EXPOSURE
PREVENT DISPERSION OF DUST! AVOID EXPOSURE OF (PREGNANT) WOMEN!
IN ALL CASES CONSULT A DOCTOR!
  • INHALATION

  • Local exhaust or breathing protection.
    Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention.
  • SKIN
  • MAY BE ABSORBED!
    Protective gloves. Protective clothing.
    Remove contaminated clothes.
  • EYES
  • Redness.

    First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.
  • INGESTION

  • Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work.
    Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer for medical attention.
    SPILLAGE DISPOSAL STORAGE PACKAGING & LABELLING
    Sweep spilled substance into containers; if appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting.
    Cool. Dry.

    PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE:
    COLOURLESS TO WHITE, CRYSTALLINE SOLID.

    PHYSICAL DANGERS:


    CHEMICAL DANGERS:
    The substance decomposes on heating producing very toxic fumes and gases (hydrogen chloride - see ICSC # 0163, oxides of nitrogen, cyanides).

    OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS (OELs):
    TLV not established.
    MAK not established.


    ROUTES OF EXPOSURE:
    The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation through the skin by ingestion.

    INHALATION RISK:
    Evaporation at 20░C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly.

    EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE:
    The substance irritates the eyes. The substance is moderately toxic by skin contact.

    EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE:
    May cause reproductive toxicity in humans.
    PHYSICAL
    PROPERTIES
    Melting point: 167-169░C
    Relative density (water = 1): 0.35 (fluffy); 0.45 (packed)
    Solubility in water, g/100 ml at 25░C: 0.02
    Vapour pressure, Pa at 20░C: <10
    Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 2.24
    ENVIRONMENTAL
    DATA

    N O T E S
    Herbicide. Formulation types: Suspension concentrate; wettable powder; granules. Also in mixed formulations. Insufficient data are available on the effect of this substance on human health, therefore utmost care must be taken. Carrier solvents used in commercial formulations may change physical and toxicological properties. Bladex 80WP, DW 3418, Fortrol, Payze, SD 15418, and WL 19805 are trade names.
