Description of first aid measures
If inhaledFresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Refer for medical attention.

Rinse mouth. Rinse mouth. Refer for medical attention .
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
High concentrations cause lacrimation, increased nasal secretions, coughing, pulmonary rales, and weakness in animals. No human experience is reported. (USCG, 1999)
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Minimum/Potential Fatal Human Dose4. 4= very toxic: probable oral lethal dose (human) 50-500 mg/kg, between 1 teaspoonful & 1 oz for 70 kg person (150 lb).
Gc/ms analyses of profiles of volatile constituents obtained from cord blood & maternal blood samples reflect transplacentally acquired halogenated hydrocarbons & accum in fetal cord blood.
Extinguishing media
If material on fire or involved in fire: Do not extinguish fire unless flow can be stopped. Extinguish fire using agent suitable for type of surrounding fire. (Material itself does not burn or burns with difficulty.) Use water if flooding quantities as fog. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water. Apply water from as far a distance as possible. Use foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide. Keep run-off water out of sewers and water sources.
Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Toxic gases and vapors, such as nitrogen oxides, hydrogen chloride, and carbon monoxide, may be released in a fire. (USCG, 1999)
Advice for firefighters
Use water spray, foam, powder, carbon dioxide. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water.
NFPA 704
| HEALTH | 2 | Intense or continued but not chronic exposure could cause temporary incapacitation or possible residual injury (e.g. diethyl ether, ammonium phosphate, iodine) | |
| FIRE | 2 | Must be moderately heated or exposed to relatively high ambient temperature before ignition can occur and multiple finely divided suspended solids that do not require heating before ignition can occur. Flash point between 37.8 and 93.3 °C (100 and 200 °F). (e.g. diesel fuel, sulfur) | |
| REACT | 3 | Capable of detonation or explosive decomposition but requires a strong initiating source, must be heated under confinement before initiation, reacts explosively with water, or will detonate if severely shocked (e.g. ammonium nitrate, cesium, hydrogen peroxide) | |
| SPEC. HAZ. |
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal protection: self-contained breathing apparatus. Collect leaking liquid in sealable metal containers.
Environmental precautions
Personal protection: self-contained breathing apparatus. Collect leaking liquid in sealable metal containers.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
1. Remove all ignition sources. 2. Ventilate area of spill or leak. 3. For small quantities, absorb on paper towels. Evaporate in safe place (such as a fume hood). Allow sufficient time for evaporating vapors to completely clear the hood ductwork. Burn the paper in a suitable location away from combustible materials. Large quantities can be collected & atomized in a suitable combustion chamber equipped with an appropriate effluent gas cleaning device. 1,1-Dichloro-1-nitroethane should not be allowed to enter a confined space, such as a sewer, because of the possibility of an explosion.
Precautions for safe handling
NO open flames, NO sparks and NO smoking. Above 57.8°C use a closed system, ventilation and explosion-proof electrical equipment. Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Fireproof. Separated from strong oxidants and food and feedstuffs.IN GENERAL, MATERIALS WHICH ARE TOXIC AS STORED OR WHICH CAN DECOMP INTO TOXIC COMPONENTS...SHOULD BE STORED IN A COOL, WELL-VENTILATED PLACE, OUT OF DIRECT RAYS OF THE SUN, AWAY FROM AREAS OF HIGH FIRE HAZARD, & SHOULD BE PERIODICALLY INSPECTED... INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS SHOULD BE ISOLATED FROM EACH OTHER.

Bioaccumulative potential
Based upon an estimated water solubility of 2500 mg/l(2), the BCF of 1,1-dichloro-1- nitroethane can be estimated to be approximately 7.5 from a regression-derived equation(1). This estimated BCF value suggests that bioconcentration in aquatic organisms may not be an important fate process(SRC).
Mobility in soil
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indexes(1), the Koc for 1,1-dichloro-1-nitroethane can be estimated to be about 36(SRC). The Koc for 1,1-dichloro-1-nitroethane can be estimated to be about 59(SRC) based on an estimated water solubility of 2500 mg/L(4) and a regression derived equation(2). According to a suggested classification scheme(3), these estimated Koc values suggest that 1,1-dichloro-1-nitroethane has high to very high soil mobility(SRC).
Other adverse effects

Disposal methods
ProductThe 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.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
