Special ReportsOrganization for the Prohibition of Chemical WeaponsConvention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and Their Destruction. The Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) is an international treaty which bans the development, production, stockpiling, and transfer or use of chemical weapons. The Convention mandates the destruction and prohibition of chemical weapons and related facilities and provides for restrictions on international trade in toxic chemicals and precursors.[Available from, as of November 12, 2008: http://www.opcw.org]
Reactivity ProfileMETHYLDIETHANOLAMINE is an aminoalcohol. Amines are chemical bases. They neutralize acids to form salts plus water. These acid-base reactions are exothermic. The amount of heat that is evolved per mole of amine in a neutralization is largely independent of the strength of the amine as a base. Amines may be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is generated by amines in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides. This compound may react with oxidizing materials. (NTP, 1992)
Chemical DangersDecomposes on heating. This produces toxic fumes. The solution in water is a medium strong base. Reacts violently with acids and oxidants.
Physical DangersThe vapour is heavier than air.
Air and Water ReactionsVery water soluble (NTP, 1992).

Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique (without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands.SRP: The scientific literature for the use of contact lenses by industrial workers is inconsistent. The benefits 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.
UmweltverhaltenTERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 1(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that N-methyldiethanolamine is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). The pKa of N-methyldiethanolamine is 8.52(3), indicating that this compound will exist partially in the cation form in the environment and cations generally adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(4). Volatilization of the cation from moist soil is not expected because cations do not volatilize(SRC). Volatilization of neutral N-methyldiethanolamine from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 3.1X10-11 atm-cu m/mole(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure, 2.0X10-4 mm Hg(5), and assigned value for water solubility of 1X10+6 mg/L (miscible)(6). N-Methyldiethanolamine is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(5). N-Methyldiethanolamine did not biodegrade after 28 days in activated sludge, but degraded >96% after 40 days in a continuous-flow experiment where the inoculum had time to acclimate(7). These data indicate that biodegradation of N-methyldiethanolamine in soil may only be important under acclimated conditions(7).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 1(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that N-methyldiethanolamine is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). A pKa of 8.52(3) indicates N-methyldiethanolamine will exist partially in the cation form at pH values of 5 to 9 and, therefore, volatilization of the cation from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC). Volatilization of neutral N-methyldiethanolamine from water surfaces is not expected(4) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 3.1X10-11 atm-cu m/mole(SRC) derived from its vapor pressure, 2.0X10-4 mm Hg(5), and assigned value for water solubility of 1X10+6 mg/L (miscible)(6). N-Methyldiethanolamine is not expected to undergo hydrolysis in the environment due to the lack of functional groups that hydrolyze under environmental conditions(4). According to a classification scheme(7), an estimated BCF of 3(SRC), from an estimated log Kow of -1.50(2) and a regression-derived equation(2), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. N-Methyldiethanolamine did not biodegrade after 28 days in activated sludge, but degraded >96% after 40 days in a continuous-flow experiment where the inoculum had time to acclimate(8). These data indicate that biodegradation of N-methyldiethanolamine in water may only occur under acclimated conditions(8). [ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), N-methyldiethanolamine, which has a vapor pressure of 2.0X10-4 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase N-methyldiethanolamine 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 4 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 9.7X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3). N-Methyldiethanolamine does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(4) and, therefore, is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).

ExpositionspfadeThe substance can be absorbed into the body by ingestion.
ToxizitätsübersichtIDENTIFICATION AND USE: N-Methyldiethanolamine (MDEA) is a colorless liquid. MDEA is used as an intermediate, in absorption of acidic gases, as a catalyst for polyurethane foams, and pH control agent. HUMAN STUDIES: There are no data available. ANIMAL STUDIES: MDEA was irritating to the guinea pig skin, and showed potential to induce allergic contact dermatitis. MDEA caused slight eye irritation. In rats, recurrent skin application of MDEA produced a dose-related irritant effect, but there was no evidence for systemic cumulative or specific target organ or tissue toxicity. Rat dams showed dose-dependent skin irritation following repeated cutaneous application of MDEA during pregnancy. In addition, maternal toxicity was also present as anemia in dams receiving 1000 mg/kg/day. Despite maternal toxicity, there was no evidence of developmental effects. MDEA was not genotoxic when tested in the Salmonella/microsome reverse gene mutation test, the CHO/HGPRT forward gene mutation test, a sister chromatid exchange test in cultured CHO cells, and an in vivo peripheral blood micronucleus test in mice.

ICSC Environmental DataThe substance is harmful to aquatic organisms.
Soil Adsorption/MobilityUsing a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of N-methyldiethanolamine can be estimated to be 1(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that N-methyldiethanolamine is expected to have very high mobility in soil. The pKa of N-methyldiethanolamine is 8.52(3), indicating that this compound will exist partially in the cation form in the environment and cations generally adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(4).
Artificial Pollution SourcesN-Methyldiethanolamine's production and use in the absorption of acidic gases, catalyst for polyurethane foams, pH control agent(1) and surfactant intermediate(2) may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams(SRC). Its use as an agent precursor(3) and possible chemical warefare agent(4) will result in its direct release to the environment(SRC).
Environmental BiodegradationAEROBIC: N-Methyldiethanolamine (present at 40% solution obtained from a gas sweetening plant) was found to be non-biodegradable after 28 days during a standard batch test using activated sludge from a municipal wastewater treatment plant as inoculum(1). In a 40-day continuous flow experiment using activated sludge, the same solution containing N-methyldiethanolamine degraded >96% based on TOC which was probably due to the adaptation of the microorganisms to the test substance(1). N-Methyldiethanolamine, added at daily increments of 15 mg/L, reached 40.0% of its BOD during a five day biochemical oxygen demand test using acclimated sewage culture(2). The biodegradation half-life of N-methyldiethanolamine was reported as 11.6 and 10.0 hours in 3 and 7% hyper saline wastewater solutions, respectively(3).
Environmental BioconcentrationAn estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for N-methyldiethanolamine(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of -1.50(1) and a regression-derived equation(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low.
Volatilization from Water/SoilA pKa of 8.52(1) indicates N-methyldiethanolamine will exist partially in the cation form at pH values of 5 to 9 and, therefore, volatilization from water surfaces of the cation is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC). The Henry's Law constant for neutral N-methyldiethanolamine is estimated as 3.1X10-11 atm-cu m/mole(SRC) derived from its vapor pressure, 2.0X10-4 mm Hg(2), and assigned value for water solubility of 1X10+6 mg/L (miscible)(3). This Henry's Law constant indicates that N-methyldiethanolamine is expected to be essentially nonvolatile from water and moist soil surfaces(4). N-Methyldiethanolamine is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(2).
