10.1 Reactivity

no data available

10.2 Chemical stability

Stable under recommended storage conditions.

10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactions

CombustibleDIISODECYL PHTHALATE is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides. Can generate electrostatic charges. [Handling Chemicals Safely 1980. p. 250].

12.2 Persistence and degradability

AEROBIC: In a semi-continuous activated sludge test (Soap and Detergent Association biodegradation test method), the mean degradation for diisodecyl phthalate was 68% in 24 hr(1). In a die-away phase of the testing, it took 9 days to achieve 90% degradation(1). Diisodecyl phthalate is confirmed to be degradable in the screening procedure of the Japanese Ministry of Trade and Industry (MITI) which uses a mixed inoculum derived from soil, fresh water and sewage(2). In an acclimated shake flask CO2 evolution test, loss of parent compound (primary degradation) as well as CO2 evolution (ultimate degradation) was measured using an inoculum prepared from soil and sewage, >99% of diisodecyl phthalate was lost and 56% of theoretical CO2 was evolved after 28 days(3). The biodegradation half-life was 9.6 days with a 4.9 day lag(3). Diisodecyl phthalate, present at 100 mg/L, reached 2% of its theoretical BOD in 2 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test(4). Diisodecyl phthalate, present at a concentration of 100 ppm, was degraded 14 and 30% after three days cultivation in water from the Mino River and Akashi Beach, Japan, respectively(5). Diisodecyl biodegraded 67% from an initial concentration of 48 ppm and 100 ppm in 28 days in activated sludge at 22 and 25°C, respectively(6). Diisodecyl phthalate degraded 42% in 21 days at 25°C from a starting concentration of 100 ppm(6). An aerobic aquatic half-life of 23 days was given for diisodecyl phthalate(7).

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential

BCFs of <3.6 and <14.4 were measured for diisodecyl phthalate at chemical concentrations of 1 and 0.1 mg/L, respectively, using carp (Cyprinus carpio) which were exposed over an 8-week period(1). According to a classification scheme(2), these BCFs suggest that bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). The mean log BCF of diisodecyl phthalate in Daphnia magna as determined in a 21 day test using ring-labeled chemical was 2.06(3), corresponding to a BCF of 115(SRC). The mean log BCF in mussels (Mytilus edulis) was 3.54 between 14 and 28 days also using ring-labeled ester(4), corresponding to a BCF of 3467(SRC). However depuration was rapid in mussels, the half-life being 3.5 days(4).

12.4 Mobility in soil

Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the log Koc of diisodecyl phthalate can be estimated to be 6.04(SRC). Other estimated log Koc values reported were 5.46 and 5.78(2). According to a classification scheme(3), these estimated log Koc values suggest that diisodecyl phthalate is expected to be immobile in soil. The average Koc of (14)C-diisodecyl phthalate using three standard USEPA sediments (supplied and characterized by the EPA) was measured at 2.86X10+5(4).

12.5 Other adverse effects

13.Disposal considerations

13.1 Disposal methods

Product

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.

Contaminated packaging

Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
