12.1 Toxicity

  • Toxicity to fish: LC50 Pimephales promelas (Fathead minnow) 36 mg/L 96 hr flow-through bioassay, weight 0.12 g, water hardness 45.5 mg/L CaCO3, temp: 25 + or - 1°C, pH 7.5, dissolved oxygen >60% of saturation
  • Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: no data available
  • Toxicity to algae: no data available
  • Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available

12.2 Persistence and degradability

AEROBIC: 2-Octanone (0-3.2 mg/L), inoculated with acclimated sewage, reached 48.1% of the theoretical oxygen demand in 5 days(1). Sewage taken from either a small aerobic digestion unit (Brookside) or a conventional activated sludge plant (Columbus) was used as an inoculum in the biodegradation of 2-octanone (at 500 mg/L); at 24 hours, Brookside cultures reached 3.5% of the theoretical oxygen demand while Columbus cultures had reached 10.5%(2). 2-Octanone, inoculated with sewage, reached 33% of the theoretical oxygen demand in 5 days(3). 2-Octanone (100 mg/L), incubated with acclimated sewage, reached 48% of the theoretical oxygen demand in 5 days(4).

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential

An estimated BCF value of 13 was calculated for 2-octanone(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.37(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF value suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).

12.4 Mobility in soil

The Koc of 2-octanone is estimated as 460(SRC), using a measured log Kow of 2.37(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 2-octanone is expected to have moderate mobility in soil(SRC).

12.5 Other adverse effects

no data available

13.Disposal considerations

13.1 Disposal methods

Product

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.

Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Remove all sources of ignition. Provide ventilation.

Section 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE
  Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use with adequate ventilation. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of ignition. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.

Section 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION
