【Exposure Standards and Regulations】
Synthetic flavoring substances and adjuvants may be safely used in food in accordance with the following conditions. a) They are used in the minimum quantity required to produce their intended effect, and otherwise in accordance with all the principles of good manufacturing practice. b) They consist of one or more of the following, used alone or in combination with flavoring substances and adjuvants generally recognized as safe in food, prior-sanctioned for such use, or regulated by an appropriate section in this part. Acetophenone is included on this list.
【Other Preventative Measures】
SRP: Contaminated protective clothing should be segregated in such a manner so that there is no direct personal contact by personnel who handle, dispose, or clean the clothing. Quality assurance to ascertain the completeness of the cleaning procedures should be implemented before the decontaminated protective clothing is returned for reuse by the workers. Contaminated clothing should not be taken home at end of shift, but should remain at employee's place of work for cleaning.
Protect eyes & skin from direct contact.
Adequate ventilation... should be provided in those operations where acetophenone is heated to elevated temperatures.
SRP: The scientific literature for the use of contact lenses in industry is conflicting. The benefit or detrimental effects of wearing contact lenses depend not only upon the substance, but also on factors including the form of the substance, characteristics and duration of the exposure, the uses of other eye protection equipment, and the hygiene of the lenses. However, there may be individual substances whose irritating or corrosive properties are such that the wearing of contact lenses would be harmful to the eye. In those specific cases, contact lenses should not be worn. In any event, the usual eye protection equipment should be worn even when contact lenses are in place.
【Protective Equipment and Clothing】

【Specification】

?Acetophenone (CAS NO.98-86-2) is also named as 1-Phenyl-1-ethanone ; 1-Phenylethanone ; AI3-00575 ; Acetofenon ; Acetofenon [Czech] ; Acetophenon ; Acetylbenzene ; Acetylbenzol ; Benzene, acetyl- ; Benzoyl methide ; Benzoylmethide ; CCRIS 1341 ; Ethanone, 1-phenyl- ; FEMA No. 2009 ; FEMA Number 2009 ; HSDB 969 ; Hypnone ; Ketone, methyl phenyl ; Methyl phenyl ketone ; NSC 7635 ; Phenyl methyl ketone ; RCRA waste number U004 ; UNII-RK493WHV10 ; USAF EK-496 .?Acetophenone (CAS NO.98-86-2) is yellow liquid with a sweet pungent taste. It is slightly soluble in water. Vapor heavier than air. A mild irritant to skin and eyes. Vapors can be narcotic in high concentrations. Acetophenone reacts with many acids and bases liberating heat and flammable gases (e.g., H2). Reacts with many oxidizing agents. Reacts with reducing agents such as hydrides, alkali metals, and nitrides to produce flammable gas (H2) and heat. The amount of heat in these reactions may be sufficient to start a fire in the unreacted portion. It ia incompatible with isocyanates, aldehydes, cyanides, peroxides, and anhydrides. No toxicity expected from inhalation or ingestion except slight narcotic effect. Liquid can cause eye and skin irritation on contact.

Environmental Fate and Exposure Potential

【Environmental Fate/Exposure Summary】
TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a Koc value of 10 measured in an agricultural soil obtained from Northeastern China(2), indicates that acetophenone is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of acetophenone from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given a Henry's Law constant of 1.04X10-5 atm-cu m/mole(3). Acetophenone is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 0.397 mm Hg(4). Numerous screening studies have indicated that acetophenone is readily biodegradable(5-7).
AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a measured Koc value of 10(2), indicates that acetophenone is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon a Henry's Law constant of 1.04X10-5 atm-cu m/mole(4). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 61 hours and 32 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 0.5(SRC), from a log Kow of 1.58(7) and a regression-derived equation(7), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Biodegradation in water surfaces is expected to be an important fate process based on half-lives of 32, 8, and 4.5 days in groundwater, river water and lake water, respectively(8,9).
ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), acetophenone, which has a vapor pressure of 0.397 mm Hg at 25 deg C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase acetophenone is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 6 days(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 2.74X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 deg C(3). While acetophenone absorbs light greater than 290 nm(4), it is not expected to undergo significant direct photolysis in the environment(5).
