Rinse mouth.
ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: This compound may cause irritation on contact. (NTP, 1992)
Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand-valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR as necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. Esters and related compounds

DICYCLOHEXYL PHTHALATE is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides. This compound reacts with oxidizers. It hydrolyzes under acid and basic conditions. (NTP, 1992)

Strong oxidizing agents
Thermal decomposition products of dicyclohexyl phthalate (major constituent of the film label adhesive are cyclohexanol, cyclohexyl ether, phthalic anhydride and cyclohexyl benzoate.

A harmful contamination of the air will not or will only very slowly be reached on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.
AEROBIC: Dicyclohexyl phthalate, present at 100 mg/L, reached 68.5% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test(1). Dicyclohexyl phthalate had an average aerobic biodegradation half-life of 11.1 days calculated in 6 river sediment samples taken from Taiwan rivers(2). Dicyclohexyl phthalate present at 3,000 ppm, exhibited a biodegradation half-life of 4 days at 30 deg C using the soil microbe Pseudomonas acidovorans 256-1, in media containing 6000 ppm phthalate esters; phthalic acid and cyclohexyl alcohol were produced(3).
An estimated BCF of 5750 was calculated in fish for dicyclohexyl phthalate(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 6.2(1) and a regression-derived equation(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is very high(SRC). However, bioconcentration studies on compounds which are structurally similar suggest that bioconcentration may be lower than that indicated by the regression-derived equations due to the ability of aquatic organisms to readily metabolize this class of compounds(3).
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the log Koc of dicyclohexyl phthalate can be estimated to be 4.12(SRC). An estimated log Koc of 4.47 was reported for dicyclohexyl phthalate(2). According to a classification scheme(3), these log Koc values suggest that dicyclohexyl phthalate is expected to be immobile 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.
