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 151 [Substances - Toxic (Non-combustible)]: Highly toxic, may be fatal if inhaled, swallowed or absorbed through skin. Avoid any skin contact. Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution. (ERG, 2016)
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Treatments for oral, percutaneous, or inhalation toxicity are listed for molinate.
SECTION 5: Firefighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
Excerpt from ERG Guide 151 [Substances - Toxic (Non-combustible)]: SMALL FIRE: Dry chemical, CO2 or water spray. LARGE FIRE: Water spray, fog or regular foam. Move containers from fire area if you can do it without risk. Dike fire-control water for later disposal; do not scatter the material. Use water spray or fog; do not use straight streams. FIRE INVOLVING TANKS OR CAR/TRAILER LOADS: Fight fire from maximum distance or use unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles. Do not get water inside containers. 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. For massive fire, use unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles; if this is impossible, withdraw from area and let fire burn. (ERG, 2016)
Specific hazards arising from the chemical
Excerpt from ERG Guide 151 [Substances - Toxic (Non-combustible)]: Non-combustible, substance itself does not burn but may decompose upon heating to produce corrosive and/or toxic fumes. Containers may explode when heated. Runoff may pollute waterways. (ERG, 2016)
Special protective actions for fire-fighters
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.

SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Water soluble. Thio and dithiocarbamates slowly decompose in aqueous solution to form carbon disulfide and methylamine or other amines. Such decompositions are accelerated by acids.
Chemical stability
Stable at 100 deg c for 16 hours
Possibility of hazardous reactions
FIRE POINT= 143 DEG C.MOLINATE is a thiocarbamate. Flammable gases are generated by the combination of thiocarbamates and dithiocarbamates with aldehydes, nitrides, and hydrides. Thiocarbamates and dithiocarbamates are incompatible with acids, peroxides, and acid halides.
Conditions to avoid

Incompatible materials
no data available
Hazardous decomposition products
When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of /nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides/.

Persistence and degradability
Micrococcus sp. 22r degraded Ordram via S-ethyl-1-(2-hydroxy)-hexa-methyleniminothiocarbamate, 1-hexamethyleniminothiocarbamic acid, S-ethyl-(1,2-2-hydroxy)-hexamethyleniminothiocarbamate, S-ethyl-(2-oxo)-1-hexamethyleniminothiocarbamate. With Bacillus sp. 24 and Nocardia sp. 119, Ordram gave rise to oxo- and dioxo metabolites. Oxidation of the ethyl group to a carboxyl group was observed. There was no hydrolysis of the ethyl group.
Bioaccumulative potential
Using a continuous-flow water system and a 14 day exposure period, a molinate BCF of 26 was measured in a freshwater fish (topmouth gudgeon)(1). Avg BCFs of 48 and 18 were calculated for pale chub and ayu sweetfish, respectively, collected from Japanese rivers by measuring the water concn and the fish concn(2). BCF values of 30 in Japanese carp, 25.2 for striped bass, 19.7 for white sturgeon, 30.5 in common carp have been reported(3). Average BCFs from fish samples, pale chub and ayu sweetfish, from seven rivers flowing into Lake Biwa from April 1995 to March 1996 were 16 and 13, respectively(4). According to a classification scheme(5), these BCF values suggest bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low to moderate.
Mobility in soil
Koc values of 80 and 89 were measured for molinate in two Japanese soils (respective organic carbon contents of 1.35 and 4.24%)(1). The US Dept of Agric's Pesticide Properties Database reports a molinate Koc value of 190(2). According to a classification scheme(3), these measured Koc values suggest that molinate is expected to have high mobility in soil. Molinate readily leaches in mineral soils, slightly more than EPTC(7). In lysimeter leaching studies using a mineral alluvial soil and a humic volcanic ash soil, molinate leached more rapidly than simetryne, thiobencarb and chlornitrofen(4). In soil column leaching studies, molinate leached more readily than other thiocarbamate herbicides (EPTC, vernolate, pebulate, R-2063)(5); very little of the molinate applied to the surface remained in the upper 3 inches of soil columns(5). Molinate was observed to have high mobility in a chernozem soil(6).
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.
