TYPES OF
HAZARD / EXPOSURE |
ACUTE HAZARDS / SYMPTOMS | PREVENTION | FIRST AID / FIRE FIGHTING |
| FIRE |
Highly flammable. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire.
|
NO open flames, NO sparks, and NO smoking.
|
Powder, AFFF, foam, carbon dioxide.
|
| EXPLOSION |
Vapour/air mixtures are explosive.
|
Closed system, ventilation, explosion-proof electrical equipment and lighting. Do NOT use compressed air for filling, discharging, or handling.
|
In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water.

| EXPOSURE |
|
PREVENT GENERATION OF MISTS! STRICT HYGIENE!
|
|
| Inhalation |
Cough. Shortness of breath.
|
Local exhaust or breathing protection.
|
Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention.
|
| Skin |
Redness. Pain.
|
Protective gloves. Protective clothing.
|
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.
|
| Eyes |
Redness. Pain.
|
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 |
Burning sensation. Cough.
|
Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work.
|
Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Give plenty of water to drink. Refer for medical attention.
|
| SPILLAGE DISPOSAL | PACKAGING & LABELLING |
Collect leaking liquid in sealable containers. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent and remove to safe place. Do NOT wash away into sewer. (extra personal protection: chemical protection suit including self-contained breathing apparatus).

|
| IMPORTANT DATA | |
|
PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE:
COLOURLESS LIQUID , WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR. PHYSICAL DANGERS: The vapour mixes well with air, explosive mixtures are easily formed. CHEMICAL DANGERS: The substance decomposes on burning producing toxic fumes of nitrogen oxides. The solution in water is a medium strong base. Reacts violently with acids and oxidants. Attacks copper, tin, aluminium and zinc. OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: TLV not established. |
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE:
The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its vapour, through the skin and by ingestion. INHALATION RISK: No indication can be given about the rate in which a harmful concentration in the air is reached on evaporation of this substance at 20°C. EFFECTS OF SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE: The vapour irritates the eyes, the skin and the respiratory tract. |
| PHYSICAL PROPERTIES | |
