Pirimiphos ethyl Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

Pirimifos-ethyl is a straw-colored liquid

Uses

Pirimiphos Ethyl is a pesticide used in the protection of crops. Insecticide.

Definition

ChEBI: Pirimiphos-ethyl is an organic thiophosphate.

General Description

Straw colored liquid. Used as a pesticide.

Reactivity Profile

Organophosphates, such as Pirimiphos ethyl, are susceptible to formation of highly toxic and flammable phosphine gas in the presence of strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Partial oxidation by oxidizing agents may result in the release of toxic phosphorus oxides.

Health Hazard

Pirimiphos ethyl is an organophosphorus pesticide and is absorbed by the skin, as well as by the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts. It is a cholinesterase inhibitor, acting on the nervous system.

Fire Hazard

As with other organophosphorus pesticides, container may explode in heat of fire. Heat may cause decomposition and evolution of highly toxic fumes of phosphorus oxides, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides. Decomposes above 266F.

Potential Exposure

A potential danger to those involved in the manufacture, formulation and application of this organophosphate soil insecticide.

Shipping

In accordance with 40CFR165, follow recommendations for the disposal of pesticides and pesticide containers. Must be disposed properly by following package label directions or by contacting your local or federal environmental control agency, or by contacting your regional EPA office.

Incompatibilities

Move victim to fresh air. Call 911 or emergency medical service. Give artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; give artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. In case of contact with substance, immediately flush skin or eyes with running water for at least 20 minutes. For minor skin contact, avoid spreading material on unaffected skin. Keep victim warm and quiet. Effects of exposure (inhalation, ingestion or skin contact) to substance may be delayed. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take precautions to protect themselves. Medical observation is recommended for 24
48 hours after breathing overexposure, as pulmonary edema may be delayed. As first aid for pulmonary edema, a doctor or authorized paramedic may consider administering a drug or other inhalation therapy.
