Excerpt from ERG Guide 115 [Gases - Flammable (Including Refrigerated Liquids)]:

Shut off supply; if not possible and no risk to surroundings, let the fire burn itself out. In other cases extinguish with water spray. In case of fire: keep cylinder cool by spraying with water. Combat fire from a sheltered position.

Fresh air, rest. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer for medical attention.

ON FROSTBITE: rinse with plenty of water, do NOT remove clothes.

First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.

Excerpt from NIOSH Pocket Guide for Methyl acetylene:

(General first aid procedures)

On loss of containment this gas can cause suffocation by lowering the oxygen content of the air in confined areas.

The gas is heavier than air and may travel along the ground; distant ignition possible. As a result of flow, agitation, etc., electrostatic charges can be generated.

Shut off supply; if not possible and no risk to surroundings, let the fire burn itself out; in other cases extinguish with water spray ... Keep cylinder cool by spraying with water. Combat fire from a sheltered position.

To fight fire, stop the flow of gas.

Evacuate danger area! Ventilation. Remove all ignition sources. NEVER direct water jet on liquid. (Extra personal protection: chemical protection suit including self-contained breathing apparatus).

IF...LEAKED, THE FOLLOWING STEPS SHOULD BE TAKEN: 1. REMOVE ALL IGNITION SOURCES. 2. VENTILATE AREA OF LEAK TO DISPERSE GAS. 3. STOP FLOW OF GAS. IF SOURCE OF LEAK IS CYLINDER & LEAK CANNOT BE STOPPED IN PLACE, REMOVE...TO SAFE PLACE IN OPEN AIR, KEEP PEOPLE AWAY, & REPAIR THE LEAK OR ALLOW THE CYLINDER TO EMPTY.

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.

METHYL ACETYLENE MAY BE DISPOSED OF 1. IF IN SMALL QUANTITIES, BY ALLOWING THE GAS TO ESCAPE INTO OPEN AIR AT A PLACE WHERE THERE ARE NO IGNITION SOURCES. 2. IF IN LARGE QUANTITIES, BY ALLOWING THE GAS TO BURN UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

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.

SRP: Contaminated protective clothing should be segregated in such a manner so that there is no direct personal contact by personnel who handle, dispose, or clean the clothing. Quality assurance to ascertain the completeness of the cleaning procedures should be implemented before the decontaminated protective clothing is returned for reuse by the workers. Contaminated clothing should not be taken home at end of shift, but should remain at employee's place of work for cleaning.

Work clothing that becomes wet should be immediately removed due to its flammability hazard (i.e., for liquids with a flash point <100 °F).

NO open flames, NO sparks, and NO smoking ... Closed system, ventilation, explosion-proof electrical equipment and lighting. Prevent build-up of electrostatic charges (eg, by grounding) if in liquid state. Use non-sparking handtools. Prevent build-up of electrostatic charges (eg, by grounding). Local exhaust or breathing protection ... Local exhaust or breathing protection.

TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 77(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 0.94(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 1-propyne is expected to have high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of 1-propyne from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 0.011 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 4.31X10+3 mm Hg(4), and water solubility, 3,640 mg/L(5). 1-Propyne is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(4). 1-Propyne readily volatilizes from dry and moist soil surfaces. 1-Propyne volatilizes readily from water and moist soil surfaces; therefore, biodegradation studies in these environments are difficult(SRC). Biodegradation studies in soil were not located(SRC, 2006).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 77(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 0.94(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 1-propyne is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 0.011 atm-cu m/mole(SRC) derived from its vapor pressure, 4.31X10+3 mm Hg(4), and water solubility, 3,640 mg/L(5). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 41 min and 2.5 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(6), an estimated BCF of 3(SRC), from its log Kow(2) and a regression-derived equation(7), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). 1-Propyne volatilizes readily from water and moist soil surfaces; therefore, biodegradation studies in these environments are difficult(SRC). Biodegradation studies in water were not located(SRC, 2006).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 1-propyne, which has a vapor pressure of 4.31X10+3 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a gas in the ambient atmosphere. Gas-phase 1-propyne 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 2.7 days(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 5.9X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3). 1-Propyne does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm and therefore is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(4).

In a study conducted by the Ford Motor Co, 1-propyne was identified as constituting 1.07-1.34% of the total hydrocarbon exhaust from a engine burning an isooctane fuel(1). In a Sydney, Australia study using 67 gasoline-fueled cars, the 1-propyne composition of hydrocarbon exhaust (excluding methane gas) was 0.4 to 0.5%(2). 1-Propyne was detected in the exhaust of spark-ignited engines burning gasoline and various olefinic fuels(3). 1-Propyne concns of <0.01 to 21.2 ppm were detected in the exhaust of turbojet engines operated at simulated supersonic flight conditions(4).

The Koc of 1-propyne is estimated as 77(SRC), using a log Kow of 0.94(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 1-propyne is expected to have high mobility in soil.

SOURCE DOMINATED: Ambient air monitoring conducted at 1000 ft heights at 5 locations over and downwind from a petroleum refinery (Benicia,CA) in Sept 1975 found 1-propyne at levels below 0.5 ug/cu m(1). 1-Propyne was released at levels below the quantification limit from emissions of two different ships, MS Aurora and Stena Danica that traveled from Denmark to Sweden during 1995(2). 1-Propyne in the air near roadways, lead smelter plants, and cast iron factories in Egypt comprised of 0.56, 0.06 and 0.17% of the non-methane organic contaminants respectively(3). 1-Propyne in the air at bus garages and from motorcycle emissions in Egypt comprised of 0.0.-0.2 and 0.2% of the non-methane organic contaminants in these areas respectively(3). 1-Propyne has been estimated to be about 3.87% of total emissions released in the exhaust of small engines(4).

URBAN/SUBURBAN: Sampling of air in Los Angeles, CA central business district on 9 days during Aug-Nov 1960 found 1-propyne concns ranging from <0.5 ppb (detection limit) to 6 ppb(1). Air monitoring of heavy afternoon haze in Riverside, CA during Aug-Nov 1965 found 1-propyne levels of 0-1.4 ppb(2). Ambient air monitoring conducted in Sydney, Australia during May 1979 to June 1980 (140 total air samples) found an avg 1-propyne concn of 0.5 ppb(3). 1-Propyne was detected in the air of Taipei with an average concentration of 0.4 ppbv and not detected in Hamburg, Germany; Chicago, Il; Athens, Greece or Osaka, Japan(4).

Analysis of blood by headspace gas chromatography (HS-GC) detected two unknown peaks. ... MAPP was quantitated in femoral blood (59.6 mg/L) and brain (43.6 mg/kg) using a HS-GC method.

/BIOMONITORING/ Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry has been used to measure propyne in exhaled air.

/OTHER TOXICITY INFORMATION/ Propyne is 18 times as potent as acetylene in causing CNS depression.

1-Propyne's production and use as a synthetic intermediate, specialty and welding torch fuel(1,2) as well as its emission as a byproduct of automobile and turbine engine combustion(3) result in its release to the environment through various waste streams(SRC).

A Rhodococcus species isolated from soil was able to use 1-propyne(1).

AEROBIC: 1-Propyne volatilizes readily from water and moist soil surfaces; therefore, biodegradation studies in these environments are difficult. (SRC)
