4.First-aid measures
4.1 Description of necessary first-aid measures
General advice
Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.
If inhaled
Fresh air, rest. Refer immediately for medical attention.
In case of skin contact
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.
In case of eye contact
Rinse with plenty of water (remove contact lenses if easily possible).
If swallowed
Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer for medical attention .
4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
Vapor can cause dizziness and drunkenness; high levels cause anesthesia. Liquid irritates eyes and skin. (USCG, 1999)
4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand-valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR as necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. /Chlorinated fluorocarbons (CFCs) and related compounds/
5.Fire-fighting measures

10.Stability and reactivity
10.1 Reactivity
no data available
10.2 Chemical stability
Stable under recommended storage conditions.
10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactions
Flammable liquidThe vapour is heavier than air and may travel along the ground; distant ignition possible. Vapours are uninhibited and may polymerize, causing blockage of vents.Peroxidizable monomer, such as VINYLIDENE CHLORIDE, may initiate exothermic polymerization of the bulk material [Bretherick 1979. p. 160, 187]. Mixing vinylidene chloride in equal molar portions in a closed container with any of the following substances caused the temperature and pressure to increase: chlorosulfonic acid, nitric acid, or oleum [NFPA 1991]. Its reaction products with ozone are particularly dangerous [Dow Chemical, 1968]. This may extend to other powerful oxidants, as various peroxides are produced.

12.2 Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: 1,1-Dichloroethylene, present at 9.7 mg/L, reached 0% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 2 mg/L and the Closed Bottle Test(1). In another study, 45-78% of the chemical was lost in 7 days when incubated with a wastewater inoculum; however, a sizeable fraction of the loss was due to volatilization(2). 97% of 1,1-dichloroethylene was reported to be removed in a municipal wastewater plant(3). 1,1-Dichloroethylene at a concn of 160 ug/L was degraded using continuous mixed, batch-fed reactors at a 20-day operating solids retention time(4). 1,1-Dichloroethylene had a biodegradation half-life of 1.25 yrs in ground water from a former manufacturing facility in NJ(5).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potential
BCFs of 2.5 to 6.4 and <13 were measured for 1,1-dichloroethylene at concentrations of 0.5 and 0.05 mg/L, respectively(1). According to a classification scheme(2), these BCF values suggest bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
12.4 Mobility in soil
The Koc for 1,1-dichloroethylene has been measured as 64(1) and 65(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this Koc value suggests that 1,1-dichloroethylene is expected to have high mobility in soil. A Koc of 293 was measured in sewage solids(4).
