SECTION 9: Physical and chemical properties and safety characteristics

  • Physical state:

    Octadecylamine is a white solid. Insoluble in water and less dense than water. Hence floats on water. Contact may irritate skin, eyes and mucous membranes. May be toxic by ingestion. Used to make other chemicals.

Possibility of hazardous reactions

OCTADECYLAMINE neutralizes acids in exothermic reactions to form salts plus water. May be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen may be generated in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.

Persistence and degradability

A 32& of theoretical BOD using an activated sludge inoculum was observed for octadecylamine over a 15-day incubation period(1), suggesting that biodegradation may be rapid in the environment(SRC).

Bioaccumulative potential

An estimated log BCF of 5.6 was calculated for octadecylamine(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 7.7(1,SRC) 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 octadecylamine is estimated as approximately 3.198X10+5(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 7.7(1,SRC) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that octadecylamine is expected to be immobile in soil(SRC).

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.
