If swallowed: Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Obtain medical attention.
4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
Acute Health Hazards
Symptoms/Injuries: Harmful if inhaled. Causes serious eye irritation. May cause drowsiness and dizziness. Asphyxia by lack of oxygen: risk of death.
Symptoms/Injuries After Inhalation: High concentrations may cause central nervous system depression such as dizziness, vomiting, numbness, drowsiness, headache, and similar narcotic symptoms. Inhalation is likely to cause adverse health effects including, but not limited to: irritation, difficulty breathing, and unconsciousness. In elevated concentrations, may cause asphyxiation, central nervous system effects, and increased pulse, mood changes, tremors, cyanosis, muscular weakness, narcosis, numbness of the extremities, unconsciousness and death.
Symptoms/Injuries After Skin Contact: Contact with gas/liquid escaping the container can cause dermatitis and defatting.
Symptoms/Injuries After Eye Contact: Contact causes mild irritation with redness, tearing, and blurred vision.
4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
If exposed or concerned, get medical advice and attention. If medical advice is needed, have product container or label at hand.
SECTION 5: Fire-fighting measures
5.1 Suitable extinguishing media
Dry chemical, foam, or carbon dioxide (CO2).
5.2 Specific hazards arising from the chemical
Explosion Hazard: Container may explode in heat of fire. Heat may build pressure, rupturing closed containers, spreading fire and increasing risk of burns and injuries. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel considerable distance to an ignition source and flash back to source of vapors.
Incompatibility: Bases, oxidizing and reducing agents, phophorus oxychloride, acids, caustics, alkalis, and some plastics. Increased risk of fire or explosion. Keep away from sparks, open flames, and hot surfaces. No smoking. Do not spray on open flame or other ignition source.
5.3 Special protective actions for fire-fighters
Precautionary Fire Measures: Exercise caution when fighting any chemical fire.
Firefighting Instructions: Use dry chemical, foam, or carbon dioxide (CO2). Do not breathe fumes from fire or vapors from decomposition. Do NOT fight fire when fire reaches containers. Evacuate area. Fight fire remotely due to the risk of explosion. Shut off all sources of ignition. Use water spray or fog for cooling exposed containers.
Protection During Firefighting: Do not enter fire area without proper protective equipment, including respiratory protection. Wear NIOSH-approved Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus with a full face piece operated in a positive pressure demand mode with full body protective clothing when fighting fires.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Carbon oxide(s) and various hydrocarbons.
Further information
Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or water courses.
SECTION 6: Accidental release measures
6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
General Measures: Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not breathe vapors, spray, mist, gas. Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames, and other ignition sources. No smoking.
For Non-Emergency Personnel
Protective Equipment: Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
Emergency Procedures: Evacuate unnecessary personnel. Stop leak if safe to do so.
For Emergency Personnel
Protective Equipment: Equip cleanup crew with proper protection.
Emergency Procedure: Eliminate ignition sources first, then ventilate the area. Evacuate unnecessary personnel, isolate, and ventilate area. Upon arrival at the scene, a first responder is expected to recognize the presence of dangerous goods, protect oneself and the public, secure the area, and call for the assistance of trained personnel as soon as conditions permit.
6.2 Environmental precautions
Prevent entry to sewers and public waters. Avoid release to the environment.
6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
For Containment: Ventilate the area. Contain any spills with dikes or absorbents to prevent further migration and entry into sewers or streams. As an immediate precautionary measure, isolate spill or leak area in all directions.
Methods for Cleaning Up: Clean up spills immediately and dispose of waste safely. Eliminate all ignition sources. Ventilate area. Stop the ignition source of the release, if safe to do so. Consider the use of water spray to disperse vapors. Isolate the area until gas has dispersed. Ventilate and gas test area before entering. Take up liquid spill into absorbent material. Transfer spilled material to a suitable container for disposal. Contact competent authorities after a spill.
Waste Disposal: Dispose of in accordance with local, regional, national, and international regulations. Containers may be hazardous when empty. Do not flame cut, braze, or weld. Product should be fully characterized prior to disposal (40 CFR 261).
Reference to other sections
See Section 8 for exposure controls and personal protection and Section 13 for disposal considerations.
SECTION 7: Handling and storage

Precautions for Safe Handling: Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Do not breathe gas, mist, spray, vapors. Wash hands and other exposed areas with mild soap and water before eating, drinking or smoking and when leaving work. Do not spray on open flame or other ignition source.
Hygiene Measures: Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety procedures.
Other Precautions: Keep out of reach of children. Follow label instructions. Vapors may collect in low lying areas.
