0098 AMITRAZ
IMPORTANT DATA
Physical State; Appearance Routes of exposure
COLOURLESS CRYSTALS. The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation,
through the skin and by ingestion.
Chemical dangers
Inhalation risk
The substance decomposes on burning producing toxic fumes
including nitrogen oxides. Evaporation at 20/C is negligible; a harmful concentration of
airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly on spraying
Occupational exposure limits or when dispersed, especially if powdered.
TLV not established.
Effects of short-term exposure
The substance may cause effects on the central nervous system.
Effects of long-term or repeated exposure
The substance may have effects on the central nervous system
and liver.
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
Melting point: 86/C Solubility in water: none
Relative density (water = 1): 1.1 Vapour pressure, Pa at 20/C: negligible
ENVIRONMENTAL DATA
This substance may be hazardous to the environment; special attention should be given to fish.
NOTES
If the pesticide is present under the form of a formulation containing hydrocarbon solvents, vomiting may not be induced.
Insufficient data are available on the effect of this substance on human health, therefore utmost care must be taken.
Carrier solvents used in commercial formulations may change physical and toxicological properties.
If the substance is formulated with solvents also consult the ICSCs of these materials.
