| IMPORTANT DATA | |||
|
PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE: COLOURLESS CRYSTALS OR GREY TO WHITE POWDER. CHEMICAL DANGERS: The substance decomposes slowly on contact with bases. OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: TLV not established. MAK: Germ cell mutagen group: 3A; (DFG 2005). |
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its aerosol. INHALATION RISK: Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly on spraying or when dispersed, especially if powdered. EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: Animal tests show that this substance possibly causes toxicity to human reproduction or development. | ||
| PHYSICAL PROPERTIES | |||
|
Melting point (decomposes): 302-307°C Density: 0.27 g/cm³ Solubility in water, g/100 ml at 24°C: 0.0008 Vapour pressure, Pa at 20°C: negligible |
Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 1.49 | ||
| ENVIRONMENTAL DATA | |||
|
The substance is very toxic to aquatic organisms. This substance does enter the environment under normal use. Great care, however, should be given to avoid any additional release, e.g. through inappropriate disposal.
| |||
| NOTES | |||
|
If the substance is formulated with solvents also consult the ICSCs of these materials. Carrier solvents used in commercial formulations may change physical and toxicological properties.
