  • Toxicity Summary: After 4,4'-Methylenedianiline enters to our body, it is transported in the blood or stored in tissues. The N-N-acetylation of the compound leads to the formation of some toxic derivatives. The liver and thyroid are the targets of 4,4'-methylenedianiline in animals.

  • Environmental Bioconcentration: BCF values ranging from 3.0 to 14 were measured for 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane (200 ug/L) in carp (4.5% lipid content) after a 6 week period(1). According to a classification scheme(2), these BCF values suggest the bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), Koc values ranging from 3825 to 5681(2), indicate that 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane is expected to have slight to no mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 5.30X10-11 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), based upon its vapor pressure, 2.03X10-7 mm Hg(3), and water solubility, 1.00E+3(4). 4,4'-Diaminodiphenylmethane is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(3). A 0% of theoretical BOD using activated sludge in the Japanese MITI test(5) suggests that biodegradation will not be an important environmental fate process in soil(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
  • Environmental Fate: AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), measured Koc values ranging from 3825 to 5681(2), indicate that 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 5.30X10-11 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 2.03X10-7 mm Hg(4), and water solubility, 1.00E+3(5). According to a classification scheme(6), BCF values of 3.0 to 14(7) suggest the bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). 4,4'-Diaminodiphenylmethane, present at 100 mg/L, reached 0% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test(7), suggesting that biodegradation will not be an important fate process in the aquatic environment(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), 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane, which has a vapor pressure of 2.03X10-7 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), will exist in both the vapor and particulate phases in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane 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 12.8 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 3.00X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3). Particulate-phase 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane may be removed from the air by wet or dry deposition(SRC). 4,4'-Diaminodiphenylmethane contains chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(4) and therefore may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).
