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. NO contact with oxidizing agents.
|
Foam, powder, carbon dioxide.
|
| EXPLOSION |
Vapour/air mixtures are explosive.
|
Closed system, ventilation, explosion-proof electrical equipment and lighting. Prevent build-up of electrostatic charges (e.g., by grounding).
|
In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water.
|

| EXPOSURE |
|
PREVENT GENERATION OF MISTS!
|
|
| Inhalation |
Cough. Dizziness. Sore throat.
|
Ventilation, local exhaust, or breathing protection.
|
Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention.
|
| Skin |
Redness.
|
Protective gloves.
|
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.
|
| Eyes |
Redness. Pain.
|
Safety goggles, 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 |
|
Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work.
|
Rinse mouth. Rest.
|
| SPILLAGE DISPOSAL | PACKAGING & LABELLING |
Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent and remove to safe place. Do NOT wash away into sewer. (extra personal protection: filter respirator for organic gases and vapours).
|

UN Pack Group: II |
| EMERGENCY RESPONSE | STORAGE |
Transport Emergency Card: TEC (R)-30G30 NFPA Code: H 2; F 3; R 0;
|
Fireproof. Separated from oxidizing materials.

| IMPORTANT DATA | |
|
PHYSICAL STATE; APPEARANCE:
COLOURLESS LIQUID , WITH PUNGENT ODOUR. PHYSICAL DANGERS: The vapour is heavier than air and may travel along the ground; distant ignition possible. As a result of flow, agitation, etc., electrostatic charges can be generated. CHEMICAL DANGERS: The substance decomposes on heating and on burning producing toxic and irritating fumes (sulfur oxides). Reacts violently with oxidizing materials, including fuming nitric acid. OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS: TLV not established. |
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE:
The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its vapour. 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 substance irritates the eyes and the skin. |
| PHYSICAL PROPERTIES | |

Boiling point: 84°C
Melting point: -38°C Relative density (water = 1): 1.06 Solubility in water: none Vapour pressure, kPa at 12.5°C: 5.3 Relative vapour density (air = 1): 2.9 |
Flash point: -1°C
Auto-ignition temperature: 395°C Explosive limits, vol% in air: 1.5-12.5 Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: 1.81 |
