| 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 oxidants. | Powder, alcohol-resistant foam, water in large amounts, carbon dioxide. |
| EXPLOSION | Vapour/air mixtures are explosive. Risk of fire and explosion on contact with oxidants. | 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 | AVOID ALL CONTACT! | IN ALL CASES CONSULT A DOCTOR! | |
| Inhalation | Cough. Sore throat. See Notes. | Ventilation, local exhaust, or breathing protection. | Fresh air, rest. Refer immediately for medical attention. |
| Skin | MAY BE ABSORBED! See NOTES | Protective gloves. Protective clothing. | First rinse with plenty of water, then remove contaminated clothes and rinse again. Refer immediately for medical attention. |
| Eyes | Redness. Pain. | Face shield and 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 | See NOTES | Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. Wash hands before eating. | Rinse mouth. Refer immediately for medical attention. |
| SPILLAGE DISPOSAL | PACKAGING & LABELLING | Evacuate danger area! Consult an expert! Personal protection: complete protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Collect leaking liquid in sealable containers. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent and remove to safe place. Do NOT absorb in saw-dust or other combustible absorbents. | EU classification T Symbol N Symbol R: 45-23/24/25-51/53 S: 53-45-61 Note: E UN classification UN Hazard Class: 6.1 UN Subsidiary Risks: 3 UN Pack Group: I GHS classification Signal: Danger Flame-Skull-Health haz Highly flammable liquid and vapour Fatal if swallowed Fatal in contact with skin Fatal if inhaled Causes eye irritation Suspected of causing genetic defects May cause cancer Causes damage to liver and kidneys through prolonged or repeated exposure |
Do not transport with food and feedstuffs. |
| EMERGENCY RESPONSE | SAFE STORAGE | Transport Emergency Card: TEC (R)-61GTF1-1 | Fireproof. Separated from strong oxidants. Well closed. Store in an area without drain or sewer access. |
| IMPORTANT DATA | Physical State; Appearance COLOURLESS FUMING AND HYGROSCOPIC LIQUID, WITH PUNGENT ODOUR. TURNS YELLOW ON EXPOSURE TO AIR. Physical dangers 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: 81°C Melting point: -9°C Density: 0.83 g/cm³ Solubility in water, g/100 ml at 25°C: 100 Vapour pressure, kPa at 25°C: 9 Relative vapour density (air = 1): 2.07 Relative density of the vapour/air-mixture at 20°C (air = 1): 1.1 Flash point: < 5°C Explosive limits, vol% in air: 2.4 - 20 Octanol/water partition coefficient as log Pow: -0.54 (estimated) |
This substance may be hazardous in the environment; special attention should be given to fish. |
| NOTES | Insufficient data are available on the effect of this substance on human health, therefore utmost care must be taken. Rinse contaminated clothes with plenty of water because of fire hazard. Environmental effects from the substance have not been investigated. Data on similar substances suggest that there may be environmental effects of this substance. |
