General advice

Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.

If inhaled

If breathed in, move person into fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Consult a physician.

In case of skin contact

Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a physician.

In case of eye contact

Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and consult a physician.

If swallowed

Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with water. Consult a physician.

4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed

Harmful if swallowed, inhaled or absorbed through skin. High concentrations are extremely destructive to mucous membrane and upper respiratory tract, eyes and skin. Symptoms of exposure may include burning sensation, coughing, wheezing, laryngitis, shortness of breath, headache, nausea and vomiting. (USCG, 1999)

4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary

Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR if necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on the left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. /Turpentine, terpenes, and related compounds/

12.1 Toxicity

  • Toxicity to fish: LC50; Species: Pimephales promelas (Fathead minnow); Conditions: feshwater, semi-static, 25.5°C, pH 7.70 + or -0.2, oxygen concentration 6.7 mg/mL; Concentration: 0.28 mg/L for 96 hr /98% pure 1R(+)-isover. Measured purity 91%/[USEPA; High Production Volume Information System (HPVIS). Detailed Chemical Results Chemical Name: Bicyclo
  • Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: LC50; Species: Daphnia magna (Water flea, age <24 hr); Conditions: freshwater, static, 22°C, pH 8.0 (7.4-9.4), hardness 173 mg/L CaCO3, dissolved oxygen >60%; Concentration: 68000 ug/L for 24 hr (95% confidence interval: 24000-190000 ug/L) /commercial grade >80%
  • Toxicity to algae: no data available
  • Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available

12.2 Persistence and degradability

AEROBIC: Soil slurry samples taken from three different Georgia watersheds were found to readily degrade alpha-pinene under aerobic conditions, undergoing complete removal within 250 hours after a short lag period(1,2). The concentration of alpha-pinene in seawater samples decreased from 0.41 ng/L to 0.25 ng/L when incubated with macrophytes for 6 hrs at 10°C(3). The concentration of alpha-pinene in the influent to a kraft mill aerated stabilization basin with a 7-8 day retention time decreased from 0.20 ppm to 0.04 ppm(4). alpha-Pinene, present at 100 mg/L, reached 95% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test(5).

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential

An estimated BCF of 1,040 was calculated in fish for alpha-pinene(SRC), using a log Kow of 4.83(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is very high(SRC), provided the compound is not metabolized by the organism(SRC).

12.4 Mobility in soil

The Koc of alpha-pinene is estimated as 2,600(SRC), using a water solubility of 2.49 mg/L(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that alpha-pinene is expected to have slight mobility in soil.

12.5 Other adverse effects

no data available

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.
