE
STRICT HYGIENE! AVOID EXPOSURE OF (PREGNANT) WOMEN! AVOID EXPOSURE OF ADOLESCENTS AND CHILDREN!
IN ALL CASES CONSULT A DOCTOR!
  • INHALATION
    		• Blue skin. Convulsions. Headache. Sweating. Nausea. Shortness of breath. Unconsciousness. Vomiting. Elevated body temperature. Thirst. Loss of appetite.
    		Ventilation, local exhaust, or breathing protection.
    		Fresh air, rest. Artificial respiration if indicated. Refer for medical attention.
  • SKIN
    		• MAY BE ABSORBED! Yellow staining of the skin.
    		Protective gloves. Protective clothing.
    		Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap. Refer for medical attention.
  • EYES
    		• Pain. Redness.
    		Safety goggles, face shield, or eye protection in combination with breathing protection.
    		First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.
  • INGESTION
    		• Abdominal pain. Diarrhoea. (Further see Inhalation).
    		Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Wash hands before eating.
    		Induce vomiting (ONLY IN CONSCIOUS PERSONS!). Refer for medical attention.
    SPILLAGE DISPOSAL STORAGE PACKAGING & LABELLING
    Ventilation. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent and remove to safe place. Do NOT wash away into sewer (extra personal protection: chemical protection suit including self-contained breathing apparatus).
    		Provision to contain effluent from fire extinguishing. Separated from strong oxidants, food and feedstuffs. See Chemical Dangers. Well closed.
    		Do not transport with food and feedstuffs.

    PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE:
     BROWN VISCOUS OILY LIQUID , WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR.

    PHYSICAL DANGERS:

    CHEMICAL DANGERS:
     The substance decomposes on heating or on burning producing toxic fumes including nitrogen oxides. Hydrolyzed by acids and alkalis to dinoseb (ICSC #0149).

    OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS (OELs):
     TLV not established.


    		ROUTES OF EXPOSURE:
     The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its aerosol, through the skin and by ingestion.

    INHALATION RISK:
     No indication can be given about the rate in which a harmful concentration in the air is reached on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.

    EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE:
     The substance irritates the eyes. The substance may cause effects on the central nervous system. Exposure at high levels may result in death.

    EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE:
     The substance may have effects on the kidneys, liver and eyes , resulting in cataract (see Notes). May cause reproductive toxicity in humans.
    PHYSICAL
    PROPERTIES
    Boiling point at 0.53kPa: 170°C
    Melting point: 26-27°C
    		 Solubility in water, g/100 ml at 20°C: 0.22
    Vapour pressure, Pa at 20°C: 0.08
    ENVIRONMENTAL
    DATA
         		The substance is very toxic to aquatic organisms. This substance may be hazardous to the environment; special attention should be given to honey bees, birds, mammals. Avoid release to the environment in circumstances different to normal use.
    N O T E S
    Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is indicated. Carrier solvents used in commercial formulations may change physical and toxicological properties. Aretit, Hoe 02904, Ivosit, Phenotan are trade names. Also consult ICSC #0149 (Dinoseb).
