First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Move person to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration; if by mouth to mouth use rescuer protection (pocket mask, etc). If breathing is difficult, oxygen should be administered by qualified personnel. Call a physician or transport to a medical facility.
Wash off with plenty of water.
Immediately flush eyes with water; remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue flushing eyes for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical attention without delay, preferably from an ophthalmologist.
If swallowed, seek medical attention. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel.
Immediate Medical Attention
Call a physician or transport to a medical facility. Obtain medical attention without delay, preferably from an ophthalmologist. If swallowed, seek medical attention.
Medical Treatment
Maintain adequate ventilation and oxygenation of the patient. Treatment of exposure should be directed at the control of symptoms and the clinical condition of the patient.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Water fog or fine spray. Dry chemical fire extinguishers. Carbon dioxide fire extinguishers. Foam. Alcohol resistant foams (ATC type) are preferred. General purpose synthetic foams (including AFFF) or protein foams may function, but will be less effective.
Do not use direct water stream. May spread fire.
Violent steam generation or eruption may occur upon application of direct water stream to hot liquids.
Keep people away. Isolate fire and deny unnecessary entry. Burning liquids may be extinguished by dilution with water. Do not use direct water stream. May spread fire. Burning liquids may be moved by flushing with water to protect personnel and minimize property damage.
Firefighter Protection
Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and protective fire fighting clothing (includes fire fighting helmet, coat, trousers, boots, and gloves). If protective equipment is not available or not used, fight fire from a protected location or safe distance.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
Isolate area. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering the area. Keep upwind of spill. Ventilate area of leak or spill. Use appropriate safety equipment.
Prevent from entering into soil, ditches, sewers, waterways and/or groundwater.
Absorb with materials such as: Sand. Dirt. Collect in suitable and properly labeled containers. Do not use water for cleanup.
Materials: Sand. Dirt.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid breathing vapor. Do not swallow. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep container closed. Use with adequate ventilation. Spills of these organic materials on hot fibrous insulations may lead to lowering of the autoignition temperatures possibly resulting in spontaneous combustion.
No specific requirements. The shelf life given is for unopened containers stored under moderate temperature conditions.
Wash thoroughly after handling.
