FLAMMABILITY LIMITS IN AIR:

Much of the information related to fire and explosion is derived from the National Fire

Protection Association (NFPA). Flash Point - Minimum temperature at which a liquid gives off

sufficient vapors to form an ignitable mixture with air. Autoignition Temperature: The

minimum temperature required to initiate combustion in air with no other source of ignition.

LEL - the lowest percent of vapor in air, by volume, that will explode or ignite in the presence of

an ignition source. UEL - the highest percent of vapor in air, by volume, that will explode or

ignite in the presence of an ignition source.

TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION:

Human and Animal Toxicology: Possible health hazards as derived from human data, animal studies,

or from the results of studies with similar compounds are presented. Definitions of some terms used in

this section are: LD

- Lethal Dose (solids & liquids) which kills 50% of the exposed animals; LC

Lethal Concentration (gases) which kills 50% of the exposed animals; ppm concentration expressed in

parts of material per million parts of air or water; mg/m

concentration expressed in weight of substance

per volume of air; mg/kg quantity of material, by weight, administered to a test subject, based on their

body weight in kg. Human and Animal Toxicology (continued): Other measures of toxicity include

TDLo, the lowest dose to cause a symptom and TCLo the lowest concentration to cause a symptom;

TDo, LDLo, and LDo, or TC, TCo, LCLo, and LCo, the lowest dose (or concentration) to cause lethal

or toxic effects. Cancer Information: The sources are: IARC - the International Agency for Research

on Cancer; NTP - the National Toxicology Program, RTECS - the Registry of Toxic Effects of

Chemical Substances, OSHA and CAL/OSHA. IARC and NTP rate chemicals on a scale of decreasing

potential to cause human cancer with rankings from 1 to 4. Subrankings (2A, 2B, etc.) are also used.

Other Information: BEI - ACGIH Biological Exposure Indices, represent the levels of determinants

which are most likely to be observed in specimens collected from a healthy worker who has been

exposed to chemicals to the same extent as a worker with inhalation exposure to the TLV.

REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY INFORMATION:

A mutagen is a chemical that causes permanent changes to genetic material (DNA) such that the changes

will propagate through generational lines. An embryotoxin is a chemical that causes damage to a

developing embryo (i.e. within the first eight weeks of pregnancy in humans), but the damage does not

propagate across generational lines. A teratogen is a chemical that causes damage to a developing fetus,

but the damage does not propagate across generational lines. A reproductive toxin is any substance that

interferes in any way with the reproductive process.

ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION:

EC is the effect concentration in water. BCF = Bioconcentration Factor, which is used to

determine if a substance will concentrate in lifeforms which consume contaminated plant or

animal matter. TL

= median threshold limit; Coefficient of Oil/Water Distribution is

represented by log K

or log K

and is used to assess a substance’s behavior in the

environment.
