First Aid Measures

Ingestion

If swallowed, wash out mouth with water provided person is conscious. Call a physician.

Inhalation

If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.

Skin

In case of contact, immediately wash skin with soap and copious amounts of water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Call a physician.

Eyes

In case of contact with eyes, flush with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Assure adequate flushing by separating the eyelids with fingers. Call a physician.

Handling and Storage

Storage

Keep tightly closed. Keep away from heat and open flame. Store in a cool dry place.

Hazards Identification

Skin

May cause irritation.

Eyes

May cause irritation.

Hazards

Emits toxic fumes under fire conditions.

Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

Personal Protection

Compatible chemical-resistant gloves. Chemical safety goggles. Protective clothing.

Respirators

Use respirators and components tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU). Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face respirator with multi-purpose combination (US) or type ABEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator.

Exposure Effects

May be harmful by inhalation, ingestion, or skin absorption.

Fire Fighting Measures

Flash Point

72

Fire Fighting

For small (incipient) fires, use media such as 'alcohol' foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide. For large fires, apply water from as far as possible. Use very large quantities (flooding) of water applied as a mist or spray; solid streams of water may be ineffective. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes.

Fire Potential

Combustible liquid.

Accidental Release Measures

Small spills/leaks

Cover with dry lime or soda ash, pick up, keep in a closed container, and hold for waste disposal. Ventilate area and wash spill site after material pickup is complete.

Stability and Reactivity

Incompatibilities

Strong oxidizing agents, Acid chlorides, Acid anhydrides.

Decomposition

Oxides of carbon and nitrogen.
