IMPORTANT DATA

Physical State; Appearance
ODOURLESS YELLOWISH BROWN VISCOUS LIQUID.

Chemical dangers
The substance can presumably form explosive peroxides. Reacts with strong oxidants.

Occupational exposure limits
TLV not established.
MAK: skin absorption (H); sensitization of skin (Sh); Carcinogen category: 3A; (DFG 2004).

Routes of exposure
The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its vapour.

Inhalation risk
No indication can be given about the rate in which a harmful concentration in the air is reached on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.

Effects of short-term exposure
The substance is irritating to the eyes and the skin. Exposure could cause lowering of consciousness.

Effects of long-term or repeated exposure
Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis. Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization.

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES	ENVIRONMENTAL DATA
Melting point: 8-12°C Relative density (water = 1): 1.17 Solubility in water: see Notes Relative vapour density (air = 1): 11.7 Relative density of the vapour/air-mixture at 20°C (air = 1): see Notes Flash point: 79°C o.c.

NOTES

Boiling point, solubility in water, vapour pressure, relative density of the vapour/air mixture, and auto-ignition temperature are unknown in the literature.
Check for peroxides prior to distillation; eliminate if found.
