4 FIRST AID MEASURES
Inhalation: Remove patient to fresh air. If patient is having difficulty breathing seek immediate medical
attention. If not breathing, clear airway and start mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration (or use
bag-mask respirator). Get immediate medical attention.
Skin Contact: Wash affected areas with soap and water. If irritation develops, seek medical attention.
Eye Contact: Flush eyes with water for 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses prior to water flush. Seek medical
attention.
Ingestion: Give patient 3 - 4 glasses of water. DO NOT induce vomiting. Get immediate medical attention.
DO NOT give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Note to physician:
Sudden death due to ventricular fibrillation has been reported from acute inhalation in chronic solvent abusers. Treat
patient supportively. Life support measures should be provided because CNS depression, cardiopulmonary failure,
and metabolic acidosis have been reported in massive overexposures.
5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point: -6.1癈 (21癋)
Flash Point Method: Closed Cup
Autoignition Temperature: Lowest known value is 404 癈 (759.2 癋, for methyl ethyl ketone).
LEL: 2%
UEL: 13%
General Hazard:
Flammable liquid, insoluble in water.
Highly flammable in presence of open flames and sparks. Flammable in the presence of heat and/or oxidizing materials.
Risks of explosion of the product in the presence of mechanical impact is not available.
Risks of explosion of the product in the presence of static discharge: Static discharge may serve as an ignition source to
closed containers of product.
For small spill: use dry chemicals, CO2, or alcohol foam.
For large spill: use dry chemicals, CO2, or foam. Cool containing vessels with water jet in order to prevent pressure build-up,
autoignition or explosion.

Firefighting equipment:
Use self contained breathing apparatus with a full face piece and pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode.
Special Remarks:
Container explosion may occur under fire conditions or when heated.
All electrical equipment in the area must be rated for flammable liquids (Dispensing - Class I, Division 1; Storage - Class 1,
Division 2). Ground all containers of this material.
Hazardous products of combustion include carbon oxides (CO, CO2).
6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Small Spill and Leak: Absorb with an inert material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container.
Large Spill and Leak: Flammable liquid insoluble in water. Eliminate all ignition sources. Stop leak if without risk.
Prevent entry into sewers, basements or confined areas; dike if needed. Absorb with an inert material and put the
spilled material in an appropriate waste diposal container. Do not use metal tools or equipment.
7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling Precautions: To avoid fire or explosion, dissipate static electricity during transfer by bonding and
grounding containers and equipment before transferring material. Use explosion-proof
electrical (ventilating, lighting and material handling) equipment. Avoid breathing vapors.
Handle in well ventilated areas. After handling always wash hands thoroughly with soap
and water. Avoid contact with skin or eyes. When using do not drink or smoke.
Storage Requirements: Flammable materials should be stored in a separate safety cabinet or room. Store and use
away from heat, sparks, open flame, or any other ignition source. Keep in a cool, well
ventilated area. Ground all equipment containing material. Keep out of reach of children.
8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne
Engineering Controls:
concentrations of vapors below their respective threshold limit value. Ensure that a
working eyewash and safety shower are in the work area.
Protective Equipment: Wear splash goggles or safety glasses with side shields, synthetic apron, and
neoprene or rubber gloves. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear an approved
(NIOSH) repirator with organic vapor cartridges with dust/mist pre-filter.
