IMPORTANT DATA

Physical State; Appearance
YELLOW OR BROWN VISCOUS LIQUID

Chemical dangers
The substance decomposes on heating between 150-300°C producing toxic fumes including hydrogen cyanide, hydrogen chloride. Reacts with strong bases and strong oxidants.

Occupational exposure limits
TLV not established.
MAK not established.

Routes of exposure
The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its aerosol and by ingestion.

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, the skin and the respiratory tract. The substance may cause effects on the nervous system.

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

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES	ENVIRONMENTAL DATA
Decomposes below boiling point Relative density (water = 1): 1.2 Solubility in water: none Vapour pressure, Pa at 20°C: negligible Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 4.4-6.2	The substance is very toxic to aquatic organisms. This substance may be hazardous in the environment; special attention should be given to honey bees. This substance does enter the environment under normal use. Great care, however, should be given to avoid any additional release, e.g. through inappropriate disposal.

NOTES

Carrier solvents used in commercial formulations may change physical and toxicological properties.
If the substance is formulated with solvents also consult the ICSCs of these materials.
Do NOT take working clothes home.
Sumicidin, Pydrin, Belmark are trade names.
