| Captan Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties |
solid |
| Usage |
Fungicide, often added to pesticide mixtures used to control diseases among fruits, vegetables. |
| General Description |
Captan is a white solid dissolved in a liquid carrier. Captan is a water emulsifiable liquid. Captan can cause illness by inhalation, skin absorption and/or ingestion. The primary hazard of Captan is that Captan poses a threat to the environment. In case of release immediate steps should be taken to limit its spread to the environment. Since Captan is a liquid Captan can easily penetrate the soil to contaminate groundwater. Captan is used as a fungicide. |
| Air & Water Reactions |
Slowly hydrolyzed in aqueous neutral and acidic media. Rapidly hydrolyzed in alkaline media. Insoluble in water. |
| Reactivity Profile |
Captan decomposes at or near the melting point. Captan is incompatible with strong alkaline and oxidizing materials, sulfur and (sulfur + moisture). |
| Health Hazard |
Vapor irritates eyes. Ingestion causes depression, lachrymation, labored respiration, diarrhea. |
| Fire Hazard |
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating and toxic gases are produced in a fire; they may include sulfur dioxide, hydrogen chloride, phosgene, and oxides of nitrogen. |
