4.1 Description of necessary first-aid measures

General advice

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

If inhaled

Fresh air, rest. Refer immediately for medical attention.

In case of skin contact

Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. Refer for medical attention if skin irritation occurs.

In case of eye contact

Rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible). Refer for medical attention.

If swallowed

Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Give one or two glasses of water to drink. Refer immediately for medical attention.

4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed

Inhalation of vapor causes anesthesia, dizziness, and nausea. Vapor is highly irritating by inhalation routes and moderately irritating by dermal routes. Exposure of eyes to vapor may result in slight, transient injury to the cornea. (USCG, 1999)

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

/SRP:/ 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 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. /Halogenated Aliphatic Hydrocarbons and Related Compounds/

Carcinogenicity

Evaluation: There is inadequate evidence in humans for the carcinogenicity of 1,2,3-trichloropropane. There is sufficient evidence in experimental animals for the carcinogenicity of 1,2,3-trichloropropane. Overall evaluation: 1,2,3-Trichloropropane is probably carcinogenic to humans (Group 2A). In making the overall evaluation, the working group took into account the following evidence: (1) 1,2,3-Trichloropropane causes tumors at multiple sites and at high incidence in mice and rats. (2) The metabolism of 1,2,3-trichloropropane is qualitatively similar in human and rodent microsomes. (3) 1,2,3-Trichloropropane is mutagenic to bacteria and to cultured mammalian cells and binds to the DNA of animals treated in vivo.

• Toxicity to algae: no data available
• Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available

12.2 Persistence and degradability

AEROBIC: 1,2,3-Trichloropropane, present at 100 ppm, reached 0% of its Theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 ppm in the Japanese MITI test(1). 1,2,3-Trichloropropane showed little degradation in an anaerobic serum bottle test over a 60 day period. It was one of 12 chlorinated aliphatic compounds (1-3 carbons) in the test mixture. Almost complete removal was obtained in a 7-day aerobic bottle test with methanogenic cultures, but not with phenol-adapted cultures(2).

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential

BCF values of 5.4-12 and 5.3-13 were calculated in fish for 1,2,3-trichloropropane at concentrations of 0.2 and 0.02 mg/L, respectively, using carp (Cyprinus carpio) which were exposed over an 8-week period(1). According to a classification scheme(2), these BCF values suggest the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).

12.4 Mobility in soil

The partition coefficient of the compound to Captina silt loam (pH 4.97, 1.49% OC) and McLaurin sandy loam (pH 4.43, 0.66% OC) soils were 1.41 and 0.508, respectively(1), corresponding to calculated Koc values are 95 and 77(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), these Koc values suggest that 1,2,3-trichloropropane is expected to have high 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.
