EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Warning! Harmful if swallowed, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin. Causes eye,
skin, and respiratory tract irritation. May cause central nervous system depression.
May cause cardiac disturbances. The toxicological properties of this material have not
been fully investigated.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation. May cause chemical conjunctivitis.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. Most nitrile compounds are well absorbed through intact skin,
and may cause delayed onset of symptoms following exposure by this route.

Ingestion:
May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause
cardiac disturbances. May cause central nervous system depression.
Inhalation:
Causes respiratory tract irritation. Inhalation may result in symptoms similar to
cyanide poisoning which include tachypnea, hyperpnea (abnormally rapid or deep
breathing), and dyspnea (labored breathing) followed rapidly by respiratory
depression. Pulmonary edema may occur.
Chronic:
May be metabolized to cyanide which in turn acts by inhibiting cytochrome oxidase
impairing cellular respiration. Exposure to small amounts of cyanide compounds over
long periods of time is reported to cause loss of appetite, headache, weakness,
nausea, dizziness, and symptoms of irritation of the upper respiratory tract and eyes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eyes:
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes. Get medical aid.
Skin:
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes
while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid immediately. Wash
clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
If swallowed, do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel.
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Get medical aid. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing
has ceased apply artificial respiration using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device
such as a bag and a mask.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively.

SECTION 5- FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand,
MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. During a fire,
irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or
combustion. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Containers may
explode when heated. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution.
Approach fire from upwind to avoid hazardous vapors and toxic decomposition
products. Combustion by-products include oxides of nitrogen and hydrogen cyanide.
Extinguishing Media:
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or water spray. For large fires, use
dry chemical, carbon dioxide, alcohol-resistant foam, or water spray. Cool containers
with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
General Information:
Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks: Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal
container. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective
Equipment section. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Provide ventilation
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Handling:
Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and
clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use with
adequate ventilation. Wash clothing before reuse.
Storage:
Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away
from incompatible substances.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Engineering Controls: Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate ventilation to keep
airborne concentrations low.
Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes:
Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles as described by
OSHA's eye and face protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European Standard
EN166.
Skin:
Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin exposure.
