Section 4 - First Aid Measures
|
Eyes:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid imme
diately.
Skin:
Get medical aid immediately. Immediately flush skin with plenty of
water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing
and shoes.
Ingestion:
POISON material. If swallowed, get medical aid immediately. Only
induce vomiting if directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Inhalation:
Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh
air immediately. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Do not use
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation if victim ingested or inhaled the
substance; induce artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket
mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory
medical device.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively.

The product is chemically identically to the natural amino acid
L-Serine and can therefore be degraded microbiologically.
Environmental:
An estimated BCF value of 0.33 was calculated for 1,3-benzenediamine,
using an estimated log Kow of -0.33 and a recommended
regression-derived equation. BCF values of 1.3 to 4.6 and <1.6 to 24
were measured for 1,3-benzenediamine in carp at 2 and 0.2 mg/l,
respectively. According to a classification scheme, these BCF values
suggest that bioconcentration in acquatic organisms is low.
Physical:
No information found.
Other:
The Koc of 1,3-benzenediamine is estimated as approximately 16, using
a measured log Kow of -0.33 and a regression-derived equation.
According to a recommended classification scheme, this estimated Koc
value suggests that 1,3-benzenediamine is expected to have very high
mobility in soil. However, anilines are expected to bind strongly to
humus or organic matter in soils due to the high reactivity of the
aromatic amino group; therefore, mobility may be much lower in some
soils.
Section 13 - Disposal Considerations
|
Chemical waste generators must determine whether a discarded chemical is classified
as a hazardous waste.
US EPA guidelines for the classification determination are listed in 40 CFR Parts 261.3.
