Inhalation: Move person to fresh air, keep comfortable for breathing, seek medical attention if symptoms persist.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing, wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. Seek medical attention for persistent irritation.
Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do, continue rinsing, seek medical attention.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting, rinse mouth with water. If conscious, give water to dilute, seek immediate medical attention.
Most Important Symptoms: Respiratory irritation, skin redness, allergic reactions, headache, nausea.
Note to Physician: Treat symptomatically, monitor for chemical pneumonia due to aspiration risk.
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide, alcohol resistant foam. Use water spray to cool containers.
Specific Hazards: Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Container explosion risk under fire conditions. Dense smoke and toxic gases may be released.
Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Self-contained breathing apparatus and full combat gear recommended.
Special Procedures: Avoid run-off to sewers and water bodies, isolate containers from fire if possible without risk.
Personal Precautions: Evacuate unprotected personnel, ventilate area, eliminate all ignition sources, use non-sparking tools, avoid inhalation and skin contact.
Environmental Precautions: Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so, avoid discharge to drains, surface waters, or soil.
Cleanup Methods: Contain spill, absorb liquid with inert material (sand, diatomaceous earth), collect in proper container for disposal, wash spill area with water and detergent, ventilate area after cleanup.
Reference to Other Sections: Dispose of material in accordance with local, regional, national regulations.
Precautions for Safe Handling: Handle in well-ventilated areas, keep container closed when not in use, ground containers during transfer, avoid inhalation of vapor and contact with skin or eyes, wash hands after handling, do not use near heat sources or open flames.
Conditions for Safe Storage: Store in a tightly sealed container, in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from incompatible materials such as oxidizing agents, acids, or direct sunlight, protect from static discharge.
Storage Temperature: Store below 30°C (86°F).
Exposure Limits: OSHA PEL: Not established for mixed terpenes; ACGIH TLV (as turpentine): 20 ppm
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust or general dilution ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below exposure limits.
Personal Protective Equipment:
