Physical state：
Dichlone is a yellow crystalline solid dissolved in a water-emulsifiable liquid carrier. Can cause illness by inhalation, skin absorption and/or ingestion. The primary hazard is the threat to the environment. Immediate steps should be taken to limit its spread to the environment. Can easily penetrate the soil and contaminate groundwater and nearby streams. Used as a fungicide.

Possibility of hazardous reactions
DICHLONE is a halogenated ketone. Ketones are reactive with many acids and bases liberating heat and flammable gases (e.g., H2). The amount of heat may be sufficient to start a fire in the unreacted portion of the ketone. Ketones react with reducing agents such as hydrides, alkali metals, and nitrides to produce flammable gas (H2) and heat. Ketones are incompatible with isocyanates, aldehydes, cyanides, peroxides, and anhydrides. They react violently with aldehydes, HNO3, HNO3 + H2O2, and HClO4.
Conditions to avoid
no data available
Incompatible materials
Incompatible with petroleum oils, dinitro compounds, organomercury compounds, calcium arsenate, lime sulfur, Bordeaux mixture, nicotine, and emulsifiable concentrate formulations.
Hazardous decomposition products
When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of /hydrogen chloride/.

Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: Dichlone is considered to be resistant to degradation according to the biodegradability test of the Japanese Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) which utilizes an inoculum derived from soil, surface water and sewage(1). Utilizing an initial dichlone concentration of 100 mg/L and a 14-day incubation period, the average BOD 0-5%(2).
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated for dichlone(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 2.65(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
Dichlone has been shown to be immobile in silty clay loam using soil thin layer chromatography as well as in soil columns and in soil drench tests(1). In one field test in which 0.4 lb/acre of active compound was applied to the soil in an apple orchard, 0.7 ppm dichlone was detected at 4-6 inch depth during the growing season. However the analytic method lacked sensitivity and results were erratic. None of the chemical survived to the next growing season(2).
Other adverse effects
no data available
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
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.
