Reactivity AlertsPeroxidizable Compound
Reactivity ProfileEthers, such as TRIETHYLENE GLYCOL METHYL ETHER, can act as bases. They form salts with strong acids and addition complexes with Lewis acids. The complex between diethyl ether and boron trifluoride is an example. Ethers may react violently with strong oxidizing agents. In other reactions, which typically involve the breaking of the carbon-oxygen bond, ethers are relatively inert.
Chemical DangersOn combustion, forms toxic gases. Reacts with strong acids, strong bases and strong oxidants.
Air and Water ReactionsEthers tend to form unstable peroxides when exposed to oxygen. Ethyl, isobutyl, ethyl tert-butyl, and ethyl tert-pentyl ether are particularly hazardous in this respect. Ether peroxides can sometimes be observed as clear crystals deposited on containers or along the surface of the liquid.
NFPA Hazard Classification1 - Materials that, under emergency conditions, can cause significant irritation.1 - Materials that must be preheated before ignition can occur. Materials require considerable preheating, under all ambient temperature conditions, before ignition and combustion can occur.0 - Materials that in themselves are normally stable, even under fire conditions.
BrandbekämpfungFire Extinguishing Agents Not to Be Used: Water or foam may cause frothing.Use powder, foam, carbon dioxide.
Erste-Hilfe-MaßnahmenFresh air, rest.Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.Rinse with plenty of water (remove contact lenses if easily possible).Rinse mouth. Give one or two glasses of water to drink.
Erste HilfeWash affected parts with water. (USCG, 1999)

UmweltverhaltenTERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 10(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that triethylene glycol monomethyl ether is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of triethylene glycol monomethyl ether from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 3.5X10-14 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), using a fragment constant estimation method(3). Triethylene glycol monomethyl ether is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon an estimated vapor pressure of 3.5X10-3 mm Hg(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(4). Triethylene glycol monomethyl ether has percent theoretical BOD values of 14 and 23 at 10 and 20 days, respectively(5), which suggest that biodegradation is not an important environmental fate process in soil(SRC).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 10(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that triethylene glycol monomethyl ether is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 3.5X10-14 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(4). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 3(SRC), from an estimated log Kow of -1.46(6) and a regression-derived equation(7), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Triethylene glycol monomethyl ether has percent theoretical BOD values of 14 and 23 at 10 and 20 days, respectively(8), which suggest that biodegradation is not an important environmental fate process in water(SRC).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), triethylene glycol monomethyl ether, which has an estimated vapor pressure of 3.5X10-3 mm Hg at 25 °C(SRC), determined from a fragment constant method(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase triethylene glycol monomethyl ether 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 9.6 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 4X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3).

Human Toxicity Excerpts/EPIDEMIOLOGY STUDIES/ Ethylene glycol ethers (EGEs) including diglyme are used in the manufacture of semiconductors. Epidemiological studies of semiconductor populations evaluated potential adverse reproductive outcomes. ... In each of these studies, workers were exposed to mixtures including diglyme but not to diglyme alone. ... Exposure to EGEs was determined using questionnaires from subjects about the work performed and an assessment of the work environment by industrial hygienists, but no measurements of personal or area exposures were made. Workers in the fabrication area were considered exposed to EGEs. For the retrospective study, information on pregnancy outcomes and potential confounders (age, smoking, ethnicity, education, income, year of pregnancy, and stress) was obtained through a comprehensive interviewer-administered interview of female employees. The prospective study of early fetal loss and fecundity (probability of conception per menstrual cycle) was conducted in a subset of female employees from five plants. Daily diaries and measurements of daily urinary human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) levels for 6 months were collected in addition to the comprehensive interview. Of the 891 medically verified pregnancies identified for the retrospective study, 774 (86.9%) were live births, 113 (12.7%) were spontaneous abortions, and 4 (0.4%) were stillbirths. The overall unadjusted relative risk (RR) for spontaneous abortions was 1.45 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.02-2.05) and changed little after adjusting for confounders (adjusted RR =1.4395% CI = 0.95-2.09). When stratified by work group, the risk of spontaneous abortion was statistically significantly increased for female workers in the photolithography group (RR = 1.6795% CI = 1.04-2.55) and in the etching group (RR = 2.0895% CI = 1.27-3.19). For women working with higher levels of EGE only in masking, the risk for spontaneous abortion was increased 3-fold (RR = 3.3895% CI = 1.61-5.73). In the prospective study, no statistically significant differences were detected in the overall rate of spontaneous abortions between fabrication and non-fabrication workers or when pregnancy outcomes were examined by work group. However, the ability to conceive was lower among female workers exposed to EGEs (fertility rate [FR] = 0.3795% CI = 0.11-1.19). /Ethylene glycol ethers//BIOMONITORING/ In the present study, floor lacquerers' (n = 22) inhalation and total exposure to 2-(2-alkoxy)ethoxyethanols was measured. The measurements of inhalation exposure were done with charcoal tubes, and total exposure was biomonitored by urinalysis of 2-(2-alkoxyethoxy)acetic acids. The 8 hr inhalation exposures of floor lacquerers to 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethanol (DEGME), 2-(2-ethoxyethoxy)ethanol (DEGEE) and 2-(2-butoxyethoxy)ethanol (DEGBE) were in average 0.23 +/- 0.07 ppm (average +/-S.D., n = 3), 0.08 +/- 0.07 ppm (n = 16), and 0.05 +/- 0.03 ppm (n = 16), respectively. The excretions of 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)acetic acid (MEAA), 2-(2-ethoxyethoxy)acetic acid (EEAA) and 2-(2-butoxyethoxy)acetic acid (BEAA) were in average 4.9 +/- 4.3 mmol/mol creatinine, 9.3 +/- 8.0 mmol/mol creatinine and 9.2 +/- 7.4 mmol/mol creatinine, respectively. A linear relationship was found between the urinary 2-(2-alkoxyethoxy)acetic acid concentrations and the preceding 8-hr occupational exposure to 2-(2-alkoxyethoxy)ethanol.
Artificial Pollution SourcesTriethylene glycol monomethyl ether's production and use as a plasticizer intermediate(1), coupling solvent, brake/hydraulic fluid blending component, wetting agent, and solvent may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams(SRC).
Environmental BiodegradationAEROBIC: Triethylene glycol monomethyl ether has 10 and 20 day theoretical BOD values of 14 and 23, respectively(1). A study using activated sludge gave a degradation rate for diethylene glycol monoethyl ether of 0.22/hour(2) giving a half-life of 3.2 hours(SRC).
Environmental BioconcentrationAn estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for triethylene glycol monomethyl ether(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of -1.46(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).
