T+ symbol R: 27/28 S: 1/2-28-36/37-45 UN Hazard Class: 6.1 UN Packing Group: I Signal: Danger Skull-Health haz Fatal if swallowed Causes damage to nervous system DEMETON-S ICSC: 0864 Important Data Physical State; Appearance: COLOURLESS OILY LIQUID. Physical Dangers: Chemical Dangers: The substance decomposes on heating, producing toxic and corrosive fumes including phosphorus oxides and sulfur oxides Occupational Exposure Limits: TLV not established. MAK not established. Routes of Exposure: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its aerosol, through the skin, by ingestion. Inhalation Risk: No indication can be given about the rate in which a harmful concentration in the air is reached on evaporation of this substance at 20°C. Effects of Short-Term Exposure: The substance may cause effects on the central nervous system , resulting in convulsions and respiratory depression . Cholinesterase inhibition. Exposure may result in death. The effects may be delayed. Medical observation is indicated. See Notes. Effects of Long-Term or Repeated Exposure: Physical Properties Boiling point at 0.1kPa: 128°C Relative density (water = 1): 1.13 Solubility in water, g/100 ml at 20°C: 0.2 Vapour pressure, Pa at 20°C: 0.035 Relative vapour density (air = 1): 8.92 Environmental Data This substance may be hazardous to the environment; special attention should be given to fish and honey bees. This substance does enter the environment under normal use. Great care, however, should be given to avoid any additional release, e.g. through inappropriate disposal. N O T E S Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is indicated. Specific treatment is necessary in case of poisoning with this substance; the appropriate means with instructions must be available. Carrier solvents used in commercial formulations may change physical and toxicological properties. Do NOT take working clothes home.
