1-Hexen-3-one, 1-(2,6,6-trimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-yl)-

Guidance on Safe Use

First-aid measures

In case of inhalation:

Move affected person into fresh air, keep warm and allow to rest.

In case of skin (or hair) contact:

Wash immediately with water and soap. Remove contaminated, saturated clothing immediately.

In case of eye contact:

Flush immediately with plenty of flowing water for 10 to 15 minutes holding eyelids apart and consult an ophthalmologist if problems persist.

In case of ingestion:

Rinse mouth immediately and give plenty of water to drink.

Fire-fighting measures

Suitable extinguishing media:

Water spray jet, dry extinguishing powder, carbon dioxide (CO2); alcohol resistant foam

Unsuitable extinguishing media:

Full water jet.

Special hazards arising from the substance:

In case of fire may be liberated: carbon monoxide (CO), toxic pyrolysis products, fumes.

Advice for fire-fighters:

Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical protective clothing.

Keep containers cool by spaying with water if exposed to fire.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:

for non-emergency personnel:

Provide adequate ventilation.

Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.

Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.

Remove all sources of ignition, avoid heat and sparks.

for emergency responders:

In case of large amounts wear a self-contained breathing apparatus and chemical protective clothing. No further precautions.

Environmental precautions:

Do not allow to enter drains/surface water/ground-water.

Do not allow to enter into soil/subsoil.

Inform the authorities, if this is not possible.

Treat the recovered material as prescribed in the section on waste disposal.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up:

For large amount: Dike spillage. Pump off product.

For residues: Pick up with suitable absorbent material

Suitable material for taking up: universal binder.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling:

      Use only in well-ventilated areas. Use only explosion proof equipment.

      It is recommended to design all work processes always so that the following is excluded:

      Inhalation, skin contact, eye contact.

      Vapours can form an explosive mixture with air, avoid formation of aerosols.

      Only use the material in places where open light, fire and other flammable sources can be kept away.

      Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking.

      Take precautionary measures against static discharges.

      Vent waste air to atmosphere only through suitable separators. Do not allow to enter drains.

      

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

      Store in the original container. Keep container tightly closed.

      Keep in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, protected from direct sun light.

      Provide solvent-resistant and impermeable floor.

Exposure controls / personal protection

Personal protective equipment:

Eye / face protection:

Suitable eye protection: Eye glasses with side protection (according to EN 166).

Skin protection:

- Hand protection:

- By long-term hand contact:

  Suitable gloves type (recommended protective index 6, corresponding >480 min of permeation time according to EN 374):

  Butyl caoutchouc (butyl rubber), 0.7 mm coating thickness

- By short-term hand contact:

  Suitable gloves type (recommended at least protective index 2, corresponding >30 min of permeation time according to EN 374):

  CR (chloroprene rubber) 0.5 mm coating thickness

Supplementary note:

The specifications are based on literature and information of glove manufacturer or are derived from similar substances by analogy. Due to many conditions (e.g. temperature) it must be considered, that the practical usage of a chemical-protective glove in practice may be much shorter than the determined permeation time.

For special purposes, it is recommended to check the resistance to chemicals of the protective gloves mentioned above together with the supplier of these gloves.

Respiratory protection:

If ventilation insufficient, wear respiratory protection short term.

Filtering device (full mask or mouthpiece) with filter A (EN 14387).

Environmental exposure controls:

Do not allow to enter drains/surface water/ground-water.

Do not allow to enter into soil/subsoil.
