SECTION 4: First aid measures
Description of necessary first-aid measures
Move the victim into fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration and consult a doctor immediately. Do not use mouth to mouth resuscitation if the victim ingested or inhaled the chemical.
Take off contaminated clothing immediately. Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a doctor.
Rinse with pure water for at least 15 minutes. Consult a doctor.
Rinse mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a doctor or Poison Control Center immediately.
Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
Excerpt from ERG Guide 171 [Substances (Low to Moderate Hazard)]: Inhalation of material may be harmful. Contact may cause burns to skin and eyes. Inhalation of Asbestos dust may have a damaging effect on the lungs. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Some liquids produce vapors that may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control may cause pollution. (ERG, 2016)
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 5: Firefighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
Excerpt from ERG Guide 171 [Substances (Low to Moderate Hazard)]: SMALL FIRE: Dry chemical, CO2, water spray or regular foam. LARGE FIRE: Water spray, fog or regular foam. Do not scatter spilled material with high-pressure water streams. Move containers from fire area if you can do it without risk. Dike fire-control water for later disposal. FIRE INVOLVING TANKS: Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety devices or discoloration of tank. ALWAYS stay away from tanks engulfed in fire. (ERG, 2016)

Possibility of hazardous reactions
FENOXYCARB is a carbamate ester. Carbamates are chemically similar to, but more reactive than amides. Like amides they form polymers such as polyurethane resins. Carbamates are incompatible with strong acids and bases, and especially incompatible with strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is produced by the combination of active metals or nitrides with carbamates. Strongly oxidizing acids, peroxides, and hydroperoxides are incompatible with carbamates.

Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: It has been postulated that the bioavailability of diaryl ether pesticides such as fenoxycarb decreases under the influence of sunlight, as the production of polymeric material and formation of bound residues from activated derivatives will occur(1). Also possibly leading to a reduced bioavailability of this class is the photodecarboxylation of certain pyrethroids(1). Fenoxycarb tends to absorb to organic matter which largely limits its persistence in water as well as in the field(2). When sterilized tap water, filtered and unfiltered sewage water were spiked with fenoxycarb at a concentration of 0.02 mg/L and incubated in the absence of light, only 15% loss of fenoxycarb was observed from tap water in 4 days. Conversely, no fenoxycarb was detected (detection limit <0.0004 mg/L) in 4 days in filtered sewage and in 3 days in unfiltered sewage(2). A 40% loss was observed in 9 days when tap water containing 0.02 mg/L fenoxycarb was incubated in the dark at 24 deg C(2).
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 400 was calculated in fish for fenoxycarb(SRC), using a log Kow of 4.30(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). A BCF of 95 has been reported(3). According to a classification scheme(4), these BCF values suggest the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate to high(SRC), provided the compound is not metabolized by the organism(SRC). Using a flow-through system, bluegill sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus) were continuously exposed to 1 mg/L of fenoxycarb for a maximum period of 4 days. Maximum bioconcentration factors of 21, 7 and 27 were observed in whole body, edible tissue and viscera, respectively(5).
Mobility in soil
The Koc of fenoxycarb is estimated as 5,200(SRC), using a log Kow of 4.30(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that fenoxycarb is expected to be immobile in soil.
Other adverse effects

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.
