BrandbekämpfungFires involving this compound can be controlled using a dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or Halon extinguisher. (NTP, 1992)
Erste HilfeEYES: First check the victim for contact lenses and remove if present. Flush victim's eyes with water or normal saline solution for 20 to 30 minutes while simultaneously calling a hospital or poison control center. Do not put any ointments, oils, or medication in the victim's eyes without specific instructions from a physician. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim after flushing eyes to a hospital even if no symptoms (such as redness or irritation) develop.
Freisetung ohne BrandSMALL SPILLS AND LEAKAGE: If a spill of this chemical occurs, FIRST REMOVE ALL SOURCES OF IGNITION, then you should dampen the solid spill material with acetone and transfer the dampened material to a suitable container. Use absorbent paper dampened with acetone to pick up any remaining material. Seal your contaminated clothing and the absorbent paper in a vapor-tight plastic bag for eventual disposal. Solvent wash all contaminated surfaces with acetone followed by washing with a soap and water solution. Do not reenter the contaminated area until the Safety Officer (or other responsible person) has verified that the area has been properly cleaned.
Preventive MeasuresSRP: At the time of review, criteria for land treatment or burial (sanitary landfill) disposal practices are subject to significant revision. Prior to implementing land disposal of waste residue (including waste sludge), consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices.
Protective Action Criteria (PAC)0.44 [mg/m3]4.9 [mg/m3]29 [mg/m3]
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)RECOMMENDED RESPIRATOR: Where the neat test chemical is weighed and diluted, wear a NIOSH-approved half face respirator equipped with an organic vapor/acid gas cartridge (specific for organic vapors, HCl, acid gas and SO2) with a dust/mist filter. (NTP, 1992)
UmweltverhaltenTERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 4,000(SRC), determined from an estimated log Kow of 4.11(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine is expected to have slight mobility in soil(SRC). The first pKa of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine is estimated as 4.2(SRC), using an estimation method based on perturbed molecular orbital theory and linear free energy (LFER) methods(4). This pKa indicates that 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine will partially exist in the protonated form under acidic conditions and cations have greater adsorption to soil than neutral molecules(SRC). Furthermore, 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine is an aromatic amine which may form covalent bonds with humic materials resulting in relatively immobile quinone-like complexes(5). Volatilization of the neutral species of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 7.7X10-11 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(6). The conjugate acid of 3,3-dimethylbenzidine will not volatilize since cations are non-volatile(SRC). 3,3',5,5'-Tetramethylbenzidine is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 5X10-7 mm Hg(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(7). No data on the biodegradation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine in soil were found(SRC), but a similar compound (3,3'-dimethylbenzidine) was reported to be resistant to biodegradation in the Japanese MITI test(8), suggesting biodegradation in soil will most likely occur slowly(SRC). Benzidine-based compounds such as 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine are rapidly oxidized by Fe(III) and several other cations which are frequently found in soils and clay minerals(9).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 4,000(SRC), determined from an estimated log Kow of 4.11(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). The first pKa of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine is estimated as 4.2(SRC), using an estimation method based on perturbed molecular orbital theory and linear free energy (LFER) methods(4). This pKa indicates that 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine will partially exist in the protonated form under acidic conditions and cations have greater adsorption to suspended solids and sediment than neutral molecules(SRC). Volatilization of the free base from water surfaces is not expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 7.7X10-11 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(5).

According to a classification scheme(6), an estimated BCF of 290(SRC), from its estimated log Kow(2) and a regression-derived equation(7), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC). No data on the biodegradation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine in natural waters were found(SRC), but a similar compound (3,3'-dimethylbenzidine) was reported to be resistant to biodegradation in the Japanese MITI test(8), suggesting biodegradation in water will most likely occur slowly(SRC). Benzidine-based compounds such as 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine are rapidly oxidized by Fe(III) and several other cations which are frequently found in environmental waters, complexes of fulvic acids and in clay minerals(9).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine, which has an estimated vapor pressure of 5X10-7 mm Hg at 25 °C(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(2), is expected to exist in both the vapor and particulate phases in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC)the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 5 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 7.6X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C (SRC) determined using a structure estimation method(3). Since 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine absorbs light greater than 290 nm(4), it may be susceptible to direct photolysis in the environment(SRC). Particulate-phase 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine may be removed from the air by wet and dry deposition(SRC).
