Safety Data Sheet

Getting an SDS for Imiprothrin

A Safety Data Sheet is written for a product, not for a substance: the supplier of the grade you actually buy issues it, so two suppliers of Imiprothrin issue two different sheets. That is why there is no single authoritative SDS for a substance to download — what there is, is the job of collecting the sheets for the products you hold and keeping them current as suppliers revise them.

04 · Precautionary statements

Imiprothrin precautionary statements

CLP Annex VI assigns 15 precautionary statements to Imiprothrin. They are grouped the way a label groups them: what to do before handling, what to do when something has already happened, how to store it and how to dispose of it.

05 · Names in the regulation

Imiprothrin name in 23 EU languages

CLP Annex VI Part 3 is published in every language edition of the regulation, and the identification column is written out in each of them. Nothing below is translated by us: each line is the name as that edition prints it. Under Art. 18(2) the substance name from Annex VI is a lawful product identifier, so this is the wording to put on a label going to that market — and where the cell lists several designations, any one of them qualifies.

07 · Health hazards

Imiprothrin health hazards and exposure limits

Imiprothrin hazard summary

Pyrethroids have low toxicity to humans after dermal exposure. Of 573 dermal or ingestion poisoning cases in China, 51 patients had disturbed consciousness and 34 had seizures. Of those, only five were occupationally exposed. Seizures are more commonly related to exposures to fenvalerate, flucythrinate, cypermethrin, deltapermethrin, and fluvalinate. Seizures have not been reported after exposure to permethrin. Pyrethroids may also cause paresthesias after skin contact. Paresthesias (stinging and numbness) usually begin 1-2 hours after contact and resolve within 24 hours. [EPA Pesticides, p. 87-8] Pyrethrins cause liver injury when fed to animals at high doses.

Imiprothrin — frequently asked questions

What is the CAS number of Imiprothrin?

The CAS number of Imiprothrin is 72963-72-5. Its EC number is 428-790-6.

What is the chemical formula of Imiprothrin?

The molecular formula of Imiprothrin is C17H22N2O4 and its molecular weight is 318.4 g/mol.

What does a Imiprothrin label have to show?

Under CLP Annex VI the label for Imiprothrin carries the pictograms Health hazard, Exclamation mark and Environment and the signal word is Warning.

Is Imiprothrin flammable?

CLP Annex VI assigns Imiprothrin no flammability hazard class. That is not a statement that it cannot burn: the harmonised list only records the hazards that were assessed for it. The flash point reported for it is 110 °C (230 °F) (HSDB).

Is Imiprothrin a carcinogen?

CLP Annex VI assigns Imiprothrin H351 — suspected of causing cancer. That is category 2: the evidence points that way but is not conclusive.
