GHS Classification: Flammable liquid (Category 2), Acute toxicity, Inhalation (Category 4), Skin irritation (Category 2), Eye irritation (Category 2A)
Label Elements: Signal word: Danger; Hazard pictograms: Flame, Exclamation Mark
Hazard Statements: Highly flammable liquid and vapor, Causes skin and serious eye irritation, May cause respiratory irritation
Precautionary Statements: Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces, Wear appropriate protective gear, Use only in well-ventilated areas, Store in tightly closed container
Chemical Name: Isobutyl Vinyl Ether
Concentration: ≥99% by weight
Stabilizer: Commonly contains small amount of hydroquinone or a similar inhibitor
Impurities: Low level of common organic volatiles
Inhalation: Remove affected person to fresh air immediately, provide artificial respiration if breathing stops, seek medical attention promptly
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing, wash skin with soap and water for at least 15 minutes, seek medical advice for persistent irritation
Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes, remove contact lenses if present and continue rinsing, consult a physician
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water, do not induce vomiting, give nothing by mouth if unconscious, seek immediate medical help
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide, use water spray to cool exposed containers
Specific Hazards: Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air, combustion can yield toxic fumes including carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide
Protective Equipment: Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective equipment
Special Precautions: Isolate area and keep upwind, use water spray to knock down vapor and protect personnel
Personal Precautions: Evacuate personnel to safe areas, avoid inhalation and direct contact, ventilate affected area
Environmental Precautions: Prevent release into sewers, drains, or waterways, contain spill using inert absorbent material
Cleanup Methods: Eliminate ignition sources, absorb spilled liquid with sand or other non-combustible absorbent, collect and dispose in accordance with local regulations, wash spill site after material pickup is complete
Handling: Use only non-sparking tools and explosion-proof equipment, avoid breathing vapors or contact with skin and eyes, work in well-ventilated areas, keep container tightly closed
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated space away from sources of ignition, oxidizers, acids, and direct sunlight, keep stabilized to avoid hazardous polymerization, monitor inhibitor levels during prolonged storage, segregate from incompatible materials
Occupational Exposure Limits: No specific OSHA or ACGIH limits set, minimize exposure as a precaution
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust ventilation, process enclosure, or other engineering controls to maintain air levels below recommended exposure limits
Personal Protective Equipment: Chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile or neoprene), splash-proof safety goggles, protective work clothing, respiratory protection in high vapor or spill situations (NIOSH-approved organic vapor respirator)
