Do not scatter spilled material with high-pressure water streams. Move containers from fire area if you can do it without risk. Dike fire-control water for later disposal. FIRE INVOLVING TANKS: Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety devices or discoloration of tank. ALWAYS stay away from tanks engulfed in fire. (ERG, 2016)

Excerpt from ERG Guide 171 [Substances (Low to Moderate Hazard)]: Some may burn but none ignite readily. Containers may explode when heated. Some may be transported hot. For UN3508, be aware of possible short circuiting as this product is transported in a charged state. (ERG, 2016)

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.

Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing mist, gas or vapours.Avoid contacting with skin and eye. Use personal protective equipment.Wear chemical impermeable gloves. Ensure adequate ventilation.Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.

Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.

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.

Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.

Store the container tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Store apart from foodstuff containers or incompatible materials.

Hydrolysis rapidly occurs under alkaline conditions

Stable up to 50 degrees C. Stable in neutral and weakly acidic media.

A halogenated dicarboximide. Organic amides/imides react with azo and diazo compounds to generate toxic gases. Flammable gases are formed by the reaction of organic amides/imides with strong reducing agents. Amides are very weak bases (weaker than water). Imides are less basic yet and in fact react with strong bases to form salts. That is, they can react as acids. Mixing amides with dehydrating agents such as P2O5 or SOCl2 generates the corresponding nitrile. The combustion of these compounds generates mixed oxides of nitrogen (NOx).

Vinclozolin is persistent in soil, being only partly degraded by soil microorganisms(1). When vinclozolin was applied to a previously untreated sandy loam soil (17.7% clay, 67.5% sand, 14.8% silt, pH 6.5, 1.05% organic C), less than 10% of the applied dose remained after 40 days(2). Following re-treatment at 50 days, less than 10% remained 23 days later, and when treated for the third time, less than 10% remained after just 2 days(2). In a clay loam soil (19.1% clay, 68.9% sand, 12.0% silt, pH 6.3, 0.68% organic C), times for 50% loss of the first, second, and third applications of vinclozolin were about 7, 4, and 2.5 days, respectively(2). In a third soil (8.6% clay, 75.7% sand, 15.7% silt, pH 5.0, 1.13% organic carbon), 47% of the initial dose remained after 140 days(2). When treated for the first time after pre-incubation with the fungicide, about 60% of the vinclozolin was recovered after 69 days(2). During an 80 day incubation period, only limited degradation of vinclozolin was observed in soils at pH 4.3 and 5.0(3). In soil with pH 5.7, the time for 50% loss of vinclozolin was about 75 days; times for 50% degradation following the first, second, and third application of vinclozolin were 70, 30, and 6 days, respectively(3). In soil with pH 6.5, the times for 50% degradation following the first, second, and third applications were 30, 22, and 7 days, respectively(3). After 14 days incubation in soil with no pretreatment, and soil pretreated with iprodione, vinclozolin, myclozolin, and procymidone, the concentration of vinclozolin was 5.45, 5.50, 0.05, 5.39, and 5.45 mg/kg, respectively; after 28 days the concentration of vinclozolin was 2.44, 2.44, 1.89, 0, 2.37, and 2.31 mg/kg, respectively(4). In Patumahoe clay loam, the time for 50% loss of vinclozolin following the first, second, and third soil application of the fungicide was 22, 3.5, and 1 days, respectively(5). For five different types of field soil (clay loam, silt loam, loam, sandy loam and sandy clay loam) ranging in pH from 7.98 to 8.35, 90% degradation was reached after one, two and three applications of vinclozolin in approximately 35, 21 and 7 days, respectively(6).

One study predicted worst-case BCF values in fish for vinclozolin of 60 and 1,260(1), respectively, on a wet weight basis with 5% lipid, and on a lipid basis predicted from the log Kow of 3.10(2) if no metabolism occurs or is negligible(1). Another study calculated a BCF range of 78 to 112(3). An estimated BCF of 52 was calculated in fish for vinclozolin(SRC), using a log Kow of 3.10(2) and a regression-derived equation(4). According to a classification scheme(5), these BCF data suggest the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate to very high(SRC), provided the compound is not metabolized by the organism(SRC).

In laboratory tests, vinclozolin migrated through Ottowa sand more deeply compared to aquatic hapludult soil, where all vinclozolin mass was retained in the upper 5 cm under high (6.7 mm) and low (3.1 mm) rain events(1). One review suggested Koc values range from 100 to 735(2). A Koc value of 1,570 was determined in a Chalmers silty clay loam(3). According to a classification scheme(4), these disparate Koc values suggest that vinclozolin is expected to range from low to high mobility in soil.
