Important Data
|
Physical State; Appearance:
COLOURLESS OR WHITE CRYSTALS
, WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR.
Physical Dangers:
Chemical Dangers:
The substance decomposes
on heating
producing toxic fumes of hydrogen chloride, nitrogen oxides, phosphorous oxides and sulfur oxides.
Occupational Exposure Limits:
TLV not established.
|
Routes of Exposure:
The substance can be absorbed into the body
by inhalation of its aerosol,
through the skin and
by ingestion.
Inhalation Risk:
Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a nuisance-causing concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly on spraying or when dispersed, especially if powdered.
Effects of Short-Term Exposure:
The substance
irritates the eyes, the skin and the respiratory tract.
Weak
cholinesterase inhibitor.
Medical observation is indicated.
Effects of Long-Term or Repeated Exposure:
|
|
