  • First Aid: Warning: Effects, including skin reactions, may be delayed. Caution is advised. Vital signs should be monitored closely. Heart palpitation may begin within minutes after exposure.; Note: Acrylonitrile is very readily absorbed through the skin.; Signs and Symptoms of Acrylonitrile Exposure: Signs and symptoms of acute exposure to acrylonitrile may include hypertension (high blood pressure) and tachycardia (rapid heart rate), followed by hypotension (low blood pressure) and bradycardia (slow heart rate). Cherry-red mucous membranes and blood, cardiac arrhythmias, and other cardiac abnormalities are common. Cyanosis (blue tint to the skin and mucous membranes) is not a consistent finding. Tachypnea (rapid respiratory rate) may be followed by respiratory depression. Lung hemorrhage and pulmonary edema may also occur. Headache, vertigo (dizziness), agitation, and giddiness may be followed by combative behavior, convulsions, paralysis, protruding eyeballs, dilated and unreactive pupils, and coma. Acrylonitrile is irritating to the skin and mucous membranes. Lacrimation (tearing) and a burning sensation of the mouth and throat are common.

  • Health Effects: Exposure to high levels of cyanide for a short time harms the brain and heart and can even cause coma, seizures, apnea, cardiac arrest and death. Chronic inhalation of cyanide causes breathing difficulties, chest pain, vomiting, blood changes, headaches, and enlargement of the thyroid gland.

  • Toxicity Summary: IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Acrylonitrile is a clear, colorless liquid at room temperature. Acrylonitrile is used as a monomer for acrylic and modacrylic fibers and whiskers, in copolymers with styrene and butadiene (ABS resins), in the manufacture of adiponitrile, and in nitrile rubbers. Acrylonitrile is no longer used as a fumigant and nitrile resins made with acrylonitrile are no longer used to make beverage bottles. HUMAN STUDIES: Dermal exposure to acrylonitrile causes irritation, burns, and blisters. Additionally, dermal exposure to acrylonitrile can lead to systemic toxicity and lethality. Chronic effects can also occur after exposure to acrylonitrile vapors or liquid. 576 Japanese workers exposed to 5-20 ppm acrylonitrile over 10 yr showed headache, fatigue, nausea, and weakness with symptoms of anemia, jaundice, conjunctivitis, and abnormal whole blood and serum specific gravity, cholinesterase, urobilinogen, bilirubin, urinary protein, and sugar values, indicative of liver injury and a general toxic effect. In cultured human bronchial epithelial cells acrylonitrile induced cytotoxicity, sister chromatid exchanges and DNA single strand breaks.

  • Toxicity Summary: Organic nitriles decompose into cyanide ions both in vivo and in vitro. Consequently the primary mechanism of toxicity for organic nitriles is their production of toxic cyanide ions or hydrogen cyanide. Cyanide is an inhibitor of cytochrome c oxidase in the fourth complex of the electron transport chain (found in the membrane of the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells). It complexes with the ferric iron atom in this enzyme. The binding of cyanide to this cytochrome prevents transport of electrons from cytochrome c oxidase to oxygen. As a result, the electron transport chain is disrupted and the cell can no longer aerobically produce ATP for energy. Tissues that mainly depend on aerobic respiration, such as the central nervous system and the heart, are particularly affected. Cyanide is also known produce some of its toxic effects by binding to catalase, glutathione peroxidase, methemoglobin, hydroxocobalamin, phosphatase, tyrosinase, ascorbic acid oxidase, xanthine oxidase, succinic dehydrogenase, and Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase. Cyanide binds to the ferric ion of methemoglobin to form inactive cyanmethemoglobin. (L97) Source: Toxin and Toxin Target Database (T3DB)
  • Environmental Bioconcentration: A whole body BCF of 48 was determined for bluegills exposed to acrylonitrile for 28 days (or until equilibrium was obtained) in a flowing water system(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 29(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 0.25(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that acrylonitrile is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of acrylonitrile from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given a Henry's Law constant of 1.38X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(4). Acrylonitrile is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 109 mm Hg at 25 °C(5). Complete biodegradation of a low concentration of acrylonitrile was <2 days to 6 days depending on soil type with slow degradation reported in unacclimated soils exposed to high concentrations of acrylonitrile(6); these findings suggest that biodegradation may be an important environmental fate process in soil under certain conditions(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 29(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 0.25(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that acrylonitrile is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(4) based upon a Henry's Law constant of 1.38X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(5). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(4), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 7 hrs and 4 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(6), a BCF of 48(7) suggests bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate(SRC). Acrylonitrile was stable to aqueous hydrolysis in the pH range of 4-10 over a 10-day observation period(8) suggesting that hydrolyis is not important under environmental conditions (pH 5 to 9). Complete degradation in 6-20 days using various freshwater inoculums(8,9) suggests that biodegradation may be an important environmental fate process in water(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), acrylonitrile, which has a vapor pressure of 109 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase acrylonitrile 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 1.5 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 1.11X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3). The half-life for reaction with ozone in air is estimated to be 83 days(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 1.38X10-19 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(4). Acrylonitrile does not absorb UV light at wavelengths >290 nm(5) and, therefore, is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)

Questions this page answers

This official record identifies the substance as prohibited for cosmetic use in the stated market scope. Do not rely on a formulation containing this identity until the cited source, effective date and exact substance match have been verified.

A prohibition entry may contain no separate condition text because the regulatory outcome is the prohibition itself. IECIC listing is not blanket approval; absence may require the new cosmetic ingredient route, and restrictions are checked separately.

No. CAS helps resolve identity, but jurisdictions can classify the same substance differently and can apply different product scopes, limits, warnings and transition dates.
