Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Human abdominal whole skin (2.54 cm sq) was mounted in a glass diffusion apparatus (at 30 +/- 1 degree C) and the diffusion of triethylene glycol monobutyl ether was monitored during a 12-hr period using gas chromatography (n=6). The integrity of the epidermal membranes was first assessed by measuring permeability of membranes to tritiated water. Epidermal membranes displaying permeability constants greater than 1.5 x 10E-3 cm/hr were deemed to have been damaged during preparation and were rejected. The mean steady state of absorption for triethylene glycol monobutyl ether was 22.2 ug/cm sq/hr (SD +/- 8.59), which was 100-fold less than that of ethylene glycol monomethyl ether. Test material did not increase permeability of the membrane (damage ratio of 1.26).

Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: The theoretical BODs for triethylene glycol monobutyl ether are 0, 5, and 24% for 5 days, 10 days, and 20 days, respectively, indicating that it will be partially removed from biological wastewater treatment plants(1).
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for triethylene glycol monobutyl ether(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 0.02(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
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of triethylene glycol monobutyl ether can be estimated to be 10(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that triethylene glycol monobutyl ether is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC).
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.
