Depending on purity, a bright yellow or brownish-yellow crystalline solid or powder. Odorless. Soluble in water
The ethanolamine salt as a molluscicide.
Yellow solid. Insoluble in water.
Niclosamide ethanolamine salt is hydrolyzed by concentrated acid or alkali.
Flash point data for Niclosamide ethanolamine salt are not available. Niclosamide ethanolamine salt is probably combustible.
Molluscicide: Niclosamide, the parent chemical, is a relatively
selective, non-cumulative chlorinated aromatic amide pesticide. Clonitralid (ethanolamine salt of Niclosamide) is
used principally against molluscs, especially fresh water
snails and to control sea lamprey larvae and also as an antiparasitic drug in human, pets and livestock. Niclosamide is
toxic to all fish species at 0.5 mg/L (48 hours). A U.S. EPA
restricted Use Pesticide as Niclosamide. Limited to use by
a certified applicator [40 CFR 152.175 (a) (7/1/94)]. Not
listed for use in EU countries. Registered for use in
the U.S.

UN2588 Pesticides, solid, toxic, Hazard Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials, Technical Name Required. UN2902 Pesticides, liquid, toxic, n.o.s., Hazard Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials, Technical Name Required.
Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions. Keep away from alkaline materials, strong bases, strong acids, oxoacids, epoxides. Hydrolyzed by strong acids, and alkalies. Slowly hydrolyzes in water, releasing ammonia and forming acetate salts. Decomposes at B200-205°C.
Do not discharge into drains or sewers. Containers must be disposed of properly by following package label directions or by contacting your local or federal environmental control agency, or by contacting your regional EPA office. Burn in incinerator specifically designed for pesticide disposal or dispose as a hazardous waste in a landfill approved and licensed for the disposal of pesticides. Consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices. Ultimate disposal of the chemical must consider: the material’s impact on air quality; potential migration in soil or water; effects on animal, aquatic, and plant life; and conformance with environmental and public health regulations
