First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures
Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, trained personnel should give oxygen. Get medical attention immediately. Get medical attention. Place unconscious person on the side in the recovery position and ensure breathing can take place.
Eye contact:
Immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If easy to do, remove contact lenses. Get medical attention if symptoms persist.
Skin Contact:
Immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention if symptoms persist. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Destroy or thoroughly clean contaminated shoes.
Ingestion:
Wash out mouth with water. Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. If material has been swallowed and the exposed person is conscious, give small quantities of water to drink. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. If vomiting occurs, keep head low so that stomach content doesn't get into the lungs. Get medical attention. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get medical attention immediately. Maintain an open airway. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed:
Product may hydrolyse upon contact with body fluids in the gastrointestinal tract to produce additional methanol; therefore, consider the signs/symptoms of methanol poisoning and also observe the known latency period of several days!
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Hazards: No data available.
Treatment: No data available.
Fire-fighting measures
General Fire Hazards: Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media: Alcohol resistant foam. Carbon dioxide Dry chemical.
Unsuitable extinguishing media: Avoid water in straight hose stream; will scatter and spread fire.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture: In case of fire, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide may be formed.
Advice for firefighters
Special fire fighting procedures: Static electricity and formation of sparks must be prevented. All equipment used when handling the product must be grounded.
Special protective equipment for fire-fighters: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing.
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid contact with liquid and vapors. Use personal protective equipment.
Environmental Precautions:
Do not allow runoff to sewer, waterway or ground.
Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:
Absorb spillage with suitable absorbent material.
Reference to other sections:
Remove sources of ignition. In case of spills, beware of slippery floors and surfaces.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling:
Do not taste or swallow. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Wash hands after handling. Provide adequate ventilation. Avoid inhalation of vapors and spray mists.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.
Specific end use(s): No data available.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Control Parameters
Occupational Exposure Limits: None of the components have assigned exposure limits.
Biological Limit Values: None.
Exposure controls
Appropriate Engineering Controls: Provide eyewash station and safety shower. General (mechanical) room ventilation is expected to be satisfactory if handled at low temperatures or in covered equipment. Provide adequate general and local exhaust ventilation.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
General information: Use only in well-ventilated areas. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using the product. Wash hands after handling. Practice good housekeeping.
Eye/face protection: Safety glasses with side-shields conforming to EN166
Skin protection
Hand Protection: Advice: Protective gloves made of : Neoprene Nitrile rubber. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
Other: Safety shoes Wear suitable protective clothing.
Respiratory Protection: Respirator with a vapour filter (EN 141)
Hygiene measures: Do not breathe vapour/aerosol. When using do not eat, drink or smoke. Use only with adequate ventilation. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Environmental exposure controls: No release to wastewater from process as such, wastewater emissions limited to release generated from final equipment cleaning step using water.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity: No data available.
Chemical Stability: No data available.
Possibility of hazardous reactions: Hazardous polymerisation does not occur.
Conditions to avoid: Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame.
Incompatible Materials: Reaction with water or other aqueous media is rapid and exothermic. The addition of small amounts of water (in the range of 2-15%) can produce an exothermic reaction which generates alcohol to the extent that the resulting solution can reach a temperature which exceeds the flash point of the new solution. If a water solution is desired, add the product to water, and not vice versa.
Hazardous Decomposition Products: In case of fire, gives off (emits): Carbon oxides Oxides of silicon. Carbon monoxide is highly toxic if inhaled; carbon dioxide in sufficient concentrations can act as an asphyxiant. Acute overexposure to the products of combustion may result in irritation of the respiratory tract.
Disposal considerations
Waste treatment methods
General information: See Section 8 for information on appropriate personal protective equipment. The generation of waste should be avoided or minimized wherever possible. Do not discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. Dispose of waste and residues in accordance with local authority requirements.
Disposal methods: Can be incinerated when in compliance with local regulations.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
