Liquid formulations containing organic solvents may be flammable. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. NO open flames. Powder, water spray, foam, carbon dioxide. EXPLOSION EXPOSURE PREVENT DISPERSION OF DUST! AVOID EXPOSURE OF ADOLESCENTS AND CHILDREN!  •INHALATION Local exhaust or breathing protection. Fresh air, rest.  •SKIN Protective gloves. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.  •EYES Safety spectacles. First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.  •INGESTION Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Wash hands before eating. Rinse mouth. Rest. Refer for medical attention. SPILLAGE DISPOSAL STORAGE PACKAGING & LABELLING Do NOT wash away into sewer. Sweep spilled substance into containers; if appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting. Carefully collect remainder, then remove to safe place. (Extra personal protection: self-contained breathing apparatus). Provision to contain effluent from fire extinguishing. Separated from food and feedstuffs. Do not transport with food and feedstuffs.

International Chemical Safety Cards LINURON ICSC: 1300 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 hydrogen chloride and nitrogen oxides. OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: TLV not established. ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its aerosol and by ingestion. INHALATION RISK: Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a nuisance-causing concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly on spraying or when dispersed, especially if powdered. EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: The substance may have effects on the blood , resulting in anaemia. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Melting point: 93-94°C Solubility in water: none (< 0.1g/100ml) Vapour pressure, Pa at 24°C: 0.002 Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 3.2 ENVIRONMENTAL DATA The substance is toxic to aquatic organisms. This substance may be hazardous to the environment; special attention should be given to algae and water plants. Avoid release to the environment in circumstances different to normal use. N O T E S If the substance is formulated with solvent(s) also consult the card(s) (ICSC) of the solvent(s). Carrier solvents used in commercial formulations may change physical and toxicological properties. Afalon, Garnitan, Linex, Linorox, Linurex, Lorex, Sarclex, and Scarclex are trade names.
