4. FIRST AID MEASURES

General advice
Take proper precautions to ensure your own health and safety before attempting rescue and providing first aid.
Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance. Move out of dangerous area.

Skin
Wash skin with soap and copious amounts of water. Seek medical attention.

Inhalation
Remove person to fresh air. Seek medical attention. Give oxygen or artificial respiration as needed.

Eyes
Thoroughly flush the eyes with large amounts of clean low-pressure water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally
lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Seek medical attention.

Ingestion
DO NOT induce vomiting. If vomiting does occur, have victim lean forward to prevent aspiration. Rinse mouth with
water. Seek medical attention. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious individual.

Note to Physician

 Necrosis is primary concern after prolonged inhalation of product. Monitor pH balance. If product was ingested,
activated charcoal and/or sodium sulfate will reduce absorption.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Suitable (and unsuitable) extinguishing media:
SMALL FIRE: Use dry chemicals, CO2, water spray or alcohol-resistant foam. LARGE FIRE: Use water spray,
water fog or alcohol-resistant foam. Cool all affected containers with flooding quantities of water.

Specific hazards arising from the chemical (e.g., nature of any hazardous combustion products):
Carbon oxides expected to be the primary hazardous combustion product.

Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters:

Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes. Keep
unopened containers cool by spraying with water.

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards:

●May produce a floating fire hazard.
●Static ignition hazard can result from handling and use.
●Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back.
●Vapors may settle in low or confined spaces.
Flammable Properties
Classification
OSHA/NFPA Class IB Flammable Liquid.
Flash point
-20°C (-4°F) Closed Cup
Autoignition temperature
465°C (869°F)

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
Do not inhale vapors, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel
to safe areas. Beware of vapors accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapors can accumulate in low
areas.

Environmental precautions:
Stop leak. Contain spill if possible and safe to do so. Prevent product from entering drains.

Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up:

Highly flammable liquid. Eliminate all sources of ignition. All equipment used when handling this product must be
grounded. A vapor suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors. Do not touch or walk through spilled material.
Contain spillage, and then collect with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous earth,

SDS: 1100 Revision Date: 11.8.19 Revision Number:5.0

Page 4 of 10
 vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to local / national regulations. Use clean non-sparking
tools to collect absorbed material.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Precautions for safe handling:
Do not get on skin or in eyes. Do not inhale vapor or mist. Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. Take
measures to prevent the buildup of electrostatic charge. Open and handle container with care. Metal containers
involved in the transfer of this material should be grounded and bonded.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilites:

Keep container tightly closed in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place. Containers which are opened must be
carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Consult local fire codes for additional storage information.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION

Control parameters, e.g., occupational exposure limit values or biological limit values:
Occupational Exposure Limits
Component Source Type Value Note
Acetone US (ACGIH) STEL 750 ppm
Acetone US (ACGIH) TWA 500 ppm

Appropriate engineering controls:

General room or local exhaust ventilation is usually required to meet exposure limit(s). Electrical equipment should
be grounded and conform to applicable electrical code.

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment:

Respiratory protection:
Where risk assessment shows air-purifying respirators are appropriate use a full-face respirator with multi-purpose
combination (US) or type ABEK (EN 14387) respirator cartridges as a backup to engineering controls. If the
respirator is the sole means of protection, use a full-face supplied air respirator. Use respirators and components
tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU).

Hand protection:
Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique (without touching
glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product. Dispose of contaminated gloves after use in
accordance with applicable laws and good laboratory practices. Wash and dry hands.

Eye protection:
Use chemical safety goggles and/or a full face shield where splashing is possible. Use equipment approved by
appropriate government standards, such as NIOSH (US) or EN166 (EU) Maintain eye wash fountain and
quick-drench facilities in work area.

 Skin and body protection:
Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls, as appropriate, to
prevent skin contact.

Hygiene measures:
Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks and at the end
of workday.
