Guidance on Safe Use
Administrative data
First-aid measures
Eyes: If in eyes rinse cautiously with water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses if easy to do so. Continue rinsing. Seek medical attention.
Skin: Immediately take off all contaminated clothing. Wash thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes. Wash contaminated clothes before reuse. Seek immediate medical attention.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Call a physician if you feel unwell. Monitor for respiratory distress. Apply artificial respiration if not breathing.
Ingestion: If swallowed call a poison center if you feel unwell. Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting by use of emetics. Seek medical attention.
Fire-fighting measures
Extinguishing media:
- Dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide, and alcohol resistant foam.
- Water spray can be effective in cooling down the fire-exposed containers and knocking down the vapours.
- Water jets may be used to flush spills away and dilute the same to non-flammable mixtures fog or alcohol-resistant foam by directing streams to the periphery of the fires to prevent spread. Do not permit water to get inside containers.
Advice for firefighters:
- Evacuate the area and fight fires from a safe distance.
- If tank, rail car or tank truck is involved in a fire, ISOLATE for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions; also, consider initial evacuation for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions or as per locally valid procedures.
- Fire-fighters must wear Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA).
- Chemical is water-soluble. Report any run-off of firewater’s contaminated with this chemical as per local and federal procedures applicable.
Accidental release measures
Exposure Control and emergency control :
- Wear protective clothing, full boots, impervious gloves, safety glasses and Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA).
- Alert Emergency Responders and tell them location and nature of hazard.
- Shut off all possible sources of ignition and increase ventilation.
- Avoid breathing vapors and contact with skin and eyes.
Environmental precautions:
- Clean up all spills immediately following relevant Standard Operating Procedures.
- Prevent spillage from entering drains or water and watercourses.
- Inform authorities in event of contamination of any public sewers, drains or water bodies.
- Collect recoverable product into labeled containers for recycling, recovery or disposal.
- Spread area with lime or absorbent material, and leave for at least 1 hour before washing.
Clean up methods:
- Clean up all tools and equipment.
- Decontaminate all equipment.
Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling:
- Avoid breathing dust/mist.
- Wear protective gloves/clothing and eye/face protection.
- Wash hands, eyes and face thoroughly after handling.
- Ground and secure containers when dispensing or pouring product.
- Avoid contact with incompatible materials.
- When handling,DO NOT eat, drink or smoke.
- Launder contaminated clothing before re-use.
- If on skin or hair, IMMEDIATELY remove all contaminated clothing and rinse/shower with plenty of water.
- Use in a well ventilated place/Use protective clothing commensurate with exposure levels.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities:
- Store in a flame proof area.
- Store at ambient temperature in a well ventilated place.
- Store away from incompatible materials.
- Keep securely closed when not in use.

Exposure controls / personal protection
Exposure Limits Values:
- NIOSH: None listed
- ACGIH: None listed
- OSHA PELs: None listed
- AIHA WELs: None listed
Engineering Controls:
Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the relevant airborne concentrations below their respective occupational exposure limits. Local ventilation is usually preferred. Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location.
Personal Protection: Protective clothing should be selected specifically for the working place, depending on concentration and quantity of the hazardous substances handled. The resistance of the protective clothing to chemicals should be ascertained with the respective supplier.
- Hands: The protective gloves to be used must comply with the specifications of EC directive 89/686/EEC and the resultant standard EN374, for example KCL 740 Dermatril® (full contact), 740 Dermatril® (splash contact).
- Eyes: Safety goggles/ Chemical Safety glasses and Face shield.
- Clothing: Boots and clothing to prevent contact.
- Respirator: Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29CFR 1910.134 or European Standard EN149. Always use a NIOSH or European Standard EN 149 approved respirator when necessary.
Stability and reactivity
Reactivity: It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid. It has characteristic odor and is partially soluble in water; highly soluble in methanol, ethanol and ethyl acetate in water.
Chemical stability:
- Stable under normal temperature and pressures.
- Hazardous Polymerization not expected.
Conditions to avoid:
- Ignition sources, excess heating.
Incompatible materials:
- Oxidizing and non oxidizing mineral acids, organic acids and aldehydes and strong bases.
Hazardous decomposition products:
- When heated it may produce hazardous combustion gases like Nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide.
Disposal considerations
- Burn in a chemical incinerator equipped with an afterburner and scrubber.
- Dispose of this material in accordance with standard practice for disposal of potentially hazardous materials as required by applicable federal, state or local laws. Note that disposal regulations may also apply to empty containers and equipment rinsates.
