Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
14(C)Niacinamide was incorporated into an oil-in-water (o/w) skin cream and into a 30% (w/w) soap base and applied to the skin of female Colworth Wistar rats. The final concentration of niacinamide in the soap solution was approximately 0.3% (w/v) and was 1% (w/w) in the skin cream. Application of the skin cream and soap paste was made to rat skin at approximately 20 mg/sq cm. The cream was carefully massaged over 10 sq cm of skin for up to 5 min before covering with polythene-lined occlusive protective patches. The rats were placed in metabolism cages for 48 hr during which time all excreta was collected. At 48 hr, the animals were killed and the patch, carcass, and treated area of skin were assayed for 14(C). Up to 32% 14(C) was recovered in excreta and in the carcasses from rats treated with skin cream containing 14(C)Niacinamide and up to 30% from those treated with soap paste.
5.Fire-fighting measures
5.1 Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media
This chemical is a noncombustible solid. Use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray, or alcohol foam extinguishers. Poisonous gases are produced in fire. If material of contaminated runoff enters waterways, notify downstream users of potentially contaminated waters. Notify local health and fire officials and pollution control agencies. From a secure, explosion-proof location, use water spray to cool exposed containers. If cooling streams are ineffective (venting sound increase in volume and pitch, tank discolors, or shows any signs of deforming), withdraw immediately to a secure position. If employees are expected to fight fires, they must be trained and equipped in OSHA 1910.156.
5.2 Specific hazards arising from the chemical
no data available
5.3 Special protective actions for fire-fighters
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
6.Accidental release measures
6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Use personal protective equipment. Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Avoid breathing dust. For personal protection see section 8.
6.2 Environmental precautions
Personal protection: particulate filter respirator adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Sweep spilled substance into covered containers. If appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting. Wash away remainder with plenty of water.
6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Evacuate persons not wearing protective equipment from area of spill or leak until clean up is complete. Remove all ignition sources. Use HEPA vacuum or wet method to reduce dust during cleanup. Do not dry sweep. Collect powdered material in the most convenient and safe manner and deposit in sealed containers. Ventilate after clean up is complete. It may be necessary to contain and dispose of this chemical as a hazardous waste. If material of contaminated runoff enters waterways, notify downstream users of potentially contaminated waters. Contact your Department of Environmental Protection or regional office of the federal EPA for specific recommendations. If employees are expected to clean up spills, they must be trained and equipped. OSHA 1910.120 may be applicable.

10.Stability and reactivity
10.1 Reactivity
no data available
10.2 Chemical stability
Stable to heat, acids and alkali.
10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactions
Dust explosion possible if in powder or granular form, mixed with air.An amine and amide. Acts as a weak base in solution. Amines are chemical bases. They neutralize acids to form salts plus water. These acid-base reactions are exothermic. The amount of heat that is evolved per mole of amine in a neutralization is largely independent of the strength of the amine as a base. Amines may be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is generated by amines in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides. Organic amides/imides react with azo and diazo compounds to generate toxic gases. Flammable gases are formed by the reaction of organic amides/imides with strong reducing agents. Amides are very weak bases (weaker than water). Imides are less basic yet and in fact react with strong bases to form salts. That is, they can react as acids. Mixing amides with dehydrating agents such as P2O5 or SOCl2 generates the corresponding nitrile. The combustion of these compounds generates mixed oxides of nitrogen (NOx).

12.2 Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: Nicotinamide was determined to be readily biodegradable in an aerobic screening test recommended by the Department of Environment, Standing Committee of Analysts, UK(1).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for nicotinamide(SRC), using a log Kow of -0.37(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
12.4 Mobility in soil
The Koc of nicotinamide is estimated as 15(SRC), using a log Kow of -0.37(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that nicotinamide is expected to have very high mobility in soil.
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.
