International Chemical Safety Cards PHENOL ICSC: 0070 Carbolic acid Phenic acid Hydroxybenzene C6H6O / C6H5OH Molecular mass: 94.1 ICSC #    0070 CAS #     108-95-2 RTECS # SJ3325000 UN #        1671 EC #         604-001-00-2 October 15, 2001 Peer reviewed TYPES OF HAZARD/ EXPOSURE ACUTE HAZARDS/ SYMPTOMS PREVENTION FIRST AID/ FIRE FIGHTING FIRE Combustible. NO open flames. NO contact with strong oxidants. Alcohol-resistant foam, powder, water spray, foam, carbon dioxide. EXPLOSION Above 79°C explosive vapour/air mixtures may be formed. Above 79°C use a closed system, ventilation. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water. EXPOSURE AVOID ALL CONTACT! IN ALL CASES CONSULT A DOCTOR!  •INHALATION Sore throat. Burning sensation. Cough. Dizziness. Headache. Nausea. Vomiting. Shortness of breath. Laboured breathing. Unconsciousness. Symptoms may be delayed (see Notes). Avoid inhalation of fine dust and mist. Ventilation, local exhaust, or breathing protection. Fresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Refer for medical attention.  •SKIN EASILY ABSORBED. Serious skin burns. Numbness. Convulsion. Collapse. Coma. Death. Protective gloves. Protective clothing. Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. To remove substance use polyethylene glycol 300 or vegetable oil. Refer for medical attention. Wear protective gloves when administering first aid.  •EYES Pain. Redness. Permanent loss of vision. Severe deep burns. Face shield, or eye protection in combination with breathing protection. First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor.  •INGESTION Corrosive. Abdominal pain. Convulsions. Diarrhoea. Shock or collapse. Sore throat. Smoky, greenish-dark urine. Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Wash hands before eating. Rinse mouth. Give plenty of water to drink. Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer for medical attention. SPILLAGE DISPOSAL STORAGE PACKAGING & LABELLING Sweep spilled substance into sealable containers; if appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting. Carefully collect remainder, then remove to safe place. Personal protection: complete protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Provision to contain effluent from fire extinguishing. Separated from strong oxidants, food and feedstuffs . Dry. Well closed. Keep in a well-ventilated room. Do not transport with food and feedstuffs.

International Chemical Safety Cards PHENOL ICSC: 0070 I M P O R T A N T D A T A PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE: COLOURLESS TO YELLOW OR LIGHT PINK CRYSTALS , WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR. PHYSICAL DANGERS: CHEMICAL DANGERS: Upon heating, toxic fumes are formed. The solution in water is a weak acid. Reacts with oxidants causing fire and explosion hazard. OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: TLV: 5 ppm as TWA; (skin); A4; BEI issued; (ACGIH 2004). MAK: H; Carcinogen category: 3B; (DFG 2004). OSHA PEL: TWA 5 ppm (19 mg/m3) skin NIOSH REL: TWA 5 ppm (19 mg/m3) C 15.6 ppm (60 mg/m3) 15-minute skin NIOSH IDLH: 250 ppm ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: The substance can be absorbed into the body rapidly by inhalation of its vapour, through the skin and by ingestion. INHALATION RISK: A harmful contamination of the air will be reached rather slowly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C. EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The substance and the vapour is corrosive to the eyes, the skin and the respiratory tract. Inhalation of vapour may cause lung oedema (see Notes). The substance may cause effects on the central nervous system , heart and kidneys , resulting in convulsions, coma, cardiac disordersrespiratory failure, collapse. Exposure may result in death. The effects may be delayed. Medical observation is indicated. EFFECTS OF LONG-TERM OR REPEATED EXPOSURE: Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may cause dermatitis. The substance may have effects on the liver and kidneys . PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Boiling point: 182°C Melting point: 43°C Density: 1.06 g/cm3 Solubility in water: moderate Vapour pressure, Pa at 20°C: 47 Relative vapour density (air = 1): 3.2 Relative density of the vapour/air-mixture at 20°C (air = 1): 1.001 Flash point: 79°C c.c. Auto-ignition temperature: 715°C Explosive limits, vol% in air: 1.36-10 Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 1.46 ENVIRONMENTAL DATA The substance is toxic to aquatic organisms. N O T E S Other UN numbers: 2312 (molten); 2821 (solution). Use of alcoholic beverages enhances the harmful effect. Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is suggested. The symptoms of lung oedema often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation are therefore essential. Immediate administration of an appropriate inhalation therapy by a doctor or a person authorized by him/her, should be considered. Card has been partly updated in October 2004.
