|
| IMPORTANT DATA | |
|
PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE:
CRYSTALS OR WHITE POWDER. CHEMICAL DANGERS: The substance decomposes on heating producing toxic fumes of nitrous oxides. Reacts with strong oxidants, strong bases, copper, copper alloys and nickel. 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: Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a nuisance-causing concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly. EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance irritates the eyes, the skin and the respiratory tract. The substance may cause effects on the kidneys. |
| PHYSICAL PROPERTIES | |
|
Decomposes below boiling point at 150°C
Relative density (water = 1): 0.086 Solubility in water, g/100 ml: 0.05 |
|
| ENVIRONMENTAL DATA | |
|
The substance is harmful to aquatic organisms.
|
| NOTES | |
|
Trilon, Titriplex, Versene acid are trade names.
