5.Fire-fighting measures 5.1 Extinguishing media Suitable extinguishing media(Non-Specific -- Poisonous Liquid, n.o.s.) Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind; keep out of low areas. Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Wear positive pressure breathing apparatus and special protective clothing. If water pollution occurs, notify appropriate authorities. (Non-Specific -- Poisonous Liquid, n.o.s.) Small fires: dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or foam. Large fires: water spray, fog or foam. Move container from fire area if you can do so without risk. Fight fire from maximum distance. Dike fire control water for later disposal; do not scatter the material. (EPA, 1998)
5.2 Specific hazards arising from the chemicalWhen heated to decomposition, it emits toxic fumes of nitrogen oxides. Avoid decomposing heat. (EPA, 1998)

8.2 Appropriate engineering controlsHandle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.
8.3 Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment (PPE) Eye/face protectionSafety glasses with side-shields conforming to EN166. Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).
Skin protectionWear impervious clothing. The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique(without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.

10.2 Chemical stabilityStable under recommended storage conditions.
10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactionsANILINE, 2,4,6-TRIMETHYL- neutralizes acids in exothermic reactions to form salts plus water. May be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen may be generated in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.
10.4 Conditions to avoidno data available
10.5 Incompatible materialsSmall amounts of aromatic amines - aniline ignite on contact, while larger amounts exploded dangerously, probably owing to rapid formation of diazonium perchlorates.

12.Ecological information 12.1 Toxicity- Toxicity to fish: no data available
- Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: no data available
- Toxicity to algae: no data available
- Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available
AEROBIC: In a pure culture study using Escherichia coli B, 2,4,6-trimethylaniline was not found to degrade after 7 days incubation at 37°C in total darkness(1). 2,4,6-Trimethylaniline exhibited 0-9% depletion at 20 mg/l after 6 hrs @ 25°C in a mixed domestic/industrial treatment plant(2).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potentialAn estimated BCF of 25 was calculated for 2,4,6-trimethylaniline(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 2.72(1,SRC) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low.
12.4 Mobility in soilUsing a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc for 2,4,6-trimethylaniline can be estimated to be 198(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that 2,4,6-trimethylaniline is expected to have moderate mobility in soil. However, primary amines(including anilines) bind to humate found in soil in two phases(3). Initially, a rapid, reversible equilibrium is established, which may represent formation of imine linkages with the humate carbonyls(3). Subsequently, there is a slow reaction that is not readily reversed(3).
12.5 Other adverse effectsno data available
13.Disposal considerations 13.1 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.
Contaminated packagingContainers 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.
