DIETHYLENE GLYCOL is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. It is also incompatible with strong bases. It can react with sulfuric acid and other dehydrating agents, nitric acid, oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, perchloric acid and strong acids. Mixtures with sodium hydroxide decompose exothermically when heated to 446 °F. (NTP, 1992)

Fresh air, rest.

Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.

Rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible).

Give one or two glasses of water to drink. Rinse mouth. Refer immediately for medical attention.

EYES: 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.

SRP: Wastewater from contaminant suppression, cleaning of protective clothing/equipment, or contaminated sites should be contained and evaluated for subject chemical or decomposition product concentrations. Concentrations shall be lower than applicable environmental discharge or disposal criteria. Alternatively, pretreatment and/or discharge to a POTW is acceptable only after review by the governing authority. Due consideration shall be given to remediation worker exposure (inhalation, dermal and ingestion) as well as fate during treatment, transfer and disposal. If it is not practicable to manage the chemical in this fashion, it must meet Hazardous Material Criteria for disposal.

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 quality; potential migration in soil or water; effects on animal, aquatic, and plant life; and conformance with environmental and public health regulations.

Atomize into an incinerator. Combustion may be improved by mixing with a more flammable solvent. Recommendable methods: Incineration. ...

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. Wash away remainder with plenty of water.

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.

TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 1(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that diethylene glycol is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of diethylene glycol from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 2.0X10-9 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), using a fragment constant estimation method(3). Diethylene glycol is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 5.7X10-3 mm Hg at 25 °C(4). Diethylene glycol was readily biodegraded in a sandy loam(5) suggesting that biodegradation is an important environmental fate process in soil(SRC).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 1(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that diethylene glycol 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 2.0X10-9 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(4). According to a classification scheme(6), an estimated BCF of 3(SRC), from an estimated log Kow of -1.5(7) and a regression-derived equation(8), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Diethylene glycol was biodegraded partially from river water within 7 days at 20 °C, but under winter conditions of river flow and temperature (less than 8 °C) degradation was minimal(9).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), diethylene glycol, which has a vapor pressure of 5.7X10-3 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase diethylene glycol 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 17 hrs(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 3.0X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3). Diethylene glycol degraded 5.5% by light at a wavelength greater than 290 nm over a period of 17 hours(4) and therefore may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).

/AQUATIC SPECIES/ In October 1990, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency promulgated application requirements with deadlines for storm-water dischargers associated with industrial activity and certain municipal systems. Major airports have a number of hydrocarbon-based contaminants that could appear in storm-water runoff. In addition, ethylene, diethylene, and propylene glycol deicing and anti-icing mixtures are used during freezing and near-freezing weather. The objective of this study was to characterize the potential acute impact on aquatic life from industrial storm-water discharges from an international airport. Samples from winter storm events caused acute toxicity to both the fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) and the daphnid (Daphnia magna), with LC50 values for both species as low as 1.0 to 2.0% effluent. The toxicity of the samples was due to the various glycol-based deicer/anti-icer mixtures used during these events. High oxygen demands and elevated total nitrogen levels are other potential problems during anti-icing/deicing activities. Samples from rain events during the nonwinter months at the airport did not cause acute toxicity unless associated with fuel spills. As a result of this study, a new discharge permit has been issued for this airport, requiring the implementation of plans for the collection and recycling and/or disposal of the deicer /anti-icer mixtures.

Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of diethylene glycol can be estimated to be 1(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that diethylene glycol is expected to have very high mobility in soil.

Teratogenicity was evaluated in pregnant Dutch rabbits (8/group) exposed by inhalation to diethylene glycol at nominal concentrations of 0, 100, 250 or 450 ppm on gestation days (GD) 6-18. All surviving rabbits were sacrificed on GD 21. There were significant differences observed between treated and control animals in the following: decreased body weight and food consumption (high-dose group), increased mean percentage pre-implantation losses and litters with any pre-implantation loss (100 and 450 ppm), mean number of intra-uterine deaths (450 ppm), and decreased mean fetal and gravid uterine weights (all treated groups). There were no significant differences observed between treated and control animals in the following: maternal mortality, hematology values, organ weights, and macroscopic observations, post-implantation loss, and mean number of live fetuses. One high-dose group rabbit was found to have marked ataxia, loss of withdrawal reflex, and slight head tremors; this rabbit was sacrificed and found to have undergone 100% post-implantation losses.

Reproductive toxicity was evaluated in groups of 10 pregnant Charles River CD female mice receiving an oral gavage dose of diethylene glycol at 10 ml/kg body weight on gestation days 7 through 14. Maternal mortality, clinical observations or gross necropsy were not reported. There was a significant reduction (p<0.05) in the number of live pups per litter, reduced survival, and reduced birth weight among the offspring of treated dams.

/HUMAN EXPOSURE STUDIES/ 112 mg diethylene glycol /was applied/ for 3 days /following the standard Draize protocol/ resulted in a mild reaction to human skin.

/HUMAN EXPOSURE STUDIES/ No irritation of the mouth /was observed/ where 1-2 mL of a 50% aqueous solution /of diethylene glycol was ingested/ once daily for 4 days.

/HUMAN EXPOSURE STUDIES/ Following a patch-test on humans, /it was determined that diethylene glycol is/ not sensitizing.

/SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS/ Ethylene and diethylene glycol poisonings produce central nervous system depression, anion gap metabolic acidosis, osmolar gap and acute tubular necrosis; in severe cases, hypocalcemia, cerebral edema and heart failure may be observed; treatment often associates supportive measures, hemodialysis and administration of competitive inhibitors of alcohol dehydrogenase (ethanol or 4-methylpyrazole)...

Diethylene glycol's production and use as a chemical intermediate, textile softener, in petroleum solvent extraction; dehydration of natural gas, in plasticizers, and surfactants, solvent for nitrocellulose and many dyes and oils as well as a humectant for tobacco, synthetic sponges, paper products; book-binding adhesives and in cosmetics(1) may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams(SRC). The FDA regards it as hazardous for household use in concentration of 10% or more(1).

AEROBIC: Diethylene glycol, present at 30 mg/L, reached 90% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 100 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test(1). The compound, present at 100 mg/L, showed 59% (rate constant of 0.081/day, 5 day lag period) and 89% degradation (0.173/day, 5 day lag period) using the Sapromat and Oxitop systems, respectively, in manometric respirometry tests using activated sludge at 30 mg/L dry matter(2). Biodegradation of 44% and 78% degradation were reported when using seawater as inoculum in a shake flask die-away test (chemical concentration of 5-30 DOC/L) and the closed bottle oxygen consumption test (test chemical concentration of 2-10 mg/L), respectively, both incubated at 15-20 °C for 28 to 60 days; however, high carbon levels may have compromised the test results(3).

AEROBIC: Diethylene glycol was readily biodegraded in a sandy loam at rates of 15.6, 19.9, 22.4, and 50.0 mg/kg/day from initial concentrations of 262.7, 1792.1, 626.0, and 4512.0 ppm, respectively(1). This indicates that high concentrations of diethylene glycol are not inhibitory to soil microorganisms(1).

AEROBIC: Microorganisms from the Kanawana River that had been fed diethylene glycol for a period of 80 days did not show any appreciable acclimation (BOD Theoretical of 22% after 15 days of incubation)(1). Diethylene glycol will be removed partially or completely from river water within 7 days at 20 °C, but for winter conditions of river flow and temperature (less than 8 °C), degradation will be minimal(2). Results of a shake flask test and a closed bottle test (both using natural seawater) conducted by 14 laboratories gave averages of 12 and 8 days to reach 50% degradation after the lag phase, respectively(3). The 20-day BOD values for diethylene glycol (as % biooxidation) were 30% for non-acclimated fresh water, 67% for acclimated fresh water, and 14% for non-acclimated synthetic salt water(4).

AEROBIC: The results for the biodegradation of diethylene glycol with various tests are as follows: greater than 70% DOC removal at 19 days in 98% of the runs with the Zahn-Wellens test and 18% of the runs with the modified OECD test; greater than 60% CO2 removal/TOC at 14 and 26 days in 25% of the runs with the Sturm test; greater than 60% BOD/Theoretical oxygen demand at 30 days for 31% of the runs with the closed bottle test; and greater than 60% BOD/Theoretical oxygen demand at 14 days for 3% of the runs with the MITI test(1). Biodegradation of diethylene glycol in a series of different biodegradation tests is as follows: 53% removal using the coupled units test; 94% DOC removal in the Zahn-Wellens test; 42% DOC removal in the OECD screening test; 80% BODT after 30 days in the closed bottle test; 33% DOC removal in the Sturm test; and 59% DOC removal in the AFNOR test(2). Diethylene glycol was 100% biodegraded using the Zahn-Wellens test which measures inherent biodegradability; employing the Husmann simulation test, biodegradation was 88% and 52% using using domestic sewage and artificial seed as per OECD guidelines, respectively(3).

14C-Diethylene glycol (DEG), administered orally to rats at 1, 5, and 10 ml/kg, gave elimination half-lives of 6, 6, and 10 hr, respectively, from urinary excretion data.

Oral doses of 1 and 5 mL/kg 14C-diethylene glycol (DEG) /were/ given to rats. ... Half-lives of 6 hr were determined for doses of 1 and 5 mL/kg and 10 hr for the dose of 10 mL/kg.

Diethylene glycol is metabolized in the liver by two consecutive oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent reactions. First, diethylene glycol is metabolized by ADH to (2-hydroxyethoxy)acetaldehyde, which is then rapidly metabolized by aldehyde dehydrogenase to (2-hydroxyethoxy)acetate.

... /Diethylene glycol (DEG) is/ initially metabolized by /alcohol dehydrogenase/ and subsequently by /aldehyde dehydrogenase/. The ether linkage of DEG is not cleaved and no appreciable amounts of EG or EG metabolites are formed from DEG, although small amounts of /oxalic acid/ have occasionally been reported ...

... Based on studies in rats and dogs, unchanged diethylene glycol recovered in urine constitutes the majority of oral doses, with a single urinary metabolite, (2-hydroxyethoxy) acetic acid, accounting for most of the remainder .

Although the metabolism of diethylene glycol is not known, the presence of calcium oxalate crystals in the kidneys and urine of treated rats suggests that the metabolic pathway follows that of monoethylene glycerol, ie, to glycoaldehyde, which is further metabolized glycolate and then to oxalate, carbon dioxide, glycerine and serine.

Half-logarithmic plots of urinary 14C excretion rates versus time indicated zero-order elimination for the first 9 and 18 hr after oral doses of 5 and 10 mL of 14C-DEG/kg, respectively. 14C-DEG urinary elimination kinetics changed into first-order 6, 9, and 18 hr after oral doses of 1, 5, and 10 mL/kg, with a half-life of 3 hr. 2. ... The urinary concentrations of non-metabolized DEG and its metabolite, 2-hydroxyethoxyacetic acid (2-HEAA), determined by high-resolution nmr spectroscopy in the urine of rats doses with DEG were 61-68% and 16-31% dose, respectively. ... Oxidation of DEG ... in rats was accompanied by a change of urinary pH, reflecting metabolic acidosis.

Oral doses of 1 and 5 mL/kg (14)C-diethylene glycol (DEG) given to rats were rapidly and almost completely absorbed, the invasion constants being 2.95/ hr and 4.24/ hr ... (14)C-DEG was rapidly distributed from the blood into the organs and tissues in the order kidneys > brain > spleen > liver > muscle > fat, i.e. the same order as the blood flow. The relative volume of distribution, app. VD, was determined at 298 mL, indicating distribution over the whole body. After oral doses of 1, 5, and 10 mL (14)C-DEG/kg 64, 87, and 91% of (14)C activity in rat blood disappeared in 12-16 hr with a half-life of 3.4 hr and the remaining 9, 5, and 4% with half-lives of 39 hr, 45 hr, and 49 hr. A total of 73-96% of (14)C activity in blood was excreted with the urine and 0.7-2.2% with the feces. From the cumulative urinary excretion kinetics half-lives of 6 hr were determined for doses of 1 and 5 mL/kg and 10 hr for the dose of 10 mL/kg. After doses of 5 mL/kg and 10 mL/kg (14)C-DEG semi-logarithmic plots of elimination rate versus time were constant for 5 and 9 hr, respectively, indicating that DEG accelerated its renal elimination by inducing osmotic diuresis. Thereafter urinary excretion followed first order kinetics with elimination half-lives of 3.6 hr. After oral doses of 5 ml/kg (14)C-DEG given to rats of 336 g body weight with an app. VD of 297 mL, the total clearance of (14)C activity was determined at 63 mL/hr, and the renal clearance of unmetabolized DEG was 66 mL/hr. The ratio of ClDEG to Cl (inulin) = 0.64 indicated that DEG and its metabolite 2-hydroxyethoxyacetate (2-HEAA) were reabsorbed from the tubuli into the blood capillaries.

In metabolism studies with the dog ... a large portion of the diethylene glycol administered was excreted in the urine unchanged.

... Diethylene glycol may be absorbed through the skin especially upon essentially continuous contact ... .

Like /ethylene glycol/, diethylene glycol is well absorbed in the GI tract, distributed throughout total body water and organs on the basis of blood flow ...
