SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

Decomposes on burning. This produces toxic fumes including nitrogen oxides. The substance is a strong base. It reacts violently with acid and is corrosive. Reacts with strong oxidants. Attacks many metals.

Chemical stability

no data available

Possibility of hazardous reactions

Moderate, when exposed to heat or flame; can react with oxidizing materials.METHYLETHANOLAMINE is an aminoalcohol. Amines are chemical bases. They neutralize acids to form salts plus water. These acid-base reactions are exothermic. The amount of heat that is evolved per mole of amine in a neutralization is largely independent of the strength of the amine as a base. Amines may be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is generated by amines in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides. This compound may react with oxidizing materials. (NTP, 1992)

Conditions to avoid

no data available

Incompatible materials

Flammable when exposed to heat flame or oxidizing materials.

Hazardous decomposition products

When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of /nitrogen oxides/.

SECTION 12: Ecological information

Toxicity

  • Toxicity to fish: LC50 - Danio rerio (previous name: Brachydanio rerio) - > 100 mg/L - 96 h.
  • Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: EC50 - Daphnia magna - 33 mg/L - 48 h.
  • Toxicity to algae: EC50 - Desmodesmus subspicatus (previous name: Scenedesmus subspicatus) - 28.1 mg/L - 72 h.
  • Toxicity to microorganisms: EC20 - activated sludge, domestic - > 1 000 mg/L - 30 min.

Persistence and degradability

AEROBIC: 2-Methylaminoethanol, present at 100 mg/L, reached 68% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L and the Japanese MITI test(1).

Bioaccumulative potential

An estimated BCF of 3.2 was calculated for 2-methylaminoethanol(SRC), using a log Kow of -0.94(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(SRC).

Mobility in soil

The Koc of 2-methylaminoethanol is estimated as 7.3(SRC), using a log Kow of -0.94(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 2-methylaminoethanol is expected to have very high mobility in soil. The pKa of 2-methylaminoethanol is 9.95(4), indicating that this compound will primarily exist in the cation form in the environment and cations generally adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(5).

Other adverse effects

no data available

SECTION 13: Disposal considerations

Disposal methods

Product

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.

Contaminated packaging

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.
