Sweep spilled substance into sealable containers. Carefully collect remainder, then remove to safe place.

Environmental considerations - and spill: Dig a pit, pond, lagoon, holding area to contain liquid or solid material. /SRP: If time permits, pits, ponds, lagoons, soak holes, or holding areas should be sealed with an impermeable flexible membrane liner./ Cover solids with a plastic sheet to prevent dissolving in rain or fire fighting water. Dike surface flow using soil, sand bags, foamed polyurethane, or foamed concrete.

Environmental considerations - water spill: Use natural barriers or oil spill control booms to limit spill travel. Use natural deep water pockets, excavated lagoons, or sand bag barriers to trap material at bottom. Remove trapped material with suction hoses.

SRP: The most favorable course of action is to use an alternative chemical product with less inherent propensity for occupational exposure or environmental contamination. Recycle any unused portion of the material for its approved use or return it to the manufacturer or supplier. Ultimate disposal of the chemical must consider: the material's impact on air quality; potential migration in soil or water; effects on animal, aquatic, and plant life; and conformance with environmental and public health regulations.

THE BASIC VENTILATION METHODS ARE LOCAL EXHAUST VENTILATION AND DILUTION OR GENERAL VENTILATION.

If material not on fire and not involved in fire: Keep sparks, flames, and other sources of ignition away. Keep material out of water sources and sewers.

Personnel protection: Avoid breathing dusts, and fumes from burning material. Avoid bodily contact with the material. ... If contact with the material anticipated, wear appropriate chemical protective clothing.

SRP: The scientific literature for the use of contact lenses in industry is conflicting. The benefit or detrimental effects of wearing contact lenses depend not only upon the substance, but also on factors including the form of the substance, characteristics and duration of the exposure, the uses of other eye protection equipment, and the hygiene of the lenses. However, there may be individual substances whose irritating or corrosive properties are such that the wearing of contact lenses would be harmful to the eye. In those specific cases, contact lenses should not be worn. In any event, the usual eye protection equipment should be worn even when contact lenses are in place.

Water-Reactive

CYANURIC CHLORIDE reacts rapidly and exothermically with water to generate hydrogen chloride. A mixture with water in an industrial reactor with refrigeration turned off developed pressure that blew gaskets and filled the building with flammable vapors. An explosion occurred when the vapors were ignited [MCA Case History 1869(1972)]. Runaway reactions have occurred with acetone/water; methanol/water, ethoxyethanol/water, allyl alcohol/sodium hydroxide/water, 2-butanone/sodium hydroxide/water, and methanol/sodium bicarbonate [Loss Prev. Bull., 1979, (25), 21]. Reacts with methanol to give gaseous methyl chloride. Reacts rapidly with bicarbonates to generate gaseous carbon dioxide. Reacts vigorously with dimethyl formamide (DMF) to form carbon dioxide after a deceptive induction period [BCISC Quart. Safety Summ., 1960, 35, 24]. Can react with reducing agents to generate heat and products that may be gaseous (causing pressurization of closed containers). The products may themselves be capable of further reactions (such as combustion in the air).

Reacts violently with water producing cyanuric acid, hydrochloric acid and heat. Reacts with methanol, dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide and 2-ethoxyethanol.

Cyanuric chloride reacts vigorously and exothermically with dimethylformamide after a deceptively long induction period. The 1:1 adduct initially formed decomposes above 60 °C with evolution of carbon dioxide and formation of a dimeric unsaturated quarternary ammonium salt.

/HUMAN EXPOSURE STUDIES/ In human volunteers, the 1-min threshold irritation effect of inhaled cyanuric chloride was found to be 0.3 mg/cu m.

/SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS/ ...HAS SEVERE IRRITANT EFFECT ON EYES & RESP PASSAGES, BUT LESS EFFECT ON SKIN. SENSITIVITY & CHRONIC ECZEMA HAVE BEEN OBSERVED.

/CASE REPORTS/ Cyanuric chloride is a lachrymator and an irritant to the eyes and nose. Exposure of a laboratory assistant to a small amount of vapor resulted in rash on the neck and behind the ears with irritation.

/CASE REPORTS/ An, in general, healthy male (age 54) was exposed to cyanuric chloride during an inspection in a factory where herbicides were produced. Cyanuric chloride (one of the basic materials) was accidentally released, because a vessel got broken. The man was totally submerged under the powder. Signs of intoxication consisted of irritation of the skin, eyes and pharynx, followed by serious obstructive pulmonary syndrome with impairment of alveolar capillary exchanges. No effects on the heart function were seen (although a slightly abnormal ECG was reported from an pre-exposure investigation). The man recovered within 20 days.

/BIOMONITORING/ 39 workers with known history of long-term exposure to cyanuric chloride (between 1 and 22 years) were investigated. Investigations included anamnesis, physical examination (with special attention to lungs, skin and eyes), lung function (forced expiratory volume) and blood pressure measurements. Medical records of another 21 workers previously exposed to incidental high concentrations, who had changed jobs in the mean time, were checked. Determination of concentrations at the workplace. Samples (30-60 min) were taken during the filling procedure (worst case) and during normal production procedures (both room and personal monitoring). The samples were analyzed after adsorption tosilicagel, desorption with H2SO4, hydrolysis to cyanuric acid (70 min at 70 °C) and analysis of the cyanuric acid by HPLC with UV detection. No effects on any of the measured parameters were found. FEV was within normal ranges. Accidental acute exposure to high doses of cyanuric chloride was reported to lead to irritation/corrosion of the conjunctiva and skin irritation. After inhalation of the test substance coughing, breathing problems and shortness of breath were seen. These effects disappeared completely after a short time and did not result in persisting problems. Measured concentrations were 7.09 = or - 9.22 ug/cu m, 4.43 = or - 2.72 ug/cu m and 92.76 = or - 147.52 cu m, for filling, room and personal monitoring, respectively.

/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ INHALATION STUDIES WITH THE DUST HAVE SHOWN THE 4-HR LC50 IN RATS IS 25 MG/CU M (20.4% RESPIRABLE PARTICLES, LESS THAN 10 UM IN DIAMETER) & 2-HR LC50 IN MICE IS 10 MG/CU M WITH THE THRESHOLD FOR CNS DISTURBANCES BEING 0.6 MG/CU M.

/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ Cyanuric chloride was administered by oral gavage to Charles River CD albino rats for 5 days. Dosage levels and mortality data are as follows: 0 (0/5 M, 0/5 F), 10 (0/5 M, 0/5 F), 20 (0/5 M, 0/5 F), 40 (0/5 M, 1/5 F), 80 (2/5 M, 4/5 F), 160 (4/5 M, 4/5 F), and 320 mg/kg/day (5/5 M, 5/5 F). Clinical signs at 20 mg/kg/day included rales, excessive salivation, and/or gasping. At 40 mg/kg/day, toxicity consisted of rales, excessive salivation, labored breathing, gasping, coolness to touch, decreased motor activity, brown material around mouth/nose, and moist areas of yellow material. At 20 mg/kg/day, a significant reduction in body weights and food consumption was noted for all rats. Pathological findings at that level, included lesions consisting of a dark discoloration, hemorrhages, erosions, and/or ulcerations in the glandular and nonglandular areas of the stomach.

/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ When applied to the skin of rabbits, cyanuric chloride produced severe skin irritation, but no deaths and no evidence of resorption or systemic toxicity, even at doses up to 10 g/kg.

/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ Cyanuric chloride was administered via inhalation to male and female albino rats of the Tif: RAIf (SPF) strain for 4 hr. Concentration levels and mortality data are as follows: 0.0 (0/10 M, 0/10 F), 5.0 (0/9 M, 0/9 F), 7.0 (0/9 M, 0/9 F), 18.4 (1/9 M, 0/9 F), 40.5 (6/9 M, 0/9 F), 108 (9/9 M, 6/9 F), and 495 mg/cu m (9/9 M, 9/9F). Clinical signs included a dose-related increase in dyspnea, chromodacryorrhea, rhinorrhea, cyanosis, diarrhea, tremors, and ruffled fur as well as lateral, ventral and curved body position. A significant decrease in body weights was noted in both sexes at 40.5 mg/cu m and depressed body weights and weight gains at 108 mg/ cu m. Pathological findings revealed an area of discoloration of the lungs in all exposure groups. At 40.5 mg/cu m, enlarged or edematous lungs in 6/9 males was present, and similar findings were noted in 7/9 males and 6/9 females in the 495 mg/cu m group. Also noted was dilation of the stomach in 1 male in the 108 mg/cu m group and for females was 88 mg/cu m group.

Clinical findings included a dose-related increased in hypoactivity, ruffled fur, labored breathing, muscular weakness, lacrimation, and prostration. Necropsy findings revealed severe chemical burns in the stomach lining, duodenum, and the lobe of the liver adjacent to the stomach. The animal dosed with 300 mg/kg revealed necrotic tissue in the stomach lining. The test substance was determined to be slightly to moderately toxic. The LD50 was determined to be greater than 300 mg/kg and less than 1000 mg/kg.

Cyanuryl chloride (CAS# 108-77-0) was evaluated for acute inhalation toxicity. The test substance was administered via inhalation to male and female albino rats of the Tif: RAIf (SPF) strain for 4-hours. Concentration levels and mortality data are as follows: 0.0 (0/10 M, 0/10 F); 5.0 (0/9 M, 0/9 F); 7.0 (0/9 M, 0/9 F); 18.4 (1/9 M, 0/9 F); 40.5 (6/9 M, 0/9 F); 108 (9/9 M, 6/9 F); and 495 mg/m3 (9/9 M, 9/9 F). Clinical signs included a dose-related increase in dyspnea, chromodacryorrhea, rhinorrhea, cyanosis, diarrhea, tremors and ruffled fur as well as lateral, ventral, and curved body position. A significant decrease in body weights was noted in both sexes at 40.5 mg/cu m, and depressed body weights and weight gains at 108 mg/cu m. Pathological findings revealed an area of discoloration of the lungs in all exposure groups. At 40.5 mg/cu m, enlarged or edematous lungs in 6/9 males was present, and similar findings were noted in 7/9 males and 6/9 females in the 495 mg/cu m group. Also noted was dilation of the stomach in 1 male in the 108 mg/cu m groups and 1 animal of each sex in the 495 mg/cu m group. The LC50 for males was 35 mg/cu m, and for females was 88 mg/cu m. The test substance was determined to be very toxic when administered to rats by the inhalation route.

Cyanuryl chloride (CAS# 108-77-0) was evaluated for subchronic oral toxicity. The test substance was administered by oral gavage to Charles River CD albino rats for 5-days. Dosage levels and mortality data are as follows: 0 (0/5 M, 0/5 F); 10 (0/5 M, 0/5 F); 20 (0/5 M, 0/5 F); 40 (0/5 M, 1/5 F); 80 (2/5 M, 4/5 F); 160 (4/5 M, 4/5 F); and 320 mg/kg/day (5/5 M, 5/5 F). Clinical signs at 20 mg/kg/day included rales, excessive salivation and/or gasping. At 40 mg/kg/day and above, toxicity consisted of rales, excessive salivation, labored breathing, gasping, cool to touch, decreased motor activity, brown material around mouth/nose, and moist areas of yellow material. At 20 mg/kg/day and above, a significant reduction in body weights and food consumption was noted for all rats. Pathological findings at 20 mg/kg/day and above, included lesions consisting of a dark discoloration, hemorrhages, erosions, and/or ulcerations in the glandular and nonglandular areas of the stomach.

Cyanuric chloride (108-77-0) was evaluated for developmental effects in groups of 25 female Charles River rats exposed to the test substance by gavage on days 6 through 19 of gestation at dose levels of 0, 5, 25, and 50 mg/kg/day. All rats survived to sacrifice on day 20 except one animal at 25 mg/kg/day which died due to an intubation error. Animals at 50 mg/kg/day showed a slight decrease in group mean maternal body weight gain when compared to controls. The high dose group showed a significantly lower value for viable fetus/dam than the control group. Treatment had no affect on the incidence of malformations or developmental variations in any of the treated groups when compared with the control group.

Cyanuric chloride's production and use as a precursor in the synthesis of herbicides and insecticides, optical brighteners, dyes, and plastics may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams. If released to air, an estimated vapor pressure of 0.023 mm Hg at 25 °C indicates cyanuric chloride will exist solely in the vapor phase in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase cyanuric chloride is degraded slowly in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 4,300 days. Cyanuric chloride does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm and therefore is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight. If released to soil, cyanuric chloride is expected to have high mobility based upon an estimated Koc of 120. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 4.9X10-7 atm-cu m/mole. Volatilization from dry soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process given the estimated vapor pressure of cyanuric chloride. If released to water, cyanuric chloride is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids or sediment in the water column based upon the estimated Koc value. Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important environmental fate process given the estimated Henry's Law constant. Hydrolysis is the dominant environmental fate process for cyanuric chloride. A suspension of cyanuric chloride in ice water was stable for about 12 hours; however, at 30 °C, over 40% hydrolyzed to cyanuric acid within 1 hour. Complete anaerobic degradation of 250-500 uM of cyanuric chloride solutions incorporated into a methanogenic aquifer slurry was observed after a one year time period; however, the likely mechanism of degradation was hydrolytic dehalogenation rather than microbial degradation. An estimated BCF value of 2, as well as the rapid rate of hydrolysis, suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. Occupational exposure may occur through dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where cyanuric chloride is produced or used. (SRC)

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), cyanuric chloride, which has an estimated vapor pressure of 0.023 mm Hg at 25 °C(SRC), determined from a fragment constant estimation method(2), will exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere.

The rate constant for the vapor-phase reaction of cyanuric chloride with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals has been estimated as 3.7X10-15 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) using a structure estimation method(1). This corresponds to an atmospheric half-life of about 4,300 days at an atmospheric concentration of 5X10+5 hydroxyl radicals per cu cm(1).
