5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES

4. FIRST AID MEASURES

INGESTION

Protective equipment and precautions for firefighters

As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full

protective gear.

Rinse mouth immediately and drink plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting without medical

advice. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Consult a physician if

necessary.

Flammable Properties Combustible Liquid. Heating can release vapors which can be

ignited.

Skin contact Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water while removing all contaminated

clothes and shoes.

Suitable Extinguishing Media Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local

circumstances and the surrounding environment, Dry powder,

Carbon dioxide (CO2), Foam, Water spray

Notes to physician Treat symptomatically.

General advice

Hazardous Combustion Products Carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), oxides of nitrogen

(NOx), dense black smoke.

Eye contact Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes.

Inhalation

Explosion Data 

Move to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If symptoms persist, call a

physician.

Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing

Do not breathe vapor or mist

If symptoms persist, call a physician

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

Specific hazards arising from the chemical

The product causes irritation of eyes, skin and mucous membranes. Combustible material. As the product contains combustible

organic components, fire will produce dense black smoke containing hazardous products of combustion (see section 10).

- 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Other information

Storage Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place

Keep away from heat, sparks, flame and other sources of ignition (i.e., pilot lights, electric

motors and static electricity)

Keep away from direct sunlight

Incompatible with strong acids and oxidizing agents

Vapour can travel along the ground for considerable distances

Methods for containment Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth,

diatomaceus earth, vermiculite) and place in container for disposal according to local /

national regulations (see section 13).

Personal precautions

Environmental Precautions Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Try to prevent the material from entering

drains or water courses. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot

be contained.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Methods for Clean-up Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal binder,

sawdust).

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

Ensure adequate ventilation. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not breathe

vapor or mist. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Use personal protective

equipment.

Handling

Hazardous Reactions

Product Information

Subchronic Toxicity (28 days). No information available

Incomplete toxicological data are available for this product

No information available

Irritation Incomplete toxicological data are available for this product. Methanol is more toxic to

humans and primates than to most experimental animals, due to differences in how it is

metabolized. Non-primates do not appear to experience the acidosis or vision effects

observed in humans and primates. inhalation of high concentrations can cause

unconsciousness and death.

Incompatible Materials Strong oxidizing agents. Strong acids.

Corrosivity Causes burns.
