Hazard Overview

Health hazards: The vapor or mist of this product has a stimulating effect on the eyes, mucous membranes, and upper respiratory tract, and can cause chemical pneumonia. Irritating to the skin.

Environmental hazards: Harmful to the environment

Explosive hazard: This product is flammable and irritating

Emergency measures

Skin contact: Remove contaminated clothing and thoroughly rinse the skin with soap and water

Eye contact: Lift the eyelids and rinse with flowing water or saline solution. Seek medical attention

Inhalation: Quickly leave the scene and move to a place with fresh air. Keep the respiratory tract unobstructed. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. If breathing stops, immediately perform artificial respiration. Seek medical attention

Ingestion: Drink plenty of warm water and induce vomiting. Seek medical attention

Fire protection measures

Hazardous characteristics: Flammable, its vapor can form explosive mixtures with air, and there is a risk of combustion and explosion when exposed to open flames, high heat, or oxidants. Reacts violently when in contact with oxidants. Its vapor is heavier than air and can spread to a considerable distance at lower levels. It will ignite and reignite when exposed to a source of fire

Harmful combustion products: carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide

Fire extinguishing method: Move the container from the fire scene to an open area as much as possible. Spray water to keep the fire container cool until the fire is extinguished. If the container in the fire has changed color or produced sound from the safety relief device, it must be evacuated immediately. Extinguishing agent: insoluble foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide, sand

Emergency response to leakage

Quickly evacuate personnel from the contaminated area to a safe zone, isolate them, and strictly restrict their entry and exit. Cut off the fire source. It is recommended that emergency personnel wear self-contained positive pressure respirators and anti-static work clothes. Cut off the leakage source as much as possible. Prevent the flow into restricted spaces such as sewers and drainage ditches. Minor leakage: Absorb with sand, vermiculite, or other inert materials. Massive leakage: Construct embankments or dig pits to contain it. Cover with foam to reduce steam disaster. Transfer to a tanker or dedicated collector using an explosion-proof pump, and recycle or transport to a waste disposal site for disposal

Handling and Storage

Precautions for operation: Closed operation, comprehensive ventilation. Operators must undergo specialized training and strictly adhere to operating procedures. It is recommended that operators wear filter type gas masks (half face masks), chemical safety goggles, anti-static work clothes, and rubber oil resistant gloves. Keep away from sources of fire and heat, and smoking is strictly prohibited in the workplace. Use explosion-proof ventilation systems and equipment. Prevent steam leakage into the workplace air. Avoid contact with oxidants. During filling, the flow rate should be controlled and there should be a grounding device to prevent static electricity accumulation. Handle with care during transportation to prevent damage to packaging and containers. Equip with corresponding types and quantities of fire-fighting equipment and emergency response equipment for leaks. Empty containers may contain residual harmful substances

Storage precautions: Store in a cool and ventilated warehouse. Stay away from sources of fire and heat. The storage temperature should not exceed 30 ℃. Keep the container sealed. It should be stored separately from oxidants and avoid mixing storage. Adopt explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities. Prohibit the use of mechanical equipment and tools that are prone to generating sparks. The storage area should be equipped with emergency response equipment for leaks and suitable containment materials

Contact control and individual protection

Engineering control: The production process is sealed and fully ventilated

Respiratory protection: Wear a filtered gas mask (half face mask) when there is a possibility of exposure to its vapors

Eye protection: Wear chemical safety goggles Body protection: Wear anti-static work clothes

Hand protection: Wear rubber oil resistant gloves. Other protection: Smoking is strictly prohibited on the work site. Work done, shower and change clothes

Transportation information

Packaging method: Small opening steel drum; Ordinary wooden box outside the ampoule bottle; Screw mouth glass bottle, iron cap pressed mouth glass bottle, plastic bottle or metal barrel (can), ordinary wooden box outside

Transportation precautions: During transportation, the transport vehicle should be equipped with corresponding types and quantities of fire-fighting equipment and emergency response equipment for leaks. It is best to transport in the morning and evening during summer. The tank truck used for transportation should have a grounding chain, and a perforated partition can be installed inside the tank to reduce static electricity generated by vibration. It is strictly prohibited to mix and transport with oxidants, edible chemicals, etc. During transportation, it should be protected from direct sunlight, rain, and high temperatures. When stopping midway, one should stay away from sources of fire, heat, and high temperature areas. The exhaust pipe of the vehicle carrying the item must be equipped with a flame retardant device, and the use of mechanical equipment and tools that are prone to generating sparks for loading and unloading is prohibited. When transporting by road, follow the prescribed route and do not stay in residential or densely populated areas. It is prohibited to slip during railway transportation. It is strictly prohibited to use wooden boats or cement boats for bulk transportation
