| | CHLORDAN TECHNICAL MIXTURE PESTANAL Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Chlordane is a colorless, or light-yellow or
amber, thick liquid. Pungent, chlorine-like odor. It may
occur as a crystalline solid. | | Uses | Chlordane (Technical Grade) used as a pesticide in the protection of crops. | | Definition | ChEBI: Chlordane is a cyclodiene organochlorine insecticide. It has a role as a GABA-gated chloride channel antagonist and a persistent organic pollutant. It derives from a hydride of an indene. | | General Description | Brown or amber very viscous liquid. Insoluble in water. | | Air & Water Reactions | Slightly water soluble. | | Reactivity Profile | CHLORDANE, a mixture of related chlorinated cyclodienes, is decomposed by alkalis. Corrodes iron and zinc. Can react with strong oxidizing agents. Attacks some forms of plastics, rubber and coatings | | Fire Hazard | CHLORDAN TECHNICAL MIXTURE PESTANAL is combustible. | | Safety Profile | Suspected carcinogen.
A poison by ingestion. Moderately toxic by
skin contact. Experimental reproductive
effects. Mutation data reported. | | Potential Exposure | Chlordane is a broad spectrum insecticide of the group of polycyclic chlorinated hydrocarbons
called cyclodiene insecticides. Chlordane has been used
extensively since the 1950s for termite control; as an insecticide for homes and gardens; and as a control for soil
insects during the production of crops, such as corn. Both
the uses and the production volume of chlordane have
decreased extensively since the issuance of a registration
suspension notice for all food crops and home and garden
uses of chlordane by the United States Environmental
Protection Agency. However, significant commercial use of
chlordane for termite control continues. Special groups
at risk include children as a result of milk consumed;
fishermen and their families because of the high consumption of fish and shellfish, especially freshwater fish;
persons living downwind from treated fields; and persons
living in houses treated with chlordane pesticide control
agents. | | Shipping | UN2996 Organochlorine pesticides, liquid, toxic,
Hazard Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials. | | Incompatibilities | Contact with strong oxidizers may cause
fire and explosions. High heat and contact with alkaline
solutions cause decomposition with the production of toxic
fumes including chlorine, phosgene, hydrogen chloride.
Attacks iron, zinc, plastics, rubber, and coatings. | | Waste Disposal | Chlordane is dehydrochlorinated in alkali to form “nontoxic” products, a reaction catalyzed by traces of iron, but the reaction is slow. The
environmental hazards of the products are uncertain.
Chlordane is completely dechlorinated by sodium in isopropyl alcohol. The UN Recommends incineration methods for
disposal of chlordane. 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. |
