The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace.<br \/> Respiratory Protection: Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face particle respirator with multi-purpose combination, type OV\/AG (US) or type ABEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator. Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Physical and Chemical Properties<\/strong><br \/> Appearance: Clear, Colourless liquid<br \/> Odour: Ether-like<br \/> Odour Threshold: No Data Available<br \/> pH: No Data Available<br \/> Melting Point: Melting point\/range: \u2013 48\u00b0C (lit).<br \/> Boiling Point: 81 \u2013 82\u00b0C (lit).<br \/> Flash Point: 6.0\u00b0C (closed cup)Evaporation: 5.8<br \/> Flammability: No Data Available<br \/> Upper\/Lower Flammability or Explosive Limits: Upper explosion limit: 16% (V),<br \/> Lower explosion limit: 3% (V).<br \/> Vapour pressure: 98.64 hPa at 20\u00b0C,<br \/> Vapour density: 1.42 \u2013 (Air = 1.0)<br \/> Relative density: 0.786 g\/cm\u00b3 at 25\u00b0C<br \/> Water solubility: Completely Miscible<br \/> Partition Coefficien: log Pow: \u2013 0.54 at 25\u00b0C<br \/> Auto-ignition Temperature: 524.0\u00b0C<br \/> Decomposition Temperature: No Data Available<br \/> Viscosity: No Data Available<br \/> Explosive properties: No Data Available<br \/> Oxidizing properties: No Data Available<br \/> Other Safety Info: Surface tension \u2013 29.0 mN\/m at 20.0\u00b0C<br \/> Relative vapour density \u2013 1.42 \u2013 (Air = 1.0)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stability and Reactivity<\/strong><br \/> Reactivity: No Data Available<br \/> Chemical Stability: Stable under recommended storage conditions.<br \/> Possibility of hazardous reactions: No Data Available<br \/> Conditions to Avoid: Heat, flames and sparks.<br \/> Extremes of temperature and direct sunlight.<br \/> Incompatible Materials: Acids, Bases, Oxidizing agents, Reducing agents, Alkali metals<br \/> Hazardous Decomposition Products: Hazardous decomposition products formed under fire conditions \u2013 Carbon Oxides, Nitrogen Oxides.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Toxicological Information<\/strong><br \/> Acute Toxicity: LD50 Oral \u2013 Mouse \u2013 male and female \u2013 617 mg\/kg \u2013 (OECD Test Guideline 401).<br \/> LC50 Inhalation \u2013 Mouse \u2013 male and female \u2013 4 h \u2013 6,022 mg\/l \u2013 (OECD Test Guideline 403).<br \/> Inhalation: (Regulation (EC) No 1272\/2008, Annex VI)<br \/> LD50 Dermal \u2013 Rabbit \u2013 male and female \u2013 &gt; 2.000 mg\/kg \u2013 (OECD Test Guideline 402)<br \/> Dermal: (Regulation (EC) No 1272\/2008, Annex VI)Skin Corrosion\/Irritation: Rabbit \u2013<br \/> Result: No skin irritation \u2013 4 h \u2013 (OECD Test Guideline 404)<br \/> Serious Eye damage | Eye Irritation: Rabbit<br \/> Result: Eye irritation \u2013 (OECD Test Guideline 405)<br \/> Cell Mutagenicity: Ames test:<br \/> S. typhimurium \u2013 Result: negative<br \/> In vitro mammalian cell gene mutation test:<br \/> Chinese hamster ovary cells \u2013 Result: negative.<br \/> Mutagenicity (mammal cell test): chromosome aberration \u2013<br \/> Chinese hamster ovary cells \u2013 Result: Positive results were obtained in some in vitro tests (National Toxicology Program).<br \/> Sister chromatid exchange assay:<br \/> Chinese hamster ovary cells \u2013 Result: negative<br \/> Sister chromatid exchange:<br \/> Saccharomyces cerevisiae \u2013 Result: positive \u2013 Cytogenetic analysis (ECHA)<br \/> In vitro mammalian cell gene mutation test:<br \/> Mouse lymphoma test \u2013 Result: negative \u2013 OECD Test Guideline 474<br \/> Mouse \u2013 male and female \u2013 Result: negative<br \/> Carcinogenicity: No evidence of carcinogenicity in animal studies.<br \/> IARC: No component of this product present at levels greater than or equal to 0.1% is identified as probable, possible or confirmed human carcinogen by IARC.<br \/> Reproductive toxicity: Animal testing did not show any effects on fertility.<br \/> Specific Target Organ Toxicity \u2013 Single Exposure: The substance or mixture is not classified as specific target organ toxicant, single exposure.<br \/> Specific Target Organ Toxicity \u2013 Repeated Exposure: The substance or mixture is not classified as specific target organ toxicant, repeated exposure.<br \/> Aspiration Hazard: No Data Available<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ecological Information<\/strong><br \/> Ecological Toxicity: Toxicity to fish:<br \/> Flow-through test LC50 \u2013 Pimephales promelas (fathead minnow) \u2013 1.640 mg\/l \u2013 96 h \u2013 Remarks: (ECHA).<br \/> Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates:<br \/> Static test LC50 \u2013 Artemia salina (Brine shrimp) \u2013 400 mg\/l \u2013 24 h \u2013 Remarks: (ECHA).<br \/> Toxicity to algae:<br \/> Static test NOEC \u2013 Phaeodactylum tricornutum \u2013 400 mg\/l \u2013 72 h \u2013 (ISO 10253).<br \/> Static test ErC50 \u2013 Phaeodactylum tricornutum \u2013 9.696 mg\/l \u2013 72 h \u2013 (ISO 10253).
