First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Using proper respiratory protection, immediately remove the affected victim from exposure. Administer artificial respiration if breathing is stopped. Keep at rest. Call for prompt medical attention.
Flush with large amounts of water; use soap if available. Remove grossly contaminated clothing, including shoes, and launder before reuse.
Flush eyes with large amounts of water until irritation subsides. If irritation persists, get medical attention.
If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting. Keep at rest. Get prompt medical attention.
Immediate Medical Attention
Call for prompt medical attention.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Carbon dioxide, foam, dry chemical and water fog. Water can be used to cool fire exposed containers
This liquid is volatile and gives off invisible vapors. Either the liquid or vapor may settle in low areas or travel some distance along the ground or surface to ignition sources where they may ignite or explode. Combustible Liquid can form combustible mixtures at temperatures at or above the flashpoint.
Use water spray to cool fire exposed surfaces and to protect personnel. Isolate "fuel" supply from fire. Use foam, dry chemical, or water spray to extinguish fire. Avoid spraying water directly into storage containers due to danger of boilover.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Shut off source taking normal safety precautions. Take measures to minimize the effects on ground water. Recover by pumping (use an explosion proof or hand pump) or contain spilled material with sand or other suitable absorbent and remove mechanically into containers.
No respiratory protection should be needed
use self-contained breathing apparatus or air-purifying respiratory protection
Prevent material from entering sewers, water sources or low lying areas; advise the relevant authorities if it has, or if it contaminates soil/vegetation.
Recover by pumping or contain spilled material with sand or other suitable absorbent and remove mechanically into containers. Remove from the surface by skimming or with suitable absorbents.
Materials: sand or other suitable absorbent

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Keep container closed. Handle and open containers with care.
Keep containers closed when not in use. Do not store in open or unlabelled containers. Store in a cool, well ventilated place, away from strong oxidizing agents and combustible materials. Do not store near heat, sparks, flame or strong oxidants.
Do not store near heat, sparks, flame or strong oxidants. Use proper bonding and/or grounding procedure.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
The use of local exhaust ventilation is recommended to control process emissions near the source. Laboratory samples should be handled in a lab hood. Provide mechanical ventilation of confined spaces. See respiratory protection recommendations.
chemical resistant gloves
Use proper protection – safety glasses as a minimum. For open systems where contact is likely, wear safety glasses with side shields. Where contact may occur, wear safety glasses with side shields.
Where concentrations in air may exceed the limits given in this Section and engineering, work practice or other means of exposure reduction are not adequate, NIOSH approved respirators may be necessary to prevent overexposure by inhalation.
wear long sleeves, and chemical resistant gloves, protective clothing and footwear
