OXIDIZING PROPERTIES: Not sufficient for classification as oxidizer (Method A17 & UN Test 0.1)
10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
REACTIVITY: No reactions known.
STABILITY: Stable under normal conditions.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Exposure to moisture. Heating above decomposition temperature.
POSSIBILITY OF HAZARDOUS REACTIONS: Contact with combustible materials may initiate decomposition of the material and emission of
smoke.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: CO, HBr, Cl2, NOx, HCl, CO2
INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS: Oxidizing agents, bases, and combustible organic materials.
11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
ACUTE TOXICITY
ORAL LD
50
: 929 mg/kg - Rat
SKIN CORROSION/IRRITATION: Corrosive
SERIOUS EYE DAMAGE/IRRITATION: Corrosive (expected)
RESPIRATORY OR SKIN SENSITISATION: Sensitizer
GERM CELL MUTAGENICITY: Mutagenic by the Ames Test. Mutagenic in the mouse lymphoma L5178Y test system. Non genotoxic in an in-
vivo in micronucleous test in mice. Non genotoxic in an in-vivo liver unscheduled DNA synthesis (USD) assay.
CARCINOGENICITY
IARC: Not classified as a carcinogen.
NOTES: Not included in NTP 14th Report on Carcinogens.
STOT-SINGLE EXPOSURE: No effects on specific target organs have been identified.
STOT-REPEATED EXPOSURE: No effects on specific target organs have been identified.
ASPIRATION HAZARD: Not expected to occur.
12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
ECOTOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION: BCDMH and the main degradation product DMH are biodegradable and do not persist in the
environment.
BIOACCUMULATION/ACCUMULATION: Based on low Kow values, i.e. less than 1, BCDMH would not be predicted to significantly accumulate
in aquatic organisms, or absorb to organic material in soil or sediment.
AQUATIC TOXICITY (ACUTE)
96-HOUR LC
50
: 1.2 mg/l (eastern oyster, Acute flow through)
1.9 mg/l (Mysid shrimp, Acute flow through)
0.4 mg/l (Rainbow trout, Static)
0.46 mg/l (Bluegill sunfish, Static)
1.6 mg/l (Sheepshead minnow, Acute flow through)
48-HOUR EC
50
: 0.75 mg/l (Static) (Daphnia Magna)
GENERAL COMMENTS: Mobility in soil: There will be no exposure of BCDMH to soil. The main degradation product, DMH, is mobile in soil.
13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
DISPOSAL METHOD: Dispose of in approved landfill sites or an approved incinerator. Avoid access to streams, lakes or ponds. Observe all
federal, state and local environmental regulations when disposing of this material.
EMPTY CONTAINER: Crush and bury empty containers. Do NOT throw into publix waste disposal site. Avoid contact with organic materials
and moisture. See conditions to avoid in Section 10.
