3. Hazardous Identification
Harmful if swallowed. Methanol is produced on contact with water, which
may cause blindness or death.
May cause moderate irritation to skin. Prompt and thorough washing
with soap and water will reduce or eliminate potential dermal effects.
Irritating to respiratory tract. Inhalation may irritate the respiratory
tract. Prolonged inhalation may cause drowsiness.
Direct contact with eyes may cause moderate irritation.
4. First Aid Measures
Inhalation: Move exposed individual to fresh air. Administer Oxygen,
if needed. Call physician.
Skin Contact: Flush with water, and then wash with soap and water.
Eye Contact: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with flowing
water for at least 15 minutes.
Ingestion: Get medical attention.
Note to Physicians: This product reacts with water and moisture to form
methanol. The combination of visual disturbances, metabolic acidosis, and
formic acid in urine is evidence of methanol poisoning. The therapeutic
intravenous administration of ethanol (10mls/hr) allows methanol to be
preferentially oxidized and reduces production of methanol metabolites.
Acidosis must be treated with intravenous administration of sodium
bicarbonate and methanol elimination may be increased by hemodialysis, as
indicated. Treatment should be based on blood methanol levels and acid-
base balance.
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point, TCC: >61癈 (142癋)
Auto ignition: not determined
Do NOT use water jet; use dry chemicals
Suitable fire-extinguishing media: [OK] water fog, [OK] CO2, [OK] foam,
[OK] dry chemicals
Note: Avoid eye and skin content. Do not breathe fumes or inhale vapors.
Irritating fumes and organic acid vapors may be formed when material is
exposed to elevated temperature or open fires.
Keep containers cool.

6. Accidental Release Measures
Avoid all sources of ignition (e.g. naked lights, unprotected light bulbs,
electric hand tools).
Ventilate the area and avoid breathing vapors.
Recommended disposal: In a well ventilated area with adequate personal
protection, hydrolyze material by mixing with cold water. Resulting waste is
a viscous liquid containing methanol. Follow all chemical pollution control
regulations for land fill.
Wear protective clothing when dealing with spillage or fire.
For confined areas use self contained breathing apparatus.
Dispose of wastes and empty containers in accordance with regulations
made under the control of pollution acts and environmental protection acts.
Using adequate eye protection, collect spillage, where practicable, using
absorbent material, and transfer to a suitable container for hydrolysis and
disposal.
Keep away from drains, surface and ground water, and soil.
Do not allow spills to enter drains or watercourses.
Refer to "Exposure controls--Personal protection" and "Disposal
Considerations".
7. Handling and Storage
Handling: Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame.
Keep container closed.
The product may charge electrostatically.
Operators should wear clothing which does not generate static
(at least 60% natural fiber) and antistatic foot wear.
Do not breathe (vapor, mist, gas).
Use only with ventilation.
Do not get in eyes, or skin, or on clothing.
Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin.
Wash thoroughly after handling.
Protection as shown in "Exposure controls/ Personal protection".
Store in sealed containers.
Storage:
Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin and inhalation.
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame.
Store in a well-ventilated, dry place away from sources of heat
and direct sunshine.

8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Engineering Measures: Prevent vapor build up by providing adequate
ventilation during and after use.
An eye wash facility should be readily available.
