SECTION 10 STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
Reactivity
Stable under normal conditions of use.
Chemical stability
Stable under normal conditions of use.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Stable under normal conditions of use.
Conditions to avoid
Avoid heat, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources.
Incompatible materials
Strong oxidising agents.
Hazardous decomposition products
Thermal decomposition is highly dependent on conditions. A complex mixture of airborne solids, liquids,
gases, including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and other organic compounds will be evolved when this
material undergoes combustion or thermal or oxidative degradation.
SECTION 11 TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Acute toxicity:
Expected to be of low toxicity -
LD50 Oral (rat) > 2000 mg/kg
LC50 Inhalation greater than near-saturated vapour concentration (rat,
4h)
LD50 Dermal (rabbit) > 2000 mg/kg
Skin corrosion/irritation:
Mild irritant. Prolonged contact may cause defatting of skin which can
lead to dermatitis.
Serious eye
damage/irritation:
Mild irritant.
Respiratory or skin
sensitisation:
Not expected to be a sensitiser.
Germ cell mutagenicity:
Not mutagenic.
Carcinogenicity:
Not expected to be carcinogenic.
Reproductive toxicity:
Not expected to impair fertility.
Specific Target Organ
Toxicity (STOT) –
single exposure:
Inhalation of vapours or mists may cause irritation to the respiratory
system.
Specific Target Organ
Toxicity (STOT) –
Central nervous system: repeated exposure affects the nervous system.
Effects seen at high doses only.
