CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
| Physical Description | Aldicarb appears as white crystals with a slightly sulfurous odor. Commercial formulations are granular Used as an insecticide, acaricide, and nematocide. (EPA, 1998) |
|---|---|
| Color/Form | Crystals from isopropyl ether |
| Odor | Slightly sulfurous odor |
| Boiling Point | Decomposes (NTP, 1992) |
| Melting Point | 210 to 214 °F (EPA, 1998) |
| Solubility | 0.1 to 1.0 mg/mL at 72 °F (NTP, 1992) |
| Density | 1.195 at 77 °F (EPA, 1998) - Denser than water; will sink |
| Vapor Pressure | Less than 0.5 at 68F (EPA, 1998) |
| LogP | log Kow = 1.13 |
| Stability/Shelf Life | Aldicarb is stable under normal storage conditions and in acidic media but decomposes rapidly in alkaline media and at temperatures above 100 °C. |
| Decomposition | When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of /nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides/. |
| Corrosivity | Non-corrosive to common metals and plastics |
| Ionization Efficiency | Positive |
| Other Experimental Properties | Decomposes above 100 °C |
| Chemical Classes | Pesticides -> Carbamate Insecticides |
