5.Fire-fighting measures 5.1 Extinguishing media Suitable extinguishing mediaExtinguish with water, foam, carbon dioxide, or dry chemical.
5.2 Specific hazards arising from the chemicalWhen heated to decomposition, it emits very toxic fumes of sulfur oxides, phosphorus oxides, and chlorides. Incompatible with piperonyl butoxide. Stable in water. (EPA, 1998)
5.3 Special protective actions for fire-fightersWear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
6.Accidental release measures 6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency proceduresUse personal protective equipment. Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Avoid breathing dust. For personal protection see section 8.
6.2 Environmental precautionsPersonal protection: particulate filter respirator adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance and protective clothing. Do NOT wash away into sewer. Collect the spilled substance into containers. If appropriate, moisten first to prevent dusting. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.
6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning upHydrolysis: This cmpd can be decomposed on heating with concentrated alkali. It is oxidized with nitric acid or other oxidizing agents to the phosphate analogue, coroxon. Dilute alkali (pH 8-12) causes an opening of the pyrone ring, which can be closed again by acidification to yield the original compound.
7.Handling and storage 7.1 Precautions for safe handlingAvoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Avoid exposure - obtain special instructions before use.Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed. For precautions see section 2.2.
7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilitiesSeparated from food and feedstuffs. Well closed. Keep in a well-ventilated room. Store in an area without drain or sewer access.Storage temperature: Ambient

Biological limit valuesno data available
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 reactionsIt is combustible ...Organothiophosphates, such as COUMAPHOS, are susceptible to formation of highly toxic and flammable phosphine gas in the presence of strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Partial oxidation by oxidizing agents may result in the release of toxic phosphorus oxides. It reacts with strong oxidizing agents and alkaline materials.

12.Ecological information 12.1 Toxicity- Toxicity to fish: LC50; Species: Salvelinus namaycush (lake trout) weight 2.1 g; Conditions: static lab bioassay, 12°C; Concentration: 593 ug/L for 96 hr (95% confidence limit: 416-846 ug/L) /Technical material, 95-97%
- Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: LC50; Species: Daphnia magna /(Water flea)/; Concentration: 1.0 ug/L for 48 hr /Conditions of bioassay not specified
- Toxicity to algae: no data available
- Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available
AEROBIC: In a biodegradability screening test using an activated sludge inoculum and 50 ug/L of radio-labeled test compound, only 0.9% of coumaphos was mineralized in 5 days(1). Coumaphos in dipping solutions can be effectively biodegraded by specially grown pure cultures(2). Degradation was slow in a sandy loam soil, half-life approximately 300 days(2). The half-life in a field test in which 300 ppm of coumaphos was incorporated into the upper 15 cm of silty loam soil was about 200 days(2). The major degradation products were chlorferon (3-chloro-4-methyl-7-hydroxycoumarin) and the oxygen analog(2). No degradation was noted in a microbially-active Drummer silty clay loam soil in 22 days(2). Coumaphos was degraded in 7 days in soil slurries using soil from six vat waste disposal pits in Texas(4). In similar experiments using (14)C ring-labeled coumaphos, 61% of the (14)C was recovered as (14)CO2 when radiolabeled coumaphos was added to soil slurries containing 1200 mg/L coumaphos; no loss of coumaphos nor production of (14)CO2 was observed when sodium azide was added to the soil slurries(3).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potentialA BCF of 110 was determined in Golden ide (Leuciscus idus melanotus) in a 3-day test(1). A BCF of 540 was determined in bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus) exposed for 28 days(2). According to a classification scheme(3), these BCFs suggest bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high. The 24 hr bioaccumulation factor in algae (Chlorella fusca) is 470(1).
12.4 Mobility in soilKoc values of 5778 to 21,120 were reported in 4 soil types(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this Koc value range suggests that coumaphos is expected to be immobile in soil.
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.
