3. Use and Manufacturing
3.1 Agricultural Uses
Fungicide, Rodenticide: Thiram is used as a fungicide to prevent crop damagein the field and to prevent crops from deteriorationin storage or transport. Thiram is also used as a seed, nut,fruit, and mushroom disinfectant from a variety of fungaldiseases. In addition, it is used as an animal repellentto protect fruit trees and ornamentals from damageby rabbits, rodents, and deer. Thiram has been used in thetreatment of human scabies, as a sun screen, and as a bactericideapplied directly to the skin or incorporated into soap. Thiram is used as a rubber accelerator and vulcanizerand as a bacteriostat for edible oils and fats. It is also usedas a rodent repellent, wood preservative, and may be usedin the blending of lubricant oils. Registered for use in EUcountries. Registered for use in the U.S.
3.2 Definition
ChEBI: An organic disulfide that results from the formal oxidative dimerisation of N,N-dimethyldithiocarbamic acid. It is widely used as a fungicidal seed treatment.
3.3 General Description
A liquid solution of a white crystalline solid. Primary hazard is to the environment. Immediate steps should be taken to limit spread to the environment. Easily penetrates the soil to contaminates groundwater and waterways.
3.4 Potential Exposure
Thiram is a dithiocarbamate. Some thiurams have been used as rubber components: thiram is used as a rubber accelerator and vulcanizer; a seed, nut, fruit, and mushroom disinfectant; a bacteriostat for edible oils and fats; and as an ingredient in suntan and antiseptic sprays and soaps. It is also used as a fungicide, rodent repellent; wood preservative; and may be used in the blending of lubricant oils.
3.5 Purification Methods
Crystallise thiram (three times) from boiling CHCl3, then recrystallise it from boiling CHCl3 by adding EtOH dropwise to initiate crystallisation, and allow it to cool. Finally it is precipitated from cold CHCl3 by adding EtOH (which retains the monosulfide in solution). [Ferington & Tobolsky J Am Chem Soc 77 4510 1955, Beilstein 4 IV 242.]

4.3 Fire Hazard
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Toxic and irritating oxides of sulfur are formed. Carbon disulfide may be formed from unburned material.
4.4 Other Preventative Measures
Avoid long-term exposure, even to small quantities ... . Do not consume alcohol on a day when thiram is used.
Eating and smoking should not be permitted in areas where thiram is handled, processed or stored.
Persons not wearing protective equipment and clothing should be restricted from areas of spills until cleanup has been completed.
Clothing contaminated with thiram should be placed in closed containers for storage until it can be discarded or until provision is made for the removal of thiram from the clothing. If the clothing is to be laundered or otherwise cleaned to remove the thiram, the person performing the operation should be informed of thiram's hazardous properties.
Non-impervious clothing which becomes contaminated with thiram should be removed promptly and not reworn until the thiram is removed from the clothing.
Respirators may be used when engineering and work practice controls are not technically feasible, when such controls are in the process of being installed, or when they fail and need to be supplemented. Respirators may also be used for operations which require entry into tanks or closed vessels, and in emergency situations. If the use of respirators are necessary, the only respirators permitted are those that have been approved by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (formerly Mining Enforcement and Safety Administration) or by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health.
In addition to respirator selection, a complete respiratory protection program should be instituted which includes regular training, maintenance, inspection, cleaning, and evaluation. If employees' clothing may have become contaminated with solid thiram, employees should change into uncontaminated clothing before leaving the work premises.
Employees should be provided with and required to use impervious clothing, gloves, face shields (eight-inch minimum), and other appropriate protective clothing necessary to prevent skin contact with thiram or liquids containing thiram, where skin contact may occur.
Employees who handle thiram or liquids containing thiram should wash their hands, thoroughly with soap or mild detergent and water before eating, smoking, or using toilet facilities.
Skin that becomes contaminated with thiram should be promptly washed or showered with soap or mild detergent and water to remove any thiram.
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.
If material not involved in fire: Keep material out of water sources and sewers. Build dikes to contain flow as necessary.
The worker should immediately wash the skin when it becomes contaminated.
Work clothing that becomes wet or significantly contaminated should be removed and replaced.
Workers whose clothing may have become contaminated should change into uncontaminated clothing before leaving the work premises.
Personnel protection: Avoid breathing vapors or dusts. ... Do not handle broken packages unless wearing appropriate personal protective equipment. Avoid bodily contact with the material. If contact with the material anticipated, wear appropriate chemical protective clothing.

8.26 Contact allergens
TITD is a rubber vulcanization accelerator
8.27 Contact allergens
This rubber chemical, accelerator of vulcanization, represents the most commonly positive allergen contained in “thiuram mix.” The most frequent occupational categories are the metal industry, homemakers, health services and laboratories, the building industry, and shoemakers. It is also widely used as a fungicide, belonging to the dithiocarbamate group of carrots, bulbs, and woods, and as an insecticide. Thiram is the agricultural name for thiuram.
8.28 Safety Profile
Poison by ingestion and intraperitoneal routes. Questionable carcinogen with experimental tumorigenic and teratogenic data. Other experimental reproductive effects. Mutation data reported, Affects human pulmonary system. A rmld allergen and irritant. Acute poisoning in experimental animals produced liver, hdney, and brain damage. Dangerous in a fire; see NITROGEN MONOXIDE and SULFUR DIOXIDE.
8.29 Potential Exposure
Thiram is a dithiocarbamate. Some thiurams have been used as rubber components: thiram is used as a rubber accelerator and vulcanizer; a seed, nut, fruit, and mushroom disinfectant; a bacteriostat for edible oils and fats; and as an ingredient in suntan and antiseptic sprays and soaps. It is also used as a fungicide, rodent repellent; wood preservative; and may be used in the blending of lubricant oils.
8.30 Carcinogenicity
Thiram also was not carcinogenic in rats by gavage or in mice by single subcutaneous injection. In skin painting studies in mice thiram had tumor-initiating and -promoting activity but was not a complete carcinogen.
Thiram was genotoxic to insects, plants, fungi, and bacteria: it induced sister chromatid exchange and unscheduled DNA synthesis in cultured human cells. Despite established genotoxicity in vitro, it showed no clastogenic and/or aneugenic activity in vivo after oral administration to mice at the maximum tolerated dose.
8.31 Environmental Fate
Biological. In both soils and water, chemical and biological mediated reactions can transform thiram to compounds containing the mercaptan group (Alexander, 1981). Odeyemi and Alexander (1977) isolated three strains of Rhizobium sp. that degraded thiram. One of these strains, Rhizobium meliloti, metabolized thiram to yield dimethy- lamine (DMA) and carbon disul?de which formed spontaneously from dimethyldithiocar- bamate (DMDT). The conversion of DMDT to DMA and carbon disul?de occurred via enzymatic and nonenzymatic mechanisms (Odeyemi and Alexander, 1977).
When thiram (100 ppm) was inoculated with activated sludge (30 ppm) at 25°C and pH 7.0 for two weeks, 30% degraded. Metabolites included methionine, elemental sulfur, formaldehyde, dimethyldithiocarbamate-α-aminobutyric acid and the corresponding keto aci
To a non-autoclaved alluvial sandy loam (pH 7.3) fortified and inoculated with the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 40 and 86% degradation were observed after 4 and 24 days, respectively. In autoclaved soil, thiram degradation was not affected. Degradat
Soil. Decomposes in soils to carbon disul?de and dimethylamine (Sisler and Cox, 1954; Kaars Sijpesteijn et al., 1977). When a spodosol (pH 3.8) pretreated with thiram was incubated for 24 days at 30°C and relative humidity of 60–90%, dimethylamine formed as the major product. Minor degradative products included nitrite ions (nitration reduction) and dimethylnitrosamine (Ayanaba et al., 1973).
Plant. Major plant metabolites are ethylene thiourea, thiram monosul?de, ethylene thiram disul?de and sulfur (Hartley and Kidd, 1987).

8.32 Metabolic pathway
Dialkyldithiocarbamates chelate copper and inhibit pyruvate dehydrogenase. It is likely that the mode of action of chelators is principally through their effect on lipoamide containing dehydrogenases (Corbett et al., 1984). Thiram generates dimethyldithiocarbamic acid by being cleaved in acidic conditions and in biological media. The acid is conjugated with glucose and alanine in plants and with glucuronic acid in mammals. Dimethyldithiocarbamic acid is further degraded to dimethylamine and CS2. An extensive review of the properties of dithiocarbamate pesticides was published by the World Health Organisation (WHO, 1988) from which much of the following information is taken.
8.33 Shipping
UN2771 Thiocarbamate pesticides, solid, toxic, Hazard Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials.
8.34 Purification Methods
Crystallise thiram (three times) from boiling CHCl3, then recrystallise it from boiling CHCl3 by adding EtOH dropwise to initiate crystallisation, and allow it to cool. Finally it is precipitated from cold CHCl3 by adding EtOH (which retains the monosulfide in solution). [Ferington & Tobolsky J Am Chem Soc 77 4510 1955, Beilstein 4 IV 242.]
8.35 Degradation
Thiram is decomposed in acidic media. It deteriorates on prolonged exposure to heat, air or moisture. DT50 values are estimated as 128 days, 18 days and 9 hours at pH 4, 7 and 9, respectively (PM). The dimethyldithiocarbamate (2) is stable in alkaline media but unstable in acidic conditions, decomposing to dimethylamine and carbon disulfide. In water, the dimethyldithiocarbamate can be oxidatively degraded to a number of products. The rate of degradation depends on pH and the type of any cations that might be present. The rate of decomposition and production of CS2 is decreased by cations in the following order Na+ > Zn2+> Fe3+> Cu2+. Thiram was completely degraded in sewage water in 12 days.
An ethanolic solution of unlabelled thiram (4 g l-1) was exposed to UV light for 48 hours. The reaction tube was encircled by low pressure Hg lamps that gave more than 85% of their total radiation at 253.7 nm. Pure nitrogen was bubbled through the solutions. Photo-oxidation studies were done similarly except that oxygen was bubbled through the solution. In further experiments, irradiation was by visible light from a tungsten lamp and again oxygen was bubbled through the solution. The outlet gases from the UV study were condensed in a cold trap and analysed by GC-MS. Traces of carbon disulfide and dimethylamine were identified. The reaction mixture was also analysed by GC-MS and three products were identified as tetramethyl hydrazine (3), N,N-dimethylthioformamide (4) and tetramethylthiourea (5). The identity of the latter was confirmed by IR and NMR. The reaction mixture was concentrated and applied to TLC plates and sulfur and tetramethylthiourea (5) were identified as the main products of photolysis. The same products with the addition of sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide were produced by UV light and oxygen. Oxidation of thiram in the presence of visible light together with Rose Bengal as a photosensitiser also gave the same products in almost identical yields. The results confirm that C-S and S-S bond fissions are primary photochemical steps with dithiocarbamates.

8.36 Toxicity evaluation
Thiram cytotoxicity appears to result from its potential to disrupt cellular defense mechanisms against oxidative stress. In cultured human skin fibroblast, thiram results in an increase in oxidative markers such as lipid peroxidation and oxidation of reduced glutathione and decrease in other endogenous antioxidant. Toxic effects of thiram have been described in humans and animal model systems ranging from liver injury, testicular toxicity, ophthalmological changes, and development of micronuclei in bone marrow. However, the mechanisms of these effects are not characterized and inconsistent across various studies.
8.37 Incompatibilities
Dust may form explosive mixture with air. Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine,fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions. Keep away from strong alkaline materials, strong acids, strong bases and nitrating agents.
8.38 Waste Disposal
Consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices. Generators of waste containing this contaminant (≥100 kg/mo) must conform with EPA regulations governing storage, transportation, treatment, and waste disposal. Thiram can be dissolved in alcohol or other flammable solvent and burned in an incinerator with an afterburner and scrubber.
