SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Decomposes on heating. This produces toxic and corrosive fumes including hydrogen bromide, hydrogen chloride and hydrogen fluoride. Decomposes under the influence of light.
Chemical stability
Sensitive to light, may be stabilized with 0.01% thymol.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Non-flammableThe vapour is heavier than air.HALOTHANE is sensitive to exposure to light. Incompatible with oxidizing materials. Tarnishes or corrodes most metals, with the exception of chromium, nickel and titanium. When moisture is present, it attacks aluminum, brass and lead, but not copper. Contact causes rubber and some plastics to deteriorate rapidly. (NTP, 1992)
Conditions to avoid
no data available
Incompatible materials
Some plastics and rubber are soluble in halothane and will deteriorate rapidly in contact with halothane vapor or liquid.
Hazardous decomposition products
Halothane is decomposed by sunlight and should be stored in dark colored bottles.

Toxicity
- Toxicity to fish: no data available
- Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: no data available
- Toxicity to algae: no data available
- Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available
Persistence and degradability
no data available
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 12 was calculated for 2-bromo-2-chloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane(SRC), using a measured log Kow of 2.3(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 2-bromo-2-chloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane is estimated as 425(SRC), using a measured log Kow of 2.3(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 2-bromo-2-chloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane is expected to have moderate mobility in soil(SRC).
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.
