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<br \/> multi-purpose combination, type OV\/AG (US) or type AXBEK (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>Acetone Industrial Grade \u2013 Physical and Chemical Properties<\/strong><br \/> Appearance: Clear, Colourless, volatile liquid<br \/> Odour: No Data Available<br \/> Odour Threshold: No Data Available<br \/> pH: No Data Available<br \/> Melting Point: Melting point\/range: \u2013 94\u00b0C<br \/> Boiling Point: 56\u00b0C at 1.013 hPa<br \/> Flash Point: \u2013 17.0\u00b0C (closed cup).<br \/> Evaporation: No Data Available<br \/> Flammability: No Data Available<br \/> Upper\/Lower Flammability or Explosive Limits: Upper explosion limit: 13% (V),<br \/> Lower explosion limit: 2% (V).<br \/> Vapour pressure: 533.3 hPa at 39.5\u00b0C,<br \/> 245.3 hPa at 20.0\u00b0C.<br \/> Vapour density: No Data Available<br \/> Relative density: 0.791 g\/mL at 25\u00b0C<br \/> Water solubility: Completely miscible<br \/> Partition Coefficien: Log Pow: \u2013 0.24<br \/> Auto-ignition Temperature: 465.0\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: 23.2 mN\/m at 20.0\u00b0C<\/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 \/> Incompatible Materials: Bases, Oxidizing agents, Reducing agents.<br \/> Acetone reacts violently with Phosphorous Oxychloride.<br \/> Hazardous Decomposition Products: Hazardous decomposition products formed under fire conditions \u2013 Carbon Oxides.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Acetone Industrial Grade \u2013 Toxicological Information<\/strong><br \/> Acute Toxicity: LD50 Oral \u2013 Rat \u2013 5.800 mg\/kg<br \/> Remarks: Behavioral: Altered sleep time (including change in righting reflex)<br \/> Behavioral: Tremor<br \/> Behavioral: Headache<br \/> Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea<br \/> LC50 Inhalation \u2013 Rat \u2013 8 h \u2013 50.100 mg\/m\u00b3<br \/> Remarks: Drowsiness, Dizziness, Unconsciousness<br \/> LD50 Dermal \u2013 Guinea pig \u2013 7.426 mg\/kg<br \/> Skin Corrosion\/Irritation: Rabbit \u2013<br \/> Result: Mild skin irritation \u2013 24 h<br \/> Serious Eye damage | Eye Irritation: Rabbit \u2013<br \/> Result: Eye irritation \u2013 24 h<br \/> Cell Mutagenicity: No Data Available<br \/> Carcinogenicity: This product is or contains a component that is not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity based on its IARC, ACGIH,<br \/> NTP, or EPA classification.<br \/> IARC: No component of this product present at levels greater than or equal to 0.1% is identified as probable, possible or confirmed<br \/> human carcinogen by IARC.<br \/> Reproductive toxicity: No Data Available<br \/> Specific Target Organ Toxicity \u2013 Single Exposure: May cause drowsiness or dizziness.<br \/> Specific Target Organ Toxicity \u2013 Repeated Exposure: No Data Available<br \/> Aspiration Hazard: No Data Available<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ecological Information<\/strong><br \/> Ecological Toxicity: Toxicity to fish:<br \/> LC50 \u2013 Oncorhynchus mykiss (rainbow trout) \u2013 5.540 mg\/l \u2013 96 h.<br \/> Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates:<br \/> LC50 \u2013 Daphnia magna (Water flea) \u2013 8.800 mg\/l \u2013 48 h.<br \/> Ecological Persistence and degradability: Biodegradability:<br \/> Result: 91% \u2013 Readily biodegradable (OECD Test Guideline 301B)<br \/> Bioaccumulative Potential: Does not bio-accumulate<br \/> Mobility in Soil: No Data Available<br \/> Results of PBT and vPvB Assessment: This substance contains no components considered to be either persistent, bio-accumulative and toxic (PBT), or very persistent and very bio-accumulative (vPvB) at levels of 0.1% or higher.<br \/> Other Adverse Effect: No Data Available<\/p>\n<p><strong>Disposal Considerations<\/strong><br \/> Waste Treatment Methods: Product \u2013<br \/> Burn in a chemical incinerator equipped with an afterburner and scrubber but exert extra care in igniting as this material is highly flammable.
