This recommendation is advisory only and must be evaluated by an industrial hygienist and safety officer familiar with the specific situation of anticipated use by our customers. It should not be construed as offering an approval for any specific use scenario.<br \/> Body Protection: Complete suit protecting against chemicals. Flame retardant anti-static protective clothing. The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace Respiratory Protection: Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face respirator with multipurpose combination (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: Aromatic<br \/> Odour Threshold: No Data Available<br \/> pH: No Data Available<br \/> Melting Point: Melting point\/range: -93 \u00b0C<br \/> Boiling Point: 110.1 \u2013 111.5 \u00b0C<br \/> Flash Point: 4,0 \u00b0C \u2013 closed cup<br \/> Evaporation: No Data Available<br \/> Flammability: No data available<br \/> Upper\/Lower Flammability or Explosive Limits: Upper explosion limit: 7 %(V), Lower explosion limit: 1,2 %(V)<br \/> Vapour pressure: 29,1 hPa at 20,0 \u00b0C<br \/> Vapour density: No Data Available<br \/> Relative density: 0,865 g\/mL at 25 \u00b0C<br \/> Water solubility: 0,5 g\/l at 15 \u00b0C<br \/> Partition Coefficien: No Data Available<br \/> Auto-ignition Temperature: 535,0 \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: No Data Available<\/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: Strong oxidizing agents<br \/> Hazardous Decomposition Products: Carbon Oxides<\/p>\n<p><strong>Toxicological Information<\/strong><br \/> Acute Toxicity: LD50 Oral \u2013 Rat \u2013 &gt; 5.580 mg\/kg<br \/> LC50 Inhalation \u2013 Rat \u2013 4 h \u2013 12.500 \u2013 28.800 mg\/m3<br \/> LD50 Dermal \u2013 Rabbit \u2013 12.196 mg\/kg<br \/> Skin Corrosion\/Irritation: Rabbit<br \/> Result: Skin irritation \u2013 24 h<br \/> Serious Eye damage | Eye Irritation: Rabbit<br \/> Result: No eye irritation<br \/> (OECD Test Guideline 405)<br \/> Cell Mutagenicity: Rat<br \/> Liver<br \/> DNA damage<br \/> Carcinogenicity: 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: Damage to fetus possible<br \/> Suspected human reproductive toxicant<br \/> Reproductive toxicity \u2013 Rat \u2013 Inhalation<br \/> Paternal Effects: Spermatogenesis (including genetic material, sperm morphology,motility, and count).<br \/> Experiments have shown reproductive toxicity effects in male and female laboratory animals.<br \/> Developmental Toxicity \u2013 Rat \u2013 Oral<br \/> Effects on Embryo or Fetus: Fetotoxicity (except death, e.g., stunted fetus).<br \/> Specific Target Organ Toxicity \u2013 Single Exposure: No Data Available<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 7,63 mg\/l \u2013 96 h<br \/> NOEC \u2013 Pimephales promelas (fathead minnow) \u2013 5,44 mg\/l \u2013 7 d<br \/> Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates:<br \/> EC50 \u2013 Daphnia magna (Water flea) \u2013 8,00 mg\/l \u2013 24 h<br \/> Immobilization EC50 \u2013 Daphnia magna (Water flea) \u2013 6 mg\/l \u2013 48 h<br \/> Toxicity to algae:<br \/> EC50 \u2013 Chlorella vulgaris (Fresh water algae) \u2013 245,00 mg\/l \u2013 24 h<br \/> EC50 \u2013 Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata (green algae) \u2013 10,00 mg\/l \u2013 24 h<br \/> Ecological Persistence and degradability: Biodegradability Result: \u2013 Readily biodegradable<br \/> Bioaccumulative Potential: Bioaccumulation Leuciscus idus (Golden orfe) \u2013 3 d \u2013 0,05 mg\/l<br \/> Bioconcentration factor (BCF): 90<br \/> Mobility in Soil: No Data Available<br \/> Results of PBT and vPvB Assessment: This substance\/mixture contains no components considered to be either persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic (PBT), or very persistent and very bioaccumulative (vPvB) at levels of 0.1% or higher.<br \/> Other Adverse Effect: Toxic to aquatic life.<\/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.
