Inhalation: Move person into fresh air, keep at rest, seek medical attention if symptoms develop or persist like coughing, throat irritation, or dizziness
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing, rinse skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, seek medical help for persistent irritation
Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes, remove contact lenses if easy, continue rinsing, get prompt medical evaluation if redness or pain continues
Ingestion: Rinse mouth thoroughly, do not induce vomiting, seek immediate medical attention, give nothing by mouth to an unconscious person
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder, alcohol-resistant foam, water spray
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Full water jet can spread flammable liquid
Hazards from Combustion: Fires involving this material can produce toxic fumes including nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide
Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Full protective gear and self-contained breathing apparatus, avoid inhaling vapors or combustion fumes
Specific Hazards: Vapor may travel and ignite at a distance, containers exposed to fire may explode due to pressure build-up
Personal Precautions: Evacuate area, ventilate space, eliminate all ignition sources, wear chemical splash goggles, gloves, and apron
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry into waterways, drains, soil or vegetation, inform local authorities if spill cannot be contained
Cleanup Methods: Absorb with inert material like sand or vermiculite, collect in closed containers, flush area with water after removal, properly dispose of waste
Precautions for Safe Handling: Avoid contact with skin, eyes, clothing, use only with adequate ventilation, keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames, use explosion-proof equipment, ground all containers
Conditions for Safe Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, keep container tightly closed, segregate from oxidizers, acids, and sources of ignition, do not store near food, beverages, or incompatible chemicals
Incompatible Materials: Acid chlorides, acid anhydrides, strong acids, oxidizing agents
Occupational Exposure Limits: No ACGIH or OSHA PEL specifically assigned, recommend maintaining exposures as low as possible
Engineering Controls: Use fume hoods, process enclosures, and good industrial hygiene practices
Personal Protective Equipment: Chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile, neoprene), safety goggles, lab coat or apron, in case of insufficient ventilation use approved organic vapor respirator
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands, face, and exposed skin before eating or drinking, launder contaminated clothing before reuse
