Sodium dichloroisocyanurate
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE

Main routes of exposure

During occupational handling the sodium salt of dichloroiso-cyanuric acid (D.-Na salt) probably is
mainly taken in via the respiratory tract.[99983]

Respiratory tract
Inhalative exposure to D.-Na salt dusts existing in a respirable form was reported from a production
factory.[00450]
In aqueous solution, the D.-Na salt reacts slowly to form hypochloric acid and cyanurate.[00419]
It is assumed that this hydrolysis already starts in moist air or on the mucous membranes of the
airways so that the hydrolysis products are expected to have an impact there.[00220]
No kinetic data on the inhalative intake is available.[99983]

Skin
No studies on the penetrability through the skin is available for the salts of D.[99983]
Systemic effects observed in an experiment with dermal application of the D.-potassium salt on
rodents suggest the possibility of dermal uptake.[00450]
According to the kinetic data available for cyanuric acid, however, rather minor absorption through
the skin should be expected.[99999]

Gastrointestinal tract
The possibility of absorption via the gastrointestinal tract
is confirmed by systemic effects in animal experiments.[99999]
No kinetic data is available for this intake pathway either.[99983]

TOXIC EFFECTS

Main toxic effects

Acute:
Irritation to the eyes and airways,[00220]
insufficient data available on systemic effects[99983]
Chronic:
dto.[00450]

Acute toxicity

IFA GESTIS-Substance Database 4/17 25.10.2021

Sodium dichloroisocyanurate
Indications of the action profile of D.-Na salt result mainly from animal experiments.
Thus, the substance is irritating if it becomes wet, based on splitting of hypochlorite.[99983]
In a test on rabbits' eyes (instillation of 10 mg of fine dust) immediate signs of displeasure, opacity
of the iris and cornea as well as reddening was noticeable. These symptoms subsided slowly
following rinsing of the eye (24 h later). D.-Na salt was estimated to be moderately eye irritating.
Moderate irritation was also noticed when the substance was applied to the preinjured skin of
rabbits (24 hour contact).
By comparison, under analogous conditions but with intact skin, no irritation was noticeable.
[00450]
Based on the result of a former test (in accordance with Draize) classification was not considered
necessary.[00220]
No tests on the skin sensitizing potential are available.
The toxicity following a single dermal application was low (test according to EPA: LD50 for rabbits >
2000 mg/kg bw).[99983]
Effects for this type of application were only referred for the D.-potassium salt. They caused death for
rabbits in doses of 3160 and 5010 mg/kg bw after 4 and 3 days, respectively. Symptoms were
reduced food intake, diminished activity, increasing weakness and finally collapse. The section
showed bleeding in the lung and liver, enlarged gall bladder and gastrointestinal inflammation.
[00450]
If the D.-Na salt is inhaled, irritation to the upper airways is expected, at high concentrations even to
the bronchi (possible bronchospasm) and injury of the lung.[00419]
However, in tests on rats only very high concentrations were lethal (1 h-LC50: > 50 g/m3).[00220]
Despite these results, an acute risk always exists if there are circumstances (contact with acids or
thermical load) under which chlorine gas can be released.[00419]
Following oral application to rats, the C.-Na salt was slightly toxic (LD50 1670 or > 2000 mg/kg bw).
The animals showed irritative symptoms and systemic effects:
lacrimation, increased salivation, difficulties in breathing, diarrhoea, lethargy, increasing weakness
and finally coma. The section showed irritation in the gastrointestinal tract as well as liver, kidneys
and lung congestion.[00450]
No reports are available on poisoning cases for humans which would have definitely been caused by
dichloroisocyanuric acid derivatives.[99983]

Chronic toxicity

IFA GESTIS-Substance Database 5/17 25.10.2021

Sodium dichloroisocyanurate
The only available study from working areas concerns an examination of 90 employees exposed to
trichloroisocyanuric acid and the D.-Na salt for several months during packaging in a factory. In the
breathable air dust concentrations of 0.11 - 35 mg/m3 were measured and about 60 % of the
particles were respirable.[00450]
2.4 mg/m3, related to the total content of chlorinated isocyanuric acids, was referred as the average
concentration. Despite use of breathing masks with a dust filter, the employees suffered from
difficulty in breathing: cough, shortness of breath, wheezing, irritated throat, nose bleeding,
increased production of mucus and sinus problems.
Furthermore, headache, changes to the skin and (frequently) eye irritation were observed. Female
employees suffered from menstruation disorders (see "Reproductive toxicity"). It was not derivable
from this study which noxa dominated in the dust mixture and which was responsible for the effects.
[00419]
However, the irritative potential which had been found in animal experiments for both substances
suggests an additive impact.[99999]
It was generally indicated that repeated contact of D.-Na salt with the skin can lead to skin
inflammation. In one single case an allergic reaction was observed.[00419]
However, there is no indication that chloroisocyanuric acid derivatives cause any significant
sensitizing potential.[00220]
Dilute solutions are apparently well tolerated.[99983]
An aqueous solution of 333 mg D.-Na salt/l did not cause any irritation for rabbits, not even
following prolonged exposure (5 d/w for 3 months).[00419]
In the course of the long-term use of chlorinated isocyanuric acid derivatives (amongst them the D.-
Na salt) as a desinfectant in swimming pools no health complaints have been observed.[00450]
Indications of possible systemic actions following long-term exposure result from some animal
experiments.[99983]
Rats which received drinking water containing 4000 or 8000 ppm D.-Na salt for 59 days showed
poisoning symptoms after 8 weeks: breathing disturbances, reduced activity, various further
unspecific symptoms, diminished liver weight, in the 8000 ppm group also reduced excretion of
urine, as well as some deaths. No toxic effects appeared if the drinking water contained 400 - 1200
ppm.
In a further 24 months drinking water study rats did not even show toxic effects following 2400 ppm.
Furthermore, data available from numerous tests with cyanuric acid are considered relevant because
rapid dechlorination is assumed. Cyanuric acid showed a low systemic toxicity. At high dosages the
kidneys, in part also the bladder were relevant as target organs.[00220]

Reproductive toxicity, mutagenicity, carcinogenicity

Reproductive toxicity:
In the available tests on rodents (also a 3-generation
drinking water study) D. did not show any reproductive-toxic
action.[00220]
The hint of menstruation disorders for women exposed
resulting from the above mentioned study in working places
cannot be assessed because of methodologic faults in the
study (lack of comparable data).[00419]
Mutagenicity:
The tests carried out to date with the D.-Na salt on
bacteria and mammalian cells have been negative.[00220]
Carcinogenicity:
Insufficient data is available.[99983]

Biotransformation and excretion

No specific metabolic studies with dichloroisocyanuric acid or its salts are available, not even from
animal experiments.[99983]
However, it is assumed that dichloroisocyanuric acid is rapidly dechlorinated in the mammalian
organism to form cyanuric acid.
This metabolite is expected to be excreted rapidly. This proceeds nearly completely and without
further metabolization via the kidney.[00220]
For the present, further metabolic pathways for dichloroisocyanuric acid and its salts are not to be
excluded.[99983]

FIRST AID

Eyes
Rinse the affected eye with widely spread lids for 10 minutes under running water whilst protecting
the unimpaired eye.
Then, immediately transport the casualty to an eye doctor / to hospital.
[00450]

Skin
Remove contaminated clothing while protecting yourself.
Rinse the affected skin areas for at least 10 to 20 minutes under running water.
Arrange for medical treatment.
[00450]

Respiratory tract
Whilst protecting yourself remove the casualty from the hazardous area and take him to the fresh air.
Lay the casualty down in a quiet place and protect him against hypothermia.
As soon as possible repeatedly have the casualty deeply breath a glucocorticoid inhalation spray in.
In the case of breathing difficulties have the casualty inhale oxygen.
In every case, even if there are no symptoms:
Arrange medical treatment.
[00450, 08013]

Swallowing
Rinse the mouth and spit the fluids out.
If the casualty is conscious have him drink 1 glass of water (ca 200 ml).
Do not make the casualty vomit.
In the meantime call a physician to the site of the accident.
[08013]

Information for physicians

IFA GESTIS-Substance Database 7/17 25.10.2021

Sodium dichloroisocyanurate
No poisoning cases or other acute damage due to the sodium salt of dichloroacetic acid have been
reported to date.
Animal experiments suggest that the local irritating action to the mucous membranes is the main
issue.[99983]
Under certain conditions of exposure, the release of chlorine gas is not to be excluded (see
"Recommendations").[00419]

- Symptoms of acute poisoning:

Eyes: burning sensation, pain, lacrimation, reddening, inflammation; possibly also opacity of the
cornea/iris
Skin: generally no obvious irritation to the intact skin;[00450] allergic reactions not definitely to be
excluded;[00419] absorptive-toxic reactions possible following extensive contact[00450]
Inhalation: irritation to the nose and throat, cough; possible acute bronchospasm and damage to
the lung;[00419] absorptive-toxic effects?[99983]
Ingestion: irritation (possibly chemical burns) to mucous membranes contacted;[00450] absorptive-
toxic effects following high doses[07784]
Absorption: increasing apathy, weakness, reactions to the heart/circulatory system (collapse),
possible disturbances to the functions of the liver and kidneys (indications from animal
experiments).[00450]

- Medical advice:
Following contact with the eyes, careful, prolonged rinsing and alleviation of pain (as necessary)
should be followed by a ophthalmologist consultation.[08013]
Initially rinse contaminated skin with water, then thoroughly cleanse with soap and water.
Subsequently, irritated areas can be treated with a dermatocorticoid.
Following extensive contact long-term observation of the casualty for systemic effects is
recommended.[99999]
Following inhalation apply rather a lot of fresh air. If massive exposure is suspected or there are
signs of irritation, apply glucocorticoids (inhalatively, i.v.).
Carry out all further prophylactic, measures for pulmonary edema. For bronchospasm in addition
administer bronchodilators (eg Fenoterol). If chlorine gas has been inhaled, artificial ventilation with
oxygen can be disadvantageous (use it only intermittently).[08013]
Even if there are no symptoms initially, long-term observation of the casualty is indicated in order to
watch for the development of lung damage.[99999]
Following swallowing have the casualty drink quite, a lot of water.[08013]
If larger amounts were swallowed and signs of perforation are definitely absent, gastrolavage is to be
considered.
The therapy of possible systemic effects has to be done symptomatically.[99999]
For postobservation following poisoning with derivatives of cyanuric acid, check of the functions of
the heart/circulatory system, liver and kidneys as well as of hematologic parameters is
recommended in particular.[08013]

Recommendations
Provide the physician information about the substance/product and treatment already
administered.
If the Na salt of dichloroisocyanuric acid is dissolved in water, it slowly releases hypochloric acid. In
particular at high temperatures or in contact with acids, the substance is expected to release
chlorine gas.[00419]

TECHNICAL MEASURES - FIRE AND EXPLOSION PROTECTION

Technical, constructive measures

Substance has an oxidizing effect.
Fire fighting equipment must be available.
Inspect the electrical fittings regularly against the higher risk of corrosion.

Precaution on handling
Keep away from open flames.
Observe the smoking prohibition!
Absolutely no welding in the working area.
Only work with vessels and lines after these have been thoroughly rinsed.
Work done with fire or open flame should only be carried out with written permission if the risk of fire
or explosion cannot be completely eliminated.
Keep away from combustible materials.
Filter the solutions only with glass wool, glass chips, or ceramic filters. Do not use any filtration
materials made of paper which risks ignition after drying. Do not leave any cleaning rags lying in the
open.

ORGANISATIONAL MEASURES

Instruction on the hazards and the protective measures using instruction manual (TRGS 555) are
required with signature if just more than one minor hazard was detected.
Instruction must be provided before employment and then at a minimum of once per annum
thereafter.
An escape and rescue plan must be prepared when the location, scale, and use of the work-site so
demand.
Observe the restrictions on juvenile employment as defined in the "Jugendarbeitsschutzgesetz".

PERSONAL PROTECTION

Body protection
Depending on the risk, wear a sufficiently long apron and boots or a suitable chemical protection
suit.

Respiratory protection
In an emergency (e.g.: unintentional release of the substance) respiratory protection must be worn.
Consider the maximum period for wear.
Respiratory protection: Particle filter P2, colour code white.
Use insulating device for concentrations above the usage limits for filter devices, for oxygen
concentrations below 17% volume, or in circumstances which are unclear.
IFA GESTIS-Substance Database 10/17 25.10.2021
Sodium dichloroisocyanurate

Eye protection
Sufficient eye protection must be worn.
Wear chemical safety goggles.
If the face is at risk a protective shield must also be worn.

Hand protection
Use protective gloves. The glove material must be sufficiently impermeable and resistant to the
substance. Check the tightness before wear. Gloves should be well cleaned before being removed,
then stored in a well ventilated location. Pay attention to skin care.
Skin protection cremes do not protect sufficiently against the substance.
The following information is valid for aqueous, saturated solutions of the substance.
The following materials are suitable for protective gloves (Permeation time >= 8 hours):
Nitrile rubber/Nitrile latex - NBR (0,35 mm)
Butyl rubber - Butyl (0,5 mm)
Fluoro carbon rubber - FKM (0,4 mm)
Protective gloves of the following materials should not be worn longer than 4 hours continually
(Permeation time >= 4 hours):
Polychloroprene - CR (0,5 mm)
Protective gloves of the following materials should not be worn longer than 1 hour continually
(Permeation time >= 1 hour):
Polyvinyl chloride - PVC (0,5 mm)
Following materials are unsuitable for protective gloves because of degradation, severe swelling or
low permeation time:
Natural rubber/Natural latex - NR

The times listed are suggested by measurements taken at 22 °C and constant contact. Temperatures
raised by warmed substances, body heat, etc. and a weakening of the effective layer thickness
caused by expansion can lead to a significantly shorter breakthrough time. In case of doubt contact
the gloves' manufacturer. A 1.5-times increase / decrease in the layer thickness doubles / halves the
breakthrough time. This data only applies to the pure substance. Transferred to mixtures of
substances, these figures should only be taken as an aid to orientation.

Occupational hygiene
Foods, beverages and other articles of consumption must not be consumed at the work areas.
Suitable areas are to be designated for these purposes.
Avoid contact with eyes. In case of contact rinse the affected eye(s).
Avoid contact with clothing. Contaminated clothes must be exchanged and cleaned carefully.
The skin must be washed with soap and water before breaks and at the end of work.
Apply fatty skin-care products after washing.

DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS

Hazardous waste according to Waste Catalogue Ordinance (AVV).

If there is no way of recycling it must be disposed of in compliance with the respective national and
local regulations.

Collection of small amounts of substance:

Do not put/place waste into sink or dust bin.
Collect in container for solid organic residues.
Collection vessels must be clearly labelled with a systematic description of their contents. Store the
vessels in a well-ventilated location. Entrust them to the appropriate authorities for disposal.

ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Evacuate area. Warn affected surroundings.

The hazardous area may only be entered once suitable protective measures are implemented. Only
then can the hazardous situation be removed (see chapter Personal Protection).
