Fires involving this material can be controlled with a dry chemical, carbon dioxide or Halon extinguisher. (NTP, 1992)
Flash point data for this chemical are not available. It is probably combustible. (NTP, 1992)
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing mist, gas or vapours.Avoid contacting with skin and eye. Use personal protective equipment.Wear chemical impermeable gloves. Ensure adequate ventilation.Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.
Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Absorb the spills with paper towels or the like materials. Place in hood to evaporate. Dispose by burning the towel.
Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
Safe Storage of Pesticides. Always store pesticides in their original containers, complete with labels that list ingredients, directions for use, and first aid steps in case of accidental poisoning. Never store pesticides in cabinets with or near food, animal feed, or medical supplies. Do not store pesticides in places where flooding is possible or in places where they might spill or leak into wells, drains, ground water, or surface water.

Ensure adequate ventilation. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Set up emergency exits and the risk-elimination area.
Wear tightly fitting safety goggles with side-shields conforming to EN 166(EU) or NIOSH (US).
Wear fire/flame resistant and impervious clothing. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.
If the exposure limits are exceeded, irritation or other symptoms are experienced, use a full-face respirator.

Sensitive to exposure to light, air, and moisture. Reacts with water or steam to produce toxic and corrosive fumes.
The dry crystals [combined available chlorine 77.6% (theory)] may be stored without much loss of available chlorine.
It is/ combustible with evolution of chlorine at 210 deg C.1,3-DICHLORO-5,5-DIMETHYLHYDANTOIN reacts violently with xylene. It is incompatible with strong acids, easily oxidized materials, ammonia salts and sulfides. It will react with water or steam to produce toxic and corrosive fumes. At a pH of 9, it decomposes completely. (NTP, 1992)
no data available
Water, strong acids, easily oxidized materials such as ammonia salts & sulfides.
When heated to decomposition it emits toxic vapors of /nitrogen oxide and hydrogen chloride/.

An estimated BCF of 19 was calculated for 1,3-dichloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin(SRC), using water solubility of 500 mg/L(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low.
The Koc of 1,3-dichloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin is estimated as 140(SRC) using a water solubility of 500 mg/L(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 1,3-dichloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin is expected to have high mobility in soil.

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
