Unsuitable working materials: various plastics. Keep locked up. Keep container closed. Protect against physical damage. Keep away from incompatible materials. Keep away from heat and all sources of ignition. Ground all equipment containing material. Empty containers pose a fire risk and may be hazardous, since they retain product residues (vapours, liquid); evaporate the residue under a fume hood and observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product. This product should be handled only by, or under the close supervision of, those properly qualified in the handling and use of potentially hazardous chemicals, who should take into account the fire, health and chemical hazard data. It should always be handled in an efficient fume hood or equivalent system. The user should consider that the toxicological and physiological properties of many compounds are not yet well determined and that new hazardous products may arise from reactions between chemicals.

  • Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatabilities

    Carcinogenic, teratogenic or mutagenic materials should be stored in a separate locked safety storage cabinet or room. Storage site should be as close as practical to lab in which carcinogens are to be used, so that only small quantities required for experiment need to be carried. Carcinogens should be kept in only one section of cupboard, an explosion-proof refrigerator or freezer (depending on chemicophysical properties) that bears appropriate label. An inventory should be kept, showing quantity of carcinogen and date it was acquired. Facilities for dispensing should be contiguous to storage area. Store in tightly closed containers, in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Store away from food-stuffs, strong acids, alkalis, active metals, or oxidizing agents. Light sensitive. Store in the dark. Protect against light, moisture and physical damage. Keep away from any source of heat or ignition. Handle and store under nitrogen/inert gas. Check containers periodically for leaks. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (vapours, liquid); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.

  • Corrosiveness

8. Exposure controls/personal protection

Occupational exposure limit values

Name STEL TWA
mg/m3 ppm mg/m3 ppm Footnote
Trichloroethylene 216 40 54 10
  • Other Exposure Information

    A time weighted average (TWA) has been established for Trichloroethylene (Safe Work Australia) of 54 mg/m³, (10 ppm). The corresponding STEL level is 216 mg/m³, (40 ppm). The STEL (Short Term Exposure Limit) is an exposure value that should not be exceeded for more than 15 minutes and should not be repeated for more than 4 times per day. There should be at least 60 minutes between successive exposures at the STEL. The exposure value at the TWA is the average airborne concentration of a particular substance when calculated over a normal 8 hour working day for a 5 day working week. Note: Absorption through skin may be a significant source of exposure.

  • Appropriate engineering controls

    In industrial situations maintain the concentrations values below the TWA. This may be achieved by process modification, use of local exhaust ventilation, capturing substances at the source, or other methods.

  • Respiratory Protection

    Where ventilation is not adequate, respiratory protection may be required. Avoid breathing vapours or mists. Select and use respirators in accordance with AS 1716 - Respiratory Protective Devices and be selected in accordance with AS 1715 - Selection, Use and Maintenance of Respiratory Protective Devices. When mists or vapours exceed the exposure standards then the use of the following is recommended: Approved respirator with organic vapour and dust/mist filters. Filter capacity and respirator type depends on exposure levels.

  • Eye Protection

    The use of a face shield, chemical goggles or safety glasses with side shield protection as appropriate. Must comply with Australian Standards AS 1337 and be selected and used in accordance with AS 1336.

  • Hand Protection

10. Stability and reactivity

  • Chemical Stability

    Moderately stable. Trichloroethylene stabilizers are stable to 130 °C in the presence of air, moisture, light and construction metals. Stabilizers become less effective at higher temperatures. Trichloroethylene is decomposed slowly by air forming phosgene, hydrogen chloride and dichloroacetyl chloride. Sunlight (especially ultraviolet light), heat and moisture accelerate this reaction. In the presence of water, corrosive dichloroacetic acid and hydrochloric acid are formed.

  • Conditions to Avoid

    Air, sunlight (especially ultraviolet light), high energy ultra violet light sources, heat, open flames, welding arcs, or other high temperature sources, strong bases including caustic soda and caustic potash, metallic aluminium and zinc powders, depletion of stabilizers, moisture and water.

  • Incompatible Materials

    Alkali metals (e.g. sodium or potassium and its alloys), strong bases (e.g. sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide) or epoxides (e.g. 1-chloro-2,3-epoxypropane and catalytic amounts of halide ions), strong oxidising agents, e.g. dinitrogen tetroxide, nitric acid, perchloric acid, oxygen, or peroxides) or strong reducing agents (e.g. phosphorus, tin (II) chloride, metal hydrides), chemically active metals (e.g. granular barium, lithium shavings, or beryllium, magnesium or titanium powder), copper, aluminium powder, aluminium chloride, potassium nitrate, iron, copper, zinc or aluminium.

  • Hazardous Decomposition Products

    Hydrogen chloride gas, hydrochloric acid, phosgene, dichloroacetyl chloride and dichloroacetic acid.

  • Possibility of hazardous reactions

    Mixtures with alkali metals (e.g. sodium or potassium and its alloys) are shock-sensitive and may explode with great violence on light impact. Forms spontaneously explosive and flammable monochloroacetylene or dichloroacetylene.
    Reaction with strong bases (e.g. sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide) or epoxides (e.g. 1-chloro-2,3-epoxypropane and catalytic amounts of halide ions) decomposes trichloroethylene forming spontaneously explosive and flammable dichloroacetylene gas.
    May react violently with strong oxidising agents (e.g. dinitrogen tetroxide, nitric acid, perchloric acid, oxygen, or peroxides) or with strong reducing agents (e.g. phosphorus, tin (II) chloride, metal hydrides), with risk of fire and explosion.
    Reaction with chemically active metals (e.g. granular barium, lithium shavings, or beryllium, magnesium or titanium powder) can ignite or explode violently.
    Can react with copper, with any dichloroethylenes present as an impurity, to form explosive acetylides.
    May react violently with aluminium powder, with ignition if traces of hydrochloric acid are present. Reaction with aluminium chloride speeds up the polymerization of trichloroethylene, with production of hydrochloric acid and a very high release of heat.
    May react violently with potassium nitrate.
    Reaction with iron, copper, zinc or aluminium forms phosgene at 250-600 °C.

  • Hazardous

    Does not occur.

  • Polymerization

    The liquid can be polymerised by irradiation with cobalt 60 gamma rays or X-rays.

11. Toxicological Information

  • Acute Toxicity - Oral

    LD50 (rat): 4920 mg/kg;

  • Acute Toxicity - Dermal

    LD50 (rabbit): > 20000 mg/kg

  • Acute Toxicity - Inhalation

    LC50 (mouse): ~ 48.34 ppm/ 4 h.

  • Ingestion

    Harmful if swallowed. Ingestion causes a burning sensation in the mouth and throat, irritation of the digestive tract, followed by coughing, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, dizziness, pulmonary oedema, unconsciousness and signs and symptoms of central nervous system (CNS) depression, as described for inhalation exposure above. Ingestion of 30 mL to 500 mL may cause muscle weakness, vomiting and unconsciousness or delirium, with recovery within 2 weeks. May affect the heart, liver and kidneys. May be fatal due to kidney and liver failure. Some effects described, e.g. the liver effects, may be caused by other chemicals (stabilizers) added to trichloroethylene. Risk of aspiration! Aspiration of material into the lungs may cause chemical pneumonitis, severe lung irritation and damage to the lung tissues which may be fatal. Ingestion is not a typical route of occupational exposure. Estimated fatal dose is 3-5 ml/kg.

  • Inhalation

    Short-term exposure causes irritation of the nose and throat and central nervous system (CNS) depression, with symptoms such as drowsiness, dizziness, giddiness, headache, loss of coordination, gastric disturbances, and intolerance to alcohol. High concentrations have caused numbness and facial pain, jaw weakness (trigeminal nerve effects) and serious visual disturbances, including reduced eyesight and blurred or double vision, unconsciousness, irregular heartbeat and death. Behaviour and coordination (reaction time, dexterity, perception, and memory) may be affected. May produce permanent nervous system damage and/or liver injury by severe overexposure.

  • Skin

    Liquid causes severe skin irritation, redness and pain. Can cause blistering. Prolonged and/or repeated contact may cause defatting of the skin and dermatitis and can produce rough, dry, red skin resulting in secondary infection. May cause peripheral nervous system function impairment including persistent neuritis, and temporary loss of touch. The concentrated vapour, especially at elevated temperatures, can also cause severe redness and irritation. Several cases of very severe skin irritation have been reported in employees exposed to unspecified or high concentrations (up to 165 ppm) of trichloroethylene for a relatively short time (up to 5 weeks). Damage to the liver and other organs has been observed in workers who have been overexposed. Can be absorbed through the skin. However, significant harmful effects are not expected to occur by this route of exposure.

  • Eye

    The liquid produces severe irritation, tearing, burning pain and superficial damage to the cornea, but complete recovery occurs within a few days. Mild irritation has been reported by some volunteers exposed to 160 or 200 ppm vapour. Other sources report no eye irritation at 350-400 ppm. Exposure to high concentrations of vapour (anaesthetic levels of 27 500 - 108 000 mg/m³) also causes eye irritation and superficial damage to the cornea, but with complete recovery. Serious disturbances in eyesight, including reduced eyesight and blurred, double and tunnel vision, have been reported in people with high inhalation exposure. See 'Inhalation', above, for additional information.

  • Skin Sensitisation

    In a Guinea Pig Maximization Test, trichloroethylene tested positive in 10/14 animals, indicating that it was a strong sensitizer. However, the purity of trichloroethylene was not specified. Some 50 known stabilizers are used in trichloroethylene formulations, including amines, pyrroles, mixtures of epoxides and esters, phenols, and alcohols. Therefore, it is not possible to conclude that trichloroethylene is a skin sensitizer based on this study.

  • Carcinogenicity

    Trichloroethylene [79-01-6] is evaluated in the IARC Monographs (Vol. 63; 1995) as Group 1: Carcinogenic to humans.

  • Reproductive Toxicity

    It is not possible to conclude that occupational exposure to trichloroethylene causes harmful effects on reproductive function in men or women, based on the limited human information available.

  • Chronic Effects

    Chronic inhalation may cause effects similar to those of acute inhalation. Chronic exposures may cause liver and kidney effects, central nervous system depression, intolerance to alcohol, increased cardiac output, irregular heart beat, peripheral nervous system function impairment including persistent neuritis, and temporary loss of touch, signs and symptoms of affected nerves of the face and head (cranial nerves), in particular, the trigeminal nerve, which provides feeling and movement to part of the face, with symptoms such as facial numbness, jaw weakness, altered reflexes and facial discomfort, to a lesser extent, signs and symptoms of affected optic nerve, which provides sight, possibly causing vision disturbances, including blurred, double or tunnel vision and poor eyesight. Prolonged and/or repeated exposure to average trichloroethylene levels of 100 ppm and above may cause signs and symptoms of central nervous system (CNS) depression such as headaches, dizziness, altered mood, loss of memory and inability to concentrate or sleep. Symptoms such as dizziness, headache, insomnia, and altered mood may occur with exposures of up to 40 ppm. Repeated or prolonged skin contact may cause defatting and dry, red and chapped skin (dermatitis). Long-term exposure to very high concentrations may harm hearing. This material is linked to mutagenic effects in humans. This material is also a suspect carcinogen.

  • Serious eye damage/irritation

    Draize test, rabbit, eye: 20 mg/24 h Moderate.
