Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
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 as necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on 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. Organic acids and related compounds

SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
The substance is a weak acid.
Chemical stability
On exposure to air, especially when impure, it oxidizes & acquires yellow to brown color & rancid odor
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Combustible
Conditions to avoid
no data available
Incompatible materials
The improved preparation of 1,4-octadecanolactone involves heating oleic acid (or other C18 acids) with 70% perchloric acid to 115 deg C. This is considered to be a potentially dangerous method.
Hazardous decomposition products
When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.

Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: A 47 and 52 theoretical %BOD for oleic acid (initial concn of 1,000 ppm) was measured over a period of 5 days in screening tests at 20 deg C using sewage inoculum(1). A biodegradation half-life of 0.66 days was measured for oleic acid at an initial concn of 100 ppm with an aerobic Warburg respirometer at 25 deg C using activated sludge inocula(2). In another screening study a first order rate constant was measured to be 0.12/hr for oleic acid (initial concn of 100 ppm) which corresponds to a biodegradation half-life of 0.2 days(3). Oleic acid at initial concns of 1, 10, 1, and 10 ppm exhibited 90, 24, 97, and 28 theoretical %BOD, respectively, over incubation periods of 5, 5, 10, and 10 days, respectively, in an aerobic screening study using sewage inoculum(4). A 68 theoretical %BOD (initial concn of 100 ppm) was measured over a period of 5 days in a screening test at 20 deg C using sewage inoculum(5). A 39 theoretical %BOD for oleic acid (initial concn not given) was measured over a period of 5 days in a screening test at 20 deg C using sewage inoculum(6). After a 16 day acclimation time, a 63.5 theoretical %BOD was measured for oleic acid (initial concn not given) over a period of 5 days in a screening test at 20 deg C using activated sludge inocula(7). A 57.2 theoretical %BOD was measured for oleic acid (initial concn of 500 ppm) over a period of 5 days in an aerobic screening test at 20 deg C using activated sludge inoculum(8).
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 10 was calculated in fish for oleic acid(SRC), using a log Kow of 7.64(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
Mobility in soil
The Koc of undissociated oleic acid is estimated as 340,000(SRC), using a log Kow of 7.64(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that oleic acid is expected to be immobile in soil. The pKa of oleic acid is 5.02(4), indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely in anion form in the environment and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(5).
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.
