| TYPES OF HAZARD / EXPOSURE |
ACUTE HAZARDS / SYMPTOMS | PREVENTION | FIRE FIGHTING |
| FIRE | Not combustible. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. | In case of fire in the surroundings: NO hydrous agents, NO water. | |
| EXPLOSION | In case of fire: cool drums, etc., by spraying with water but avoid contact of the substance with water. | ||
| EXPOSURE | AVOID ALL CONTACT! | IN ALL CASES CONSULT A DOCTOR! | |
| Inhalation | Sore throat. Cough. Burning sensation. Shortness of breath. Laboured breathing. Symptoms may be delayed (see Notes). | Ventilation, local exhaust, or breathing protection. | Fresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer for medical attention. |
| Skin | Pain. Redness. Serious skin burns. | Protective gloves. Protective clothing. | Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. Refer for medical attention. |
| Eyes | Pain. Redness. 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 | Burning sensation. Abdominal pain. Shock or collapse. | Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. | Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer for medical attention. |
| SPILLAGE DISPOSAL | PACKAGING & LABELLING | Evacuate danger area! Consult an expert! Ventilation. Do NOT use water. First contain spillage before cleaning up. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable acid resistant containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in dry sand or inert absorbent and remove to safe place. Personal protection: complete protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. | C Symbol R: 14-34 S: (1/2-)7/8-26-36/37/39-45 UN Hazard Class: 8 UN Pack Group: II |
Do not transport with food and feedstuffs. |
| EMERGENCY RESPONSE | STORAGE | Transport Emergency Card: TEC (R)-80S1838 or 80GC1-II-X NFPA Code: H3; F0; R2; W |
Separated from food and feedstuffs. Dry. Well closed. |
| IMPORTANT DATA | Physical State; Appearance COLOURLESS TO LIGHT YELLOW LIQUID, WITH PUNGENT ODOUR. Chemical dangers Occupational exposure limits |
Routes of exposure The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation of its vapour and by ingestion. Inhalation risk Effects of short-term exposure Effects of long-term or repeated exposure |
| PHYSICAL PROPERTIES | ENVIRONMENTAL DATA | Boiling point: 136.4°C Melting point: -24.1°C Relative density (water = 1): 1.7 Solubility in water: reaction Vapour pressure, kPa at 21.3°C: 1.3 Relative vapour density (air = 1): 6.5 |
It is strongly advised that this substance does not enter the environment. |
| NOTES | Reacts violently with fire extinguishing agents such as water. Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is suggested. The symptoms of lung oedema 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. Immediate administration of an appropriate inhalation therapy by a doctor or a person authorized by him/her, should be considered. The decomposition products of this substance may cause effects on the environment. |
