| TYPES OF HAZARD / EXPOSURE |
ACUTE HAZARDS / SYMPTOMS | PREVENTION | FIRST AID / FIRE FIGHTING |
| FIRE | Flammable. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. | NO open flames, NO sparks, and NO smoking. | Powder, alcohol-resistant foam, water spray, carbon dioxide. |
| EXPLOSION | Above 34°C explosive vapour/air mixtures may be formed. | Above 34°C closed system, ventilation, and explosion-proof electrical equipment. | In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water. |
| EXPOSURE | AVOID ALL CONTACT! | ||
| Inhalation | Burning sensation. Cough. Shortness of breath. Sore throat. Wheezing. | Ventilation, local exhaust, or breathing protection. | Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention. |
| Skin | Redness. Skin burns. Pain. | Protective gloves. Protective clothing. | Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. Refer for medical attention. |
| Eyes | Redness. Pain. Blurred vision. Severe deep burns. | Face shield, or eye protection in combination with breathing protection. | First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then take to a doctor. |
| Ingestion | Abdominal pain. Burning sensation. Shock or collapse. | Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. | Rinse mouth. Give one or two glasses of water to drink. Refer for medical attention. Do NOT induce vomiting. |
| SPILLAGE DISPOSAL | PACKAGING & LABELLING | Ventilation. Remove all ignition sources. Collect leaking liquid in covered containers. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent and remove to safe place. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. (Extra personal protection: complete protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus). | EU classification C Symbol R: 10-21/22-34-42/43 S: (1/2-)23-26-36/37/39-45 UN classification UN Hazard Class: 8 UN Subsidiary Risks: 3 UN Pack Group: II |
Do not transport with food and feedstuffs. |
| EMERGENCY RESPONSE | SAFE STORAGE | Transport Emergency Card: TEC (R)-80S1604 NFPA Code: H 3; F 2; R 0 |
Fireproof. Separated from strong oxidants, acids, chlrorinated organic compounds, food and feedstuffs. Dry. |
| IMPORTANT DATA | Physical State; Appearance COLOURLESS TO YELLOW HYGROSCOPIC LIQUID, WITH PUNGENT ODOUR. Chemical dangers Occupational exposure limits |
Routes of exposure The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation, through the skin and by ingestion. Inhalation risk Effects of short-term exposure Effects of long-term or repeated exposure |
| PHYSICAL PROPERTIES | ENVIRONMENTAL DATA | Boiling point: 117°C Melting point: 8.5°C Relative density (water = 1): 0.9 Solubility in water: miscible Vapour pressure, kPa at 20°C: 1.4 Relative vapour density (air = 1): 2.1 Relative density of the vapour/air-mixture at 20°C (air = 1): 1.01 Flash point: 34°C (c.c.) Auto-ignition temperature: 385°C Explosive limits, vol% in air: 2.5-16.6 Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: -1.2 |
The substance is harmful to aquatic organisms. |
| NOTES | The symptoms of asthma often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation are therefore essential. Anyone who has shown symptoms of asthma due to this substance should never again come into contact with this substance. Do NOT take working clothes home. Card has been partially updated in January 2008: see Ingestion First Aid. |
