International Chemical Safety Cards MALATHION ICSC: 0172 I M P O R T A N T D A T A PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE: YELLOW TO BROWN LIQUID , WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR. PHYSICAL DANGERS: CHEMICAL DANGERS: The substance decomposes on heating or on burning producing toxic fumes including phosphorus oxides and sulfur oxides . Reacts violently with strong oxidants . Attacks iron and some other metals, some forms of plastic and rubber. May form the more toxic isomalathion on heating. OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: TLV: 1 mg/m³ as TWA; (skin); A4 (not classifiable as a human carcinogen); BEI issued; (ACGIH 2005). MAK: (Inhalable fraction) 15 mg/m³; Peak limitation category: II(4); Pregnancy risk group: D; (DFG 2005). OSHA PEL†: TWA 15 mg/m3 skin NIOSH REL: TWA 10 mg/m3 skin NIOSH IDLH: 250 mg/m3 See: 121755 ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation, through the skin and by ingestion. INHALATION RISK: A harmful contamination of the air will not or will only very slowly be reached on evaporation of this substance at 20°C ; on spraying or dispersing, however, much faster. EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance may cause effects on the central nervous system , resulting in convulsions and respiratory depression . The effects may be delayed. Medical observation is indicated. EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization. Cholinesterase inhibitor; cumulative effect is possible: see acute hazards/symptoms. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Boiling point at 0.093 kPa: 156-157°C Melting point: 3°C Relative density (water = 1): 1.2 Solubility in water: 145 mg/l Vapour pressure, Pa at 30°C: negligible Relative vapour density (air = 1): 11.4 Relative density of the vapour/air-mixture at 20°C (air = 1): 1.00 Flash point: 163°C c.c. Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 2.89 ENVIRONMENTAL DATA The substance is very toxic to aquatic organisms. This substance may be hazardous to the environment; special attention should be given to honey bees. This substance does enter the environment under normal use. Great care, however, should be given to avoid any additional release, e.g. through inappropriate disposal. N O T E S Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is suggested. Specific treatment is necessary in case of poisoning with this substance; the appropriate means with instructions must be available. If the substance is formulated with solvents also consult the ICSCs of these materials. Carrier solvents used in commercial formulations may change physical and toxicological properties.
