Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. NO open flames. Water in large amounts. EXPLOSION Risk of fire and explosion. Do NOT expose to friction or shock. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water. Combat fire from a sheltered position. EXPOSURE PREVENT DISPERSION OF DUST! STRICT HYGIENE!  •INHALATION See Ingestion. Local exhaust or breathing protection. Fresh air, rest (see Notes). Refer for medical attention.  •SKIN MAY BE ABSORBED! Redness. Roughness. Yellow staining of the skin. (Further see Inhalation). Protective gloves. Protective clothing. Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. Refer for medical attention.  •EYES Safety goggles. First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.  •INGESTION Nausea. Vomiting. Palpitations. Collapse. Sweating. Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Rest. Refer for medical attention. SPILLAGE DISPOSAL STORAGE PACKAGING & LABELLING Evacuate danger area! Do not allow to dry out. Sweep spilled substance into containers. Wipe up remainder in sand or other inert material, then remove to safe place. Personal protection: complete protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus. Fireproof. Separated from combustible and reducing substances, food and feedstuffs . Cool. Unbreakable packaging; put breakable packaging into closed unbreakable container. Do not transport with food and feedstuffs. Marine pollutant.

International Chemical Safety Cards 2,4-DINITROPHENOL ICSC: 0464 I M P O R T A N T D A T A PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE: YELLOW CRYSTALS. (SEE NOTES). PHYSICAL DANGERS: Dust explosion possible if in powder or granular form, mixed with air. CHEMICAL DANGERS: May explosively decompose on shock, friction, or concussion. May explode on heating. Shock-sensitive compounds are formed with alkalis, ammonia and most metals. The substance decomposes on heating producing toxic gases including nitrogen oxides (see Notes). OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: TLV not established. ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation, through the skin and by ingestion. INHALATION RISK: Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly. EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance may cause effects on metabolism , resulting in very high body temperature. Exposure may result in death. EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis. The substance may have effects on the peripheral nervous system. The substance may have effects on the eyes , resulting in cataracts. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Sublimation Melting point: 112°C Relative density (water = 1): 1.68 Solubility in water, g/100 ml at 54.5°C: 0.14 Relative vapour density (air = 1): 6.36 ENVIRONMENTAL DATA This substance may be hazardous to the environment; special attention should be given to aquatic organisms. N O T E S Use all available methods for reducing body temperature. Because of its explosive properties, the compound is used in the form of a water paste. UN 0076 applies to the dry compound. CAS 25550-58-7 applies to unspecified isomers of dinitrophenol. Card has been partly updated in October 2005. See sections Occupational Exposure Limits, EU classification, Emergency Response.
