10.Stability and reactivity

10.1 Reactivity

no data available

10.2 Chemical stability

Stable under recommended storage conditions.

10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactions

Flammable & explosive when exposed to heat or flame.Ketones, such as ISOPHORONE, are reactive with many acids and bases liberating heat and flammable gases (e.g., H2). The amount of heat may be sufficient to start a fire in the unreacted portion of the ketone. Ketones react with reducing agents such as hydrides, alkali metals, and nitrides to produce flammable gas (H2) and heat. Ketones are incompatible with isocyanates, aldehydes, cyanides, peroxides, and anhydrides. They react violently with aldehydes, HNO3, HNO3 + H2O2, and HClO4. Forms explosive peroxides

12.Ecological information

12.1 Toxicity

  • Toxicity to fish: LC50 Pimephales promelas (fathead minnow) 145-255 mg/l/96 hr, flow through exposure. /From table
  • Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: EC50 Daphnia magna (water flea) 117 mg/l/48 hr, static exposure, immobilization.
  • Toxicity to algae: no data available
  • Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available

12.2 Persistence and degradability

AEROBIC: Isophorone, present at 100 mg/l, reached 3% of its theoretical BOD in 2 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/l and the Japanese MITI test(1). Removal of isophorone from unacclimated fresh and salt water seeded with settled domestic wastewater was 42 and 9%, respectively, after 20 days(3). Removal of isophorone from wastewater treated by various different biological treatment processes: trickling filter, activated sludge, aerated lagoon, and facultative lagoon was 19, 98, 24, and 30%, respectively(4); therefore this compound is not expected to biodegrade rapidly(SRC). A 100% loss was observed when 5 and 10 mg/l isophorone underwent a 7-day static incubation in the dark at 25°C under aerobic conditions using settled domestic wastewater as inoculum(2). Using a multi-level respirometric test protocol employing a sludge microbiota, a half-life of 25 days for 100 mg test compound was determined(5).

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential

A BCF of 7 was measured for isophorone in bluegill sunfish(1). The half-life of isophorone in fish tissue was found to be 1 day(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).

12.4 Mobility in soil

The Koc of isophorone is estimated as 200(SRC), using a log Kow of 1.7(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that isophorone is expected to have moderate mobility in soil.

12.5 Other adverse effects

no data available

13.Disposal considerations

13.1 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.
