説明
Mirex and chlordecone are two separate, but chemically similar, manufactured insecticides that do not occur naturally in the environment. Mirex is a white crystalline solid, and chlordecone is a tan-white crystalline solid. Both chemicals are odourless. Mirex and chlordecone have not been manufactured or used in the United States since 1978. Mirex was used to control fire ants and as a flame retardant in plastics, rubber, paint, paper, and electrical goods from 1959 to 1972. Chlordecone was used as an insecticide on tobacco, ornamental shrubs, bananas, and citrus trees and in ant and roach traps. Mirex was sold as a flame retardant under the trade name Dechlorane, and chlordecone was also known as Kepone. Mirex and chlordecone break down slowly in the environment, and they may stay for years in soil and water. Mirex is not readily decomposed chemically or biologically and is relatively persistent.
化学的特性
Mirex is a snow-white crystalline solid.
使用
An insecticide for fire ants. Formerly used as a fire retardant for plastics, rubber, paint, paper, electric goods. Reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen.
一般的な説明
Odorless white crystalline solid.
空気と水の反応
Insoluble in water.
反応プロフィール
MIREX is sensitive to exposure to sunlight. MIREX may react with strong oxidizers. MIREX reacts with lithium and tertiary butyl alcohol.
危険性
Nephrotoxic, highly toxic, possible car-cinogen, teratogen, tumorigen, mutagen, poi-sonous, environmentally persistent, and bioaccu-mulates.
健康ハザード
INGESTION, INHALATION, OR SKIN EXPOSURE: Gas- trointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting, and possible diarrhea. Malaise, headache, CNS excitation with tremor, paresthesias, ataxia, confusion, convulsions, and ventricular fibrillation. CNS depression and central respiratory paralysis may occur.
火災危険
Behavior in Fire: Supports combustion
安全性プロファイル
Confirmed carcinogen
with experimental carcinogenic,
tumorigenic, and teratogenic data. Poison by
ingestion. Moderately toxic by inhalation
and skin contact. An experimental teratogen.Experimental reproductive effects. Mutation
data reported. A persistent insecticide that is
toxic to non-target species. It can
bioaccumulate
職業ばく露
A potential danger to those involved
in the manufacture, formulation, and application of the
insecticide (particularly effective against fire ants). Also
used as a fire retardant in plastics. Not produced in the
United States but may be found in imported products.
発がん性
Mirex is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity from studies in experimental
animals.
輸送方法
UN2761 Organochlorine pesticides, solid, toxic,
Hazard Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials.
不和合性
Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates,
nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine,
bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions.
Keep away from alkaline materials, strong bases,
strong acids, oxoacids, epoxides, dichromates.
廃棄物の処理
High-temperature incineration
is recommended. In accordance with 40CFR165, follow recommendations for the disposal of pesticides and pesticide
containers. Must be disposed properly by following
package label directions or by contacting your local or federal
environmental control agency, or by contacting your
regional EPA office.
