no data available
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR if necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on the left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. Poisons A and B

SECTION 12: Ecological information
Toxicity
- Toxicity to fish: LC50 - Cyprinus carpio - > 0.048 mg/L - 96 h.
- Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: EC50 - Daphnia magna - > 0.072 mg/L - 48 h.
- Toxicity to algae: NOEC - Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata (previous names: Raphidocelis subcapitata, Selenastrum capricornutum) - 0.04 mg/L - 72 h.
- Toxicity to microorganisms: EC50 - activated sludge of a predominantly domestic sewage - > 1 000 mg/L - 3 h.
Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: 2,4,6-Tris(1,1-dimethylethyl)phenol, present at 100 mg/L, reached 0% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test(1).
Bioaccumulative potential
BCF values of 4,830-16,000 and 4,320-23,200 were measured in carp (Cyprinus carpio) exposed to 10 and 1 ppb, respectively, of 2,4,6-tris(1,1-dimethylethyl)phenol over an 8-week period(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is very high(SRC).
Mobility in soil
The Koc of 2,4,6-tris(1,1-dimethylethyl)phenol is estimated as 63,000(SRC), using a log Kow of 6.06(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 2,4,6-tris(1,1-dimethylethyl)phenol is expected to be immobile in soil.
Other adverse effects
no data available
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
