Insoluble in water.

TAU-FLUVALINATE is a trifluoromethyl pyrethroid. May react with acids to liberate heat. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated in contact with caustic solutions. Flammable or toxic gases may be generated by mixing with alkali metals and hydrides.

Insecticide: Not listed for use in EU countries. Some applications may be classified as a U.S. EPA restricted Use Pesticide (RUP). Used as a broad-spectrum insecticide to control moths, beetles and other pests on cereals, potatoes, fruit trees, vegetables, cotton, turf and ornamentals. It is used in Apistan? to control varroa mites in honey bees.

Pyrethroid insecticide used as a broad spectrum insecticide to control moths, beetles and other pests on cereals, potatoes, fruit trees, vegetables, fleas, cot ton, turf and ornamentals. It is also used to control varroa mites in honey bees. Some applications may be classified as a United States Environmental Protection Agency Restricted Use Pesticide (RUP). Formerly used as an insec ticide. Production discontinued by Sandoz Agro, Inc. Incompatibilities: Corrosive to some metals. Keep away from strong oxidizers and alkaline materials. Decomposes in temperatures above 350℃ releasing toxic vapors of hydrogen chloride, nitrogen oxides, and hydrogen fluoride.

If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove any contact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts the skin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediately with soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately.If this chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure, begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions) if breathing has stopped, and CPR if heart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medical facility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention. Do not induce vomiting when formulations containing petroleum solvents are ingested. Otherwise, give large quantities of water and induce vomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit.

UN2902 Pesticides, liquid, toxic, n.o.s., Hazard Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials, Technical Name Required. UN3077 Environmentally hazardous substances, solid, n.o.s., Hazard class: 9; Labels: 9-Miscellaneous hazardous material, Technical Name Required.

Fluvalinate is a viscous amber oil with a moderate or weak sweetish odor (technical grade)

Incineration would be an effective disposal procedure where permitted. If an efficient incinerator is not available, the product should be mixed with large amounts of combustible material and contact with the smoke should be avoided. In accordance with 40CFR165, follow recommendations for the disposal of pesticides and pesticide containers.

ChEBI:Fluvalinate is an organochlorine insecticide, an organochlorine acaricide, an organofluorine insecticide, an organofluorine acaricide, a member of monochlorobenzenes, a nitrile, a member of (trifluoromethyl)benzenes and an aromatic ether. It has a role as a pyrethroid ester insecticide, a pyrethroid ester acaricide and an agrochemical. It is functionally related to a valine.

Metabolism of 14C-fluvalinate by chickens produces 3-phenoxybenzoic acid, which is further degraded by two pathways. The first pathway involves O-dephenylation and is the major metabolic route. The second pathway converts the carboxylic metabolites into four conjugates of benzoylornithine together with the conjugate of acetylornithine. The predominant conjugate is 2N-(3-hydroxybenzoyl)-5N- benzoylornithine.
