Transcription

1 Technical information GPS Safety Summary Substance name CAS-No General Statement is an olefinic hydrocarbon consisting of branched C12 olefin isomers. It is a low molecular weight liquid of moderate volatility. is used as an intermediate for the production of other chemicals or as a fuel component. Because it is used as an intermediate in chemical industry or burnt as a fuel with limited concentration in the fuel exposure is very limited.. Chemical identity Name Brand names Chemical name (IUPAC) Isododecene CAS number Molecular formula Chemical characterization C12H24 Branched C12 olefin mixture Uses and application It is used as an intermediate for the production of other chemicals or as a fuel component.

2 Physical/chemical properies is a low molecular weight liquid of moderate volatility. The liquid is lighter than water, only very slightly soluble in water, while vapors are heavier than air. Property Value Physical state Liquid Color Colorless Odor Odorless Density 0,77 g/cm3 (20 C) Vapour heavier than air Melting / boiling point <-150 C / C (1013 hpa) Flammability highly flammable liquid F flammability limits 0.3% (V) - 7.5% (V) Explosive Properties No explosive properties Self-ignition temperature 210 C Vapor pressure 9 hpa (20 C) Molecular weight 168 g/mol Water solubility <2.4 mg/l Flash point 71 C Method: closed cup Octanol-water partition coefficient log Pow: Health effects Effect Assessment Acute toxicity (oral, dermal and inhalation) Eye / Skin irritation Sensitization Toxicity after repeated exposure Genotoxicity/mutagenicity Carcinogenicity Toxicity for reproduction Low acute toxicity. Inhalation of high vapor concentrations can cause CNS-depression and narcosis. Harmful: May cause lung damage if swallowed. Moderately irritating to the skin but not eye irritating. Not considered to be sensitizing. Target organ effects specific to rodents are not relevant to human health Not mutagenic / genotoxic No data but based on chemical structure not considered to be a human cancer concern No adverse effects on fertility and not AG GPS Safety Summary November 2011 Version 1 page 2/5

3 selectively toxic to the fetus (derived from test results with similar substances) Environmental effects Effect Assessment Aquatic toxicity Not toxic to water organisms in the range of water solubility. Fate and Behavior Biodegradation Bioaccumulation potential PBT / vpvb conclusion Biodegradable Bioaccumulation possible Neither considered to be PBT nor vpvb Photochemical degradation takes place. Exposure Human health Because the substance is handled in closed systems under controlled conditions and is contained in public used products only in minor concentrations (e.g. in fuel), no relevant exposure is to be expected. Environment Because the substance is handled in closed systems under controlled conditions and is contained in public used products only in minor concentrations (e.g. in fuel), no relevant exposure is to be expected. Risk management recommendations Industry use, production and formulation Assumes a good basic standard of occupational hygiene is implemented Substance is handled in closed systems under controlled conditions only. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not inhale vapor, aerosols, mist. Ensure adequate ventilation. Take precautionary measures against static charges, keep away from sources of ignition. Wear personal protective equipment Chemical-resistant protective gloves (EN 374) Glove material nitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR) gloves Protective goggles recommended No direct release to soil and surface water.

4 Consumer use Because of low concentration in public used products (e.g. in fuel) the usual risk management measures when handling these (flammable) products are sufficient.
