Toxic by inhalation and dermal contact, exposure to this liquid may occur from its use as a solvent and paint thinner, and in the manufacture of dyes, perfumes, resins, pharmaceuticals, and trimellitic anhydride. Effects from exposure may include headache, fatigue, nausea, irritation of the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes, central nervous system depression, asthmatic bronchitis, chemical pneumonitis, or pulmonary edema. If contact should occur, irrigate exposed eyes with copious amounts of tepid water for at least 15 minutes, and wash exposed skin thoroughly with soap and water. While this substance must be moderately heated before ignition will occur (autoignition temperature: 932 °F), caution should be taken to prevent its heavier-than-air vapor from accumulating to flammable concentrations (flammable limits by volume: 0.9% to 6.4%). Water spray may be used to extinguish fires involving this substance. |

| Brandbekämpfungsverfahren | This chemical is a flammable liquid. Poisonous gases are produced in fire. Small fires: dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray, or alcohol-resistant foam. Large fires: water spray, fog, or alcohol foam. Move container from fire if you can do so without risk. Spray cooling water on containers that are exposed to flames until well after fire is out. For massive fire in cargo area, use unmanned hose holder or monitoring nozzlesif this is impossible, withdraw from area and let fire burn. Isolate for one-half mile in all directions if tank car or truck is involved in fire. Vapors are heavier than air and will collect in low areas. Vapors may travel long distances to ignition sources and flashback. Vapors in confined areas may explode when exposed to fire. Containers may explode in fire. Storage containers and parts of containers may rocket great distances, in many directions. If material or contaminated runoff enters waterways, notify downstream users of potentially contaminated waters. Notify local health and fire officials and pollution control agencies. From a secure, explosion-proof location, use water spray to cool exposed containers. If cooling streams are ineffective (venting sound increases in volume and pitch, tank discolors, or shows any signs of deforming), withdraw immediately to a secure position. If employees are expected to fight fires, they must be trained and equipped in OSHA 1910.156. /Trimethyl benzenes/ |
| Lagerbedingungen | Prior to working with this chemical you should be trained on its proper handling and storage. Before entering a confined space where this chemical may be present, check to make sure that an explosive concentration does not exist. Trimethylbenzene must be stored to avoid contact with oxidizers (such as perchlorates, peroxides, permanganates, chlorates, and nitrates), and strong oxidizers (such as chlorine, bromine, and fluorine) since violent reactions occur. Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat. Sources of ignition such as smoking and open flames are prohibited where this chemical is used, handled, or stored in a manner that could create a potential fire or explosion hazard. Metal containers involving the transfer of 5 gallons or more of this chemical should be grounded and bonded. Drums must be equipped with self-closing valves, pressure vacuum bungs, and flame arresters. Use only nonsparking tools and equipment, especially when opening and closing containers of this chemical. /Trimethyl benzenes/STORAGE TANKS SHOULD BE MOUNDED TO CONFINE ESCAPING LIQUID & ESCAPE FROM PROCESS VESSELS SHOULD BE CONTROLLED IN SIMILAR MANNER BY SILLS @ DOORWAYS, DESIGN OF FLOORS, ETC. /TRIMETHYLBENZENES/ |
| Reinigungsverfahren | Evacuate and restrict persons not wearing protective equipment from area of spill or leak until cleanup is complete. Remove all ignition sources. Establish forced ventilation to keep levels below explosive limit. Absorb liquids in vermiculite, dry sand, earth, peat, carbon, or similar material and deposit in sealed containers. Keep this chemical out of a confined space ... because of the possibility of an explosion ... It may be necessary to contain and dispose of this chemical as a hazardous waste. If material or contaminated runoff enters waterways, notify downstream users of potentially contaminated waters. Contact your Department of Environmental Protection or your regional office of the federal EPA for specific recommendations. If employees are required to clean up spills, they must be properly trained and equipped. OSHA 1910.120(q) may be applicable. /Trimethyl benzenes/ |

| Entsorgungsverfahren | SRP: The most favorable course of action is to use an alternative chemical product with less inherent propensity for occupational exposure or environmental contamination. Recycle any unused portion of the material for its approved use or return it to the manufacturer or supplier. Ultimate disposal of the chemical must consider: the material's impact on air qualitypotential migration in soil or watereffects on animal, aquatic, and plant lifeand conformance with environmental and public health regulations.Incineration /SRP: with appropriate emission controls/. /Trimethyl benzenes/ |
| Verschüttetes entsorgen | Personal protection: filter respirator for organic gases and vapours adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations. Do NOT wash away into sewer. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. |
| Preventive Measures | SRP: The scientific literature for the use of contact lenses in industry is conflicting. The benefit or detrimental effects of wearing contact lenses depend not only upon the substance, but also on factors including the form of the substance, characteristics and duration of the exposure, the uses of other eye protection equipment, and the hygiene of the lenses. However, there may be individual substances whose irritating or corrosive properties are such that the wearing of contact lenses would be harmful to the eye. In those specific cases, contact lenses should not be worn. In any event, the usual eye protection equipment should be worn even when contact lenses are in place.The worker should immediately wash the skin when it becomes contaminated.Work clothing that becomes wet or significantly contaminated should be removed and replaced.In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. |
| Körperbelastung | 6 of 46 human adipose tissue samples contained unreported concentrations of 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene(1). |
| Wechselwirkungen | ... The toxicokinetics of 124TMB was studied in nine male, healthy volunteers exposed to solvent vapors in an exposure chamber for 2 hr during a work load of 50 W. The subjects were exposed to 2 ppm (11 mg/cu m) of 124TMB during exposure to 300 mg/cu m of white spirit. The 124TMB isomer was analysed in blood, urine and exhaled air by gas chromatography. The DMHA metabolites of all three TMB isomers were analysed in urine by high-performance liquid chromatography. The results were compared with previously published exposures to 2 and 25 ppm (120 mg/cu m) of 124TMB vapor alone. ... Blood levels of 124TMB and excretion rates of 3,4-DMHA in urine were markedly elevated both during and after exposure to white spirit compared to the same exposure level of 124TMB alone. ... It appears that components in white spirit interfere with the metabolic elimination of 124TMB. This should be considered in biological exposure monitoring as well as in risk assessment. |

| Umweltverhalten | TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a recommended classification scheme(1), a Koc value of 537 measured in soil(2), indicates that 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene is expected to have low mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene is expected to be important from moist soil surfaces(SRC) given a measured Henry's Law constant of 6.16X10-3 atm-cu m/mole(3) and from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based on a measured vapor pressure of 2.1 mm Hg at 25 °C(4). Complete removal of 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene from sterile sandy loam soil samples contaminated with jet fuel was reported within 5 days, probably due to evaporation(5). Non-volatilized 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene may be subject to biodegradation(SRC). 1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene was degraded within 7 days during a study of the aerobic microbial degradation of components of gas oil in aqueous solutionthis was demonstrated while contaminated water percolated through an unsaturated soil column(6).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a recommended classification scheme(1), a Koc value of 537 measured in soil(2), indicates that 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment in water(SRC). 1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene is expected to volatilize from water surfaces(3) based on a measured Henry's Law constant of 6.16X10-3 atm-cu m/mole(4). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are approximately 3 hours and 4 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(5), BCF values of 31 to 275(6), measured in fish, suggest that bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate to high(SRC). Biodegradation under aerobic conditions may be an important fate process for this compound in water although high concentrations of 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene may be toxic to the indigenous microbial population(6,7).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene, which has a measured vapor pressure of 2.10 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), will exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene 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 about 12 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 3.25X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3). 1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene also reacts with nitrate radicals in the atmosphere(4)the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated as 6-30 days(SRC), calculated from rate constants in the range of 5.4X10-16 to 2.70X10-15 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(4). 1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(5) and therefore is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC). |
