Insecticides containing 4-dimethylamino-3,5-xylyl-n-methylcarbamate.

Общее описание

ZECTRAN is an odorless white crystalline solid dissolved in a liquid carrier. ZECTRAN is toxic by inhalation, skin absorption, and/or ingestion. When heated to high temperatures ZECTRAN may emit toxic oxides of nitrogen. ZECTRAN will burn but ZECTRAN is difficult to ignite. ZECTRAN is used as a pesticide.

Профиль реактивности

ZECTRAN is a carbamate ester-amine. Amines behave as chemical bases. Carbamates are chemically similar to, but more reactive than amides. Like amides they form polymers such as polyurethane resins. Carbamates are incompatible with strong acids and bases, and especially incompatible with strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is produced by the combination of active metals or nitrides with carbamates. Strongly oxidizing acids, peroxides, and hydroperoxides are incompatible with carbamates.

Опасность

Toxic by ingestion.

Угроза здоровью

Extremely toxic: probable oral lethal dose for humans is 5-50 mg/kg; between 7 drops and 1 teaspoonful for 70 kg person (150 lb.). (Non-Specific -- Carbamate Pesticide, Solid, n.o.s.) Poisonous; may be fatal if inhaled, swallowed, or absorbed through skin. Contact may cause burns to skin and eyes.

Пожароопасность

(Non-Specific -- Carbamate Pesticide, Solid, n.o.s.) Fire may produce irritating or poisonous gases. ZECTRAN may burn but does not ignite readily. Container may explode in heat of fire. When heated to decomposition ZECTRAN emits toxic fumes of nitrogen oxides. Avoid decomposition in highly alkaline media. Subject to photo-decomposition in the solid state.
