NO open flames. Powder, water spray, foam, carbon dioxide. EXPLOSION Above 78°C explosive vapour/air mixtures may be formed. Above 78°C use a closed system, ventilation. EXPOSURE PREVENT DISPERSION OF DUST!  •INHALATION Cough. Sore throat. See Notes. Local exhaust or breathing protection. Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention.  •SKIN Dry skin. Redness. Pain. Protective gloves. Protective clothing. Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap. Refer for medical attention.  •EYES Redness. Pain. Safety goggles, or eye protection in combination with breathing protection if powder. First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.  •INGESTION Abdominal pain. Diarrhoea. Headache. Dizziness. Vomiting. Weakness. Convulsions. Muscular spasms. Increased body temperature and sweating (see Notes). Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Wash hands before eating. Rinse mouth. Give a slurry of activated charcoal in water to drink. Refer for medical attention. SPILLAGE DISPOSAL STORAGE PACKAGING & LABELLING Sweep spilled substance into containers; if appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting. Carefully collect remainder, then remove to safe place. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. (Extra personal protection: P2 filter respirator for harmful particles). Provision to contain effluent from fire extinguishing. Separated from strong oxidants, food and feedstuffs. Do not transport with food and feedstuffs.

International Chemical Safety Cards 2,3,6-TRICHLOROPHENOL ICSC: 0590 I M P O R T A N T D A T A PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE: COLOURLESS CRYSTALS , WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR. PHYSICAL DANGERS: CHEMICAL DANGERS: The substance decomposes on heating, on contact with strong oxidants producing toxic and corrosive fumes of hydrogen chloride. The substance is a weak acid. 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 harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly when dispersed. EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance irritates the eyes, the skin and the respiratory tract. See Notes. EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis. See Notes. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Boiling point: 253°C Melting point: 58°C Solubility in water: none Flash point: 78°C Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 3.6 ENVIRONMENTAL DATA The substance is toxic to aquatic organisms. The substance may cause long-term effects in the aquatic environment. N O T E S No data are available on this isomer but a mixture of trichlorophenols may cause irritation of the skin, eyes and respiratory tract. These substances may cause acute metabolic effects resulting in damage in several organs notably CNS. Some technical products may contain highly toxic impurities including polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and -furans. Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is indicated. Insufficient data are available on the effect of this substance on human health, therefore utmost care must be taken. Also consult ICSC # 1122.
