4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayedThis compound exhibits high acute toxicity as a result of exposure by all routes. Death or permanent injury may result after very short exposure to small quantities. Chronic exposure may cause pneumonia, liver damage, and kidney damage. (EPA, 1998)
4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessarySpecific treatment for exposure consists of thorough washing of all exposed skin areas with soap and water, copious irrigation of the eyes, and prompt removal of the patient from the source of exposure. /Hydrazines/
5.Fire-fighting measures 5.1 Extinguishing media Suitable extinguishing mediaIf material on fire or involved in fire: Do not extinguish fire unless flow can be stopped or safely confined. Use water in flooding quantities as fog. Solid streams of water may be ineffective. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water. Apply water from as far a distance as possible. Use "alcohol" foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
5.2 Specific hazards arising from the chemicalVapor may explode if ignited in an enclosed area. Vapors may travel to a source of ignition and flashback. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. When it decomposes, 1,1-dimethylhydrazine gives off toxic nitrogen compound fumes. Dissolves, swells, and disintegrates many plastics. Dangerous when exposed to heat, flame, or oxidizers. Hazardous polymerization may not occur. (EPA, 1998)
5.3 Special protective actions for fire-fightersWear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.

Contaminated wastewater from the NASA Kennedy Space station was studied in batch cultures and trickle bed reactors to monitor the degradation rates of hydrazine containing rocket fuels(1,2). The half-life of structurally similar methylhydrazine in batch cultures (Rhodococcus B30 or Achromobacter sp.) and trickle bed reactors was about 2.5 and 12 days, respectively(1). Biodegradation may be a significant removal process at low concentrations in soils or ambient waters, but at higher concentrations hydrazines are toxic to microorganisms(2). Concentrations of hydrazine and 1,1-dimethylhydrazine that reduced bacterial metabolism by 50% ranged from 14.6 to 145 mg/L and from 19.2 to 9,060 mg/L, respectively(3).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potentialAn estimated BCF value of 3 was calculated for 1,1-dimethylhydrazine(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of -1.19(1) and a recommended regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF value suggests that bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
12.4 Mobility in soilOf the initial amount of 1,1-dimethylhydrazine in cleaned sand (100% sand), Vandenburg Air Force Base (VAFB) soil (99.1% sand, 0.4% clay, pH 6.1), organic soil (96.1% sand, 1% clay, 1% carbon, pH 6.4), and clay (69.3% sand, 27.95% clay, pH 3.7), 5%, 20%, 15%, and 30% was adsorbed, respectively. Passage of 2 liters of distilled, deionized water at 5 ml/min through columns containing sand, VAFB soil, organic soil and clay (10% clay soil plus 90% pure sand) in equilibrium with 10 ml of a 0.1 v/v solution of 1,1-dimethylhydrazine resulted in 99.9%, 42.5%, 21.9%, and 7.2% recovery of this compound, respectively(1). As the hydrazines are all very basic chemicals, adsorption to acidic, clay soils is expected(1).
