SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

Decomposes on heating. This produces toxic and corrosive fumes of hydrogen chloride and hydrogen fluoride. Attacks some plastics and rubber.

Chemical stability

no data available

Possibility of hazardous reactions

The vapour is heavier than air and may accumulate in lowered spaces causing a deficiency of oxygen.The material ENFLURANE is incompatible with the following oxidizing materials, peroxides, combustible materials. Although nonflammable, a fire may cause enflurane to decompose to toxic compounds including phosgene, hydrogen chloride, and hydrogen fluoride. Decomposes slowly in the light.

Conditions to avoid

no data available

Incompatible materials

Volatile with anesthetic properties, but non-flammable.

Hazardous decomposition products

Hazardous decomposition products formed under fire conditions. - Carbon oxides, hydrogen chloride gas, hydrogen fluoride.

  • Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: no data available
  • Toxicity to algae: no data available
  • Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available

Persistence and degradability

no data available

Bioaccumulative potential

An estimated BCF of 11 was calculated in fish for enflurane(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.10(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 enflurane is estimated as 100(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.10(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that enflurane is expected to have high mobility in soil.

Other adverse effects

no data available

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.
