| IMPORTANT DATA | |||
|
PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE: LIGHT YELLOW TO BROWN CRYSTALLINE MASS (SOLIDIFIED OIL). CHEMICAL DANGERS: The substance decomposes on distillation or on burning producing toxic fumes of nitrogen oxides and chloride. OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: TLV not established. |
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation and by ingestion. INHALATION RISK: Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly on spraying. EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance irritates severely the eyes. EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: The substance may have effects on the liver, resulting in impaired functions and tissue lesions. | ||
| PHYSICAL PROPERTIES | |||
|
Boiling point: (estimated) 319-347°C Melting point: 50°C Relative density (water = 1): 1.2 Solubility in water, g/100 ml at 20°C: 0.14 Vapour pressure, Pa at 20°C: negligible |
Flash point: 192°C Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 4.56 | ||
| ENVIRONMENTAL DATA | |||
|
The substance is very toxic to aquatic organisms. Avoid release to the environment in circumstances different to normal use.
| |||
| NOTES | |||
|
If the substance is formulated with solvent(s) also consult the card(s) (ICSC) of the solvent(s). Carrier solvents used in commercial formulations may change physical and toxicological properties. Bromazil, Deccozil, Fecundal, Florasan, Freshgard, Fungaflor, Fungazil, Imaverol, Impala, Magnate, Sanazil are trade names.
