| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
Colorless crystals. Slightly corrosive to iron. A chlorinated phenoxy herbicide. Soluble in organic solvents. | [Reactivity Profile]
2,4-DB is an organic acid. Neutralizes bases in exothermic reactions. Forms water soluble metal and amine salts. Hard water precipitates the calcium and magnesium salts from aqueous solutions of such salts. | [Potential Exposure]
2,4-DB is a chlorophenoxy/arylox-
yalkanoic acid selective systemic herbicide used to control
annual and perennial broadleaf weeds in many field crops
such as alfalfa, peanuts, cereals and soybeans; used as a
defoliant. In the plant, the compound changes to 2,4-D and
inhibits growth at the tips of stems and roots. | [First aid]
If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove any
contact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least
15 minutes, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek
medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts the
skin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediately
with soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately.
If this chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,
begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions) if
breathing has stopped, and CPR if heart action has stopped.Transfer promptly to a medical facility. When this chemical
has been swallowed, get medical attention. Do not induce
vomiting when formulations containing petroleum solvents
are ingested. Otherwise, give large quantities of water and
induce vomiting. Do not make an unconscious person
vomit. | [Shipping]
UN3077 Environmentally hazardous substances,
solid, n.o.s., Hazard class: 9; Labels: 9-Miscellaneous haz-
ardous material, Technical Name Required. | [Incompatibilities]
2,4-DB is a weak organic acid. Keep away from oxidizers, sulfuric acid, caustics, ammonia, aliphatic amines, alkanolamines, isocyanates, alkylene oxides, and epichlorohydrin. Corrosive to iron, aluminum, zinc, and possibly other metals, especially in the presence of moisture. | [Chemical Properties]
White to light-brown crystalline solid. May be
shipped as a concentrate to be mixed with water and used
as a spray. Slight phenolic odor. | [Waste Disposal]
Do not discharge into drains
or sewers. Dispose of waste material as hazardous waste
using a licensed disposal contractor to an approved landfill.
Consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guid-
ance on acceptable disposal practices. Incineration with
effluent gas scrubbing is recommended. Containers must be
disposed of properly by following package label directions
or by contacting your local or federal environmental control
agency, or by contacting your regional EPA office | [Uses]
4-(2,4-Dichlorophenoxy)butanoic Acid is a herbicide. | [Definition]
ChEBI: A monocarboxylic acid that is butyric acid in which one of the hydrogens at position 4 is replaced by a 2,4-dichlorophenoxy group. A selective post-emergence herbicide. |
