4. First-aid measures 

Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with water; remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 

minutes, then continue flushing eyes for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical attention without delay, 

preferably from an ophthalmologist. Eye wash fountain should be located in immediate work area. 

Skin Contact: Immediately flush skin with water while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get 

medical attention if symptoms occur. Wash clothing before reuse. Destroy contaminated leather items 

such as shoes, belts, and watchbands. Safety shower should be located in immediate work area. 

Inhalation: Move person to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration; if by mouth to mouth 

use rescuer protection (pocket mask, etc). If breathing is difficult, oxygen should be administered by 

qualified personnel. Call a physician or transport to a medical facility. 

Ingestion: If swallowed, seek medical attention. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by 

medical personnel. 

Notes to Physician: Maintain adequate ventilation and oxygenation of the patient. May cause 

asthma-like (reactive airways) symptoms. Bronchodilators, expectorants, antitussives and 

corticosteroids may be of help. Respiratory symptoms, including pulmonary edema, may be delayed. 

Persons receiving significant exposure should be observed 24-48 hours for signs of respiratory 

distress. Exposure to amine vapors may cause minor transient edema of the corneal epithelium 

(glaucopsia) with blurred vision, blue haze and halos around bright objects. Effects disappear in a few 

hours and temporarily reduce ability to drive vehicles. No specific antidote. Treatment of exposure 

should be directed at the control of symptoms and the clinical condition of the patient. 

Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: Excessive exposure may aggravate preexisting 

asthma and other respiratory disorders (e.g. emphysema, bronchitis, reactive airways dysfunction 

syndrome). 

Emergency Personnel Protection: First Aid responders should pay attention to self-protection and 

use the recommended protective clothing (chemical resistant gloves, splash protection). If potential for 

exposure exists refer to Section 8 for specific personal protective equipment.

5. Fire Fighting Measures 

Extinguishing Media: Water fog or fine spray. Dry chemical fire extinguishers. Carbon dioxide fire 

extinguishers. Foam. Do not use direct water stream. May spread fire. Alcohol resistant foams (ATC 

type) are preferred. General purpose synthetic foams (including AFFF) or protein foams may function, 

but will be less effective. 

Fire Fighting Procedures: Keep people away. Isolate fire and deny unnecessary entry. Use water 

spray to cool fire exposed containers and fire affected zone until fire is out and danger of reignition has 

passed. Fight fire from protected location or safe distance. Consider the use of unmanned hose 

holders or monitor nozzles. Immediately withdraw all personnel from the area in case of rising sound 

from venting safety device or discoloration of the container. Do not use direct water stream. May 

spread fire. Move container from fire area if this is possible without hazard. Burning liquids may be 

moved by flushing with water to protect personnel and minimize property damage. Contain fire water 

run-off if possible. Fire water run-off, if not contained, may cause environmental damage. Review the 

"Accidental Release Measures" and the "Ecological Information" sections of this (M)SDS. 

Special Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing 

apparatus (SCBA) and protective fire fighting clothing (includes fire fighting helmet, coat, trousers, 

boots, and gloves). Avoid contact with this material during fire fighting operations. If contact is likely, 

change to full chemical resistant fire fighting clothing with self-contained breathing apparatus. If this is 

not available, wear full chemical resistant clothing with self-contained breathing apparatus and fight fire 

from a remote location. For protective equipment in post-fire or non-fire clean-up situations, refer to 

the relevant sections. 

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Container may rupture from gas generation in a fire situation. 

Violent steam generation or eruption may occur upon application of direct water stream to hot liquids. 

Hazardous Combustion Products: During a fire, smoke may contain the original material in addition 

to combustion products of varying composition which may be toxic and/or irritating. Combustion 

products may include and are not limited to: Nitrogen oxides. Carbon monoxide. Carbon dioxide. 

6. Accidental Release Measures 

Steps to be Taken if Material is Released or Spilled: Contain spilled material if possible. Absorb 

with materials such as: Dirt. Sand. Sawdust. Collect in suitable and properly labeled containers. 

Wash the spill site with water. See Section 13, Disposal Considerations, for additional information. 

Personal Precautions: Isolate area. Refer to Section 7, Handling, for additional precautionary 

measures. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering the area. Spilled material 

may cause a slipping hazard. Use appropriate safety equipment. For additional information, refer to 

Section 8, Exposure Controls and Personal Protection. 

Environmental Precautions: Prevent from entering into soil, ditches, sewers, waterways and/or 

groundwater. See Section 12, Ecological Information. Spills or discharge to natural waterways is likely 

to kill aquatic organisms. 

7. Handling and Storage

A "skin" notation following the inhalation exposure guideline refers to the potential for dermal 

absorption of the material including mucous membranes and the eyes either by contact with vapors or 

by direct skin contact. 

It is intended to alert the reader that inhalation may not be the only route of exposure and that 

measures to minimize dermal exposures should be considered. 

Personal Protection

Eye/Face Protection: Use chemical goggles. Eye wash fountain should be located in immediate work 

area. If exposure causes eye discomfort, use a full-face respirator. 

Skin Protection: Use protective clothing chemically resistant to this material. Selection of specific 

items such as face shield, boots, apron, or full body suit will depend on the task. Safety shower should 

be located in immediate work area. Remove contaminated clothing immediately, wash skin area with 

soap and water, and launder clothing before reuse or dispose of properly. Items which cannot be 

decontaminated, such as shoes, belts and watchbands, should be removed and disposed of properly. 

Hand protection: Use gloves chemically resistant to this material. Examples of preferred 

glove barrier materials include: Butyl rubber. Natural rubber ("latex"). Neoprene. 

Nitrile/butadiene rubber ("nitrile" or "NBR"). Polyethylene. Ethyl vinyl alcohol laminate 

("EVAL"). Polyvinyl alcohol ("PVA"). Polyvinyl chloride ("PVC" or "vinyl"). NOTICE: The 

selection of a specific glove for a particular application and duration of use in a workplace 

should also take into account all relevant workplace factors such as, but not limited to: Other 

chemicals which may be handled, physical requirements (cut/puncture protection, dexterity, 

thermal protection), potential body reactions to glove materials, as well as the 

instructions/specifications provided by the glove supplier. 

Respiratory Protection: Respiratory protection should be worn when there is a potential to exceed 

the exposure limit requirements or guidelines. If there are no applicable exposure limit requirements 

or guidelines, use an approved respirator. Selection of air-purifying or positive-pressure supplied-air 

will depend on the specific operation and the potential airborne concentration of the material. For 

emergency conditions, use an approved positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus. In 

confined or poorly ventilated areas, use an approved self-contained breathing apparatus or positive 

pressure air line with auxiliary self-contained air supply. The following should be effective types of airpurifying respirators: Organic vapor cartridge with a particulate pre-filter. 

Ingestion: Use good personal hygiene. Do not consume or store food in the work area. Wash hands 

before smoking or eating. 

Engineering Controls

Ventilation: Use engineering controls to maintain airborne level below exposure limit requirements or 

guidelines. If there are no applicable exposure limit requirements or guidelines, use only with 

adequate ventilation. Local exhaust ventilation may be necessary for some operations.
