General Advice: Seek medical attention for any exposure effects.
Inhalation: Move person to fresh air. Keep at rest. Provide artificial respiration if not breathing. Get medical aid if symptoms persist.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical advice if irritation develops.
Eye Contact: Rinse eyes cautiously with water for several minutes, holding eyelids open. Remove contact lenses if present and easy. Continue rinsing. Get medical attention.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth with water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call poison control or a doctor immediately.
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray (use water spray for cooling exposed containers only)
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Do not use high pressure water jet
Specific Hazards: Vapors can form explosive mixtures with air. Containers may explode in heat of fire. Decomposition releases toxic gases (nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide).
Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus, full body protective clothing. Avoid inhaling fumes.
Fire-Fighting Instructions: Fight fire from safe distance. Prevent entry of spilled material into waterways or sewers.
Personal Precautions: Evacuate area. Avoid breathing vapors. Wear appropriate PPE including gloves, goggles, and respirator.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry into drains, surface water, and soil.
Methods for Cleaning Up: Absorb spill with inert material (sand, diatomite). Use non-sparking tools. Collect in chemical waste containers. Dispose according to local regulations. Ventilate affected area.
Emergency Procedures: Remove sources of ignition. Warn others of chemical hazard.
Handling: Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Do not breathe vapors. Work in well-ventilated area. Use non-sparking tools. Keep containers tightly closed.
Storage: Store away from sources of ignition in a cool, dry, ventilated area. Keep away from incompatible materials (oxidizing agents, acids). Keep container tightly sealed. Store in approved chemical storage facilities. Segregate from food and drink.
Exposure Limits: No defined occupational exposure limits for this compound. Use exposure limits for structurally related substances as a guideline.
Engineering Controls: Use exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low. Emergency showers and eyewash stations required.
Personal Protective Equipment: Chemical resistant gloves (nitrile recommended), safety goggles, lab coat, face shield if splash hazard.
Respiratory Protection: Use NIOSH-approved respirator in absence of adequate ventilation or if exposure thresholds are exceeded.
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands thoroughly after use. Do not eat, drink, or smoke while using this chemical.
