Definition
ChEBI: 1,2,3-triazine is a triazine.
General Description
Any of several related compounds or a mixture thereof. A liquid or solid dissolved in a liquid carrier; the carrier is water emulsifiable (Farm Chemicals Handbook p. C145, 1995). Flash point below 141°F. Toxic by inhalation, skin absorption and/or ingestion. The primary hazard is the flammability of the carrier. Obtain the technical name of the material from the shipping paper and contact CHEMTREC, 800-424-9300 for specific response information.
Air & Water Reactions
Flammable.
Reactivity Profile
TRIAZINE PESTICIDE may be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, acids, phenols, epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Incompatible with alkalis [Farm Chemicals Handbook].
Health Hazard
TOXIC; may be fatal if inhaled, ingested or absorbed through skin. Inhalation or contact with some of these materials will irritate or burn skin and eyes. Fire will produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution.
Fire Hazard
HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Vapor explosion and poison hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. Containers may explode when heated. Many liquids are lighter than water.
