Specific Hazards: Evolution of oxides of nitrogen, carbon monoxide among combustion byproducts
Protective Equipment: Wear breathing apparatus, full chemical suit, stay upwind to avoid inhalation
Special Procedures: Cool containers exposed to heat with water spray, evacuate surrounding areas as fumes accumulate, avoid firefighting runoff entering sewers
Personal Precautions: Avoid contact with eyes, skin, clothing, wear gloves and goggles
Environmental Precautions: Prevent further leakage or spillage, do not allow entry into surface water, sewers, soil
Methods of Cleanup: Absorb with inert dry material, shovel into suitable chemical waste container, ventilate affected area, use appropriate PPE
Reference to Other Sections: Review disposal and protective measures for waste handling before collecting residue
Handling: Operate in well-ventilated space, ground containers during transfer, avoid static discharge, avoid incompatible substances including strong oxidants
Storage: Keep containers tightly closed, store in dry and cool location, segregate from acids, limit access to trained staff, label drums clearly, keep away from direct sunlight or heat sources
Hygiene Practices: Wash hands after handling, do not eat, drink, or smoke in working areas, launder contaminated clothes separately
Exposure Limits: Workplace exposure limits not established globally; follow national regulations
Engineering Controls: Mechanical ventilation, fume hoods, use of sealed transfer lines, automate handling where feasible
Personal Protection: Nitrile rubber gloves, safety goggles, face shields, chemical resistant clothing as routine, appropriate respirator in case of high airborne concentration
Monitoring Procedures: Periodic air quality checks, leak detectors near storage and operation zones
Appearance: Colorless to pale yellow liquid

Conditions to Avoid: Heating above decomposition point, direct sunlight, sparks, moisture ingress
Materials to Avoid: Strong acids, strong oxidizers, certain halogenated agents
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Nitrogen oxides, carbon oxides, toxic organic fumes
Possibility of Hazardous Reactions: Unlikely under normal use; strong oxidizers may present runaway reaction risk
Acute Toxicity: Oral (rat) LD50: estimated 405 mg/kg; skin and inhalation data insufficient
Skin Corrosion/Irritation: Moderate irritation in studies
Eye Damage/Irritation: Severe eye irritation with redness, tearing, pain
Respiratory Sensitization: Prolonged exposure irritates nose and throat, may worsen asthma
Carcinogenicity: Not listed by IARC, NTP, OSHA
Mutagenicity/Reproductive Toxicity: No strong evidence in peer studies
Long-term Exposure: Possible cumulative organ effects not adequately studied; chronic inhalation discouraged
Environmental Fate: Biodegradable by typical wastewater treatment methods, does not persist in environment
Aquatic Toxicity: Moderately toxic to aquatic organisms, fish and invertebrates can be affected over chronic exposures
Bioaccumulation: Not likely due to partial water solubility and rapid breakdown
Mobility in Soil: Leaching unlikely, binds moderately to organic content
Other Adverse Effects: Avoid release into waterways, limit potential for long-term environmental impact by rapid containment and removal
Waste Treatment Methods: Incinerate under controlled conditions in licensed facility, never pour into sewer or environment
