Reactivity Profile
PERTHANE (TM) is sensitive to heat. PERTHANE (TM) is incompatible with alkalis. PERTHANE (TM) is readily dehydrochlorinated. PERTHANE (TM) is slightly corrosive to iron, zinc, and aluminum.
Health Hazard
Mildly toxic by ingestion; the oral medianlethal doses in all experimental animalswere >5000 mg/kg; however, producedmoderate to severe effects when administeredintravenously; toxic properties are somewhatsimilar to those of DDT; susceptible tostorage in fat; also bioaccumulative; ateratogenic substance; sufficient evidenceof carcinogenicity in mice, but inadequateevidence in other animals; cancer-causingeffects in human unknown.
LD50 oral (rat): 6600 mg/kg
LD50 oral (wild bird): 9000 mg/kg
LD50 intravenous (rat): 73 mg/kg.
Fire Hazard
