Liquid formulations containing organic solvents may be flammable. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. In case of fire in the surroundings: use appropriate extinguishing media. EXPLOSION Risk of fire and explosion if formulations contain flammable/explosive solvents. EXPOSURE PREVENT DISPERSION OF DUST! STRICT HYGIENE! AVOID EXPOSURE OF ADOLESCENTS AND CHILDREN! IN ALL CASES CONSULT A DOCTOR!  •INHALATION Sweating. Pupillary constriction, muscle cramp, excessive salivation. Dizziness. Vomiting. Laboured breathing. Unconsciousness. Ventilation (not if powder), local exhaust, or breathing protection. Fresh air, rest. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer for medical attention. See Notes.  •SKIN Protective gloves. Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.  •EYES Safety spectacles, or eye protection in combination with breathing protection. First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.  •INGESTION Abdominal cramps. Diarrhoea. Headache. Nausea. Vomiting. Weakness. (Further see Inhalation). Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Wash hands before eating. Give a slurry of activated charcoal in water to drink. Refer for medical attention. See Notes. 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. Personal protection: self-contained breathing apparatus. Provision to contain effluent from fire extinguishing. Separated from food and feedstuffs . Keep in a well-ventilated room. Do not transport with food and feedstuffs. Marine pollutant.

International Chemical Safety Cards CARBOFURAN ICSC: 0122 I M P O R T A N T D A T A PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE: COLOURLESS CRYSTALS. PHYSICAL DANGERS: CHEMICAL DANGERS: The substance decomposes on heating producing toxic fumes including nitrogen oxides . OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: TLV: 0.1 mg/m³; A4; BEI issued; (ACGIH 2004). MAK not established. OSHA PEL: none NIOSH REL: TWA 0.1 mg/m3 NIOSH IDLH: No data ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation and by ingestion. INHALATION RISK: Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly on spraying or when dispersed, especially if powdered. EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance may cause effects on the nervous system , resulting in convulsions and respiratory depression . Cholinesterase inhibitor. The effects may be delayed. Exposure may result in death. Medical observation is indicated. EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: Cholinesterase inhibitor; cumulative effect is possible: see acute hazards/symptoms. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Decomposes below boiling point at 150°C Melting point: 153°C Density: 1.2 g/cm3 Solubility in water, g/100 ml at 25°C: 0.07 Vapour pressure, Pa at 33°C: 0.0027 Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 2.32 ENVIRONMENTAL DATA The substance is very toxic to aquatic organisms. This substance may be hazardous to the environment; special attention should be given to soil organisms, honey bees and birds. 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 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. If the substance is formulated with solvents also consult the ICSCs of these materials. Transport Emergency Card: TEC (R)-61GT7-I ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ICSC: 0122 CARBOFURAN (C) IPCS, CEC, 1994
