Important Data
|
Physical State; Appearance:
WAXY WHITE SOLID IN VARIOUS FORMS.
Physical Dangers:
Dust explosion possible if in powder or granular form, mixed with air.
Chemical Dangers:
The substance decomposes at 260°C
on heating and
on burning
producing toxic fumes (nitrogen oxides).
Reacts with strong oxidants.
Occupational Exposure Limits:
TLV not established.
MAK not established.
|
Routes of Exposure:
The substance can be absorbed into the body
by inhalation of dust.
Inhalation Risk:
Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a nuisance-causing concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly if powdered.
Effects of Short-Term Exposure:
The substance slightly
irritates
the eyes,
the skin and
the respiratory tract.
Effects of Long-Term or Repeated Exposure:
|
|
Physical
Properties
|
Decomposes below boiling point at 260°C
Melting point: 135-146°C
Relative density (water = 1): 0.97
|
Solubility in water: none
Flash point: 280°C o.c.
