Description of first aid measures
| General advice: |
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. |
| Inhalation: | Remove person to fresh air. If you feel unwell, get medical attention. |
| Skin Contact | In case of contact, immediately flush with plenty of water. If irritation occurs and persists, get medical attention. |
| 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. Suitable emergency eye wash facility should be immediately available. |
| Ingestion | Rinse mouth. If you feel unwell, get medical attention. |

Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Under fire conditions some components of this product may decompose. The smoke may contain unidentified toxic and/or irritating compounds. Combustion products may include and are not limited to: Carbon dioxide. Carbon monoxide.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: This material will not burn until the water has evaporated. Residue can burn.
Advice for firefighters
Fire Fighting Procedures: Keep people away. Isolate fire and deny unnecessary entry. Contain fire water run-off if possible.
Special protective equipment for firefighters: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suit. If protective equipment is not available or not used, fight fire from a protected location or safe distance.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Use personal protective equipment. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Material can create slippery conditions.
Environmental precautions
CAUTION: Keep spills and cleaning runoff out of municipal sewers and open bodies of water.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Contain spills immediately with inert materials (e.g., sand, earth). Transfer liquids and solid diking material to separate suitable containers for recovery or disposal.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling
Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep container tightly closed. Do not breathe vapors, mist or gas.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Keep from freezing - product stability may be affected. STIR WELL BEFORE USE.
Storage stability
Storage temperature: 1°C - 49°C (34°F - 120°F) Other data: Monomer vapors can be evolved when material is heated during processing operations. See SECTION 8, for types of ventilation required.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROL / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Control parameters
Exposure limits are listed below, if they exist.
| Components | CAS No. | Regulation | Type of listing | Value/Notation |
| Diethylene Glycol Monoethyl Ether | 111-90-0 | US WEELs | TWA | 25 ppm |
Exposure controls
Technical Control: Use local exhaust, or other technology solutions to keep air levels below given or recommended limit values. If limit values are not present, good general ventilation should be sufficient. Local exhaustion mat be required in some operations.
Individual protection measures
| Eye/Face Protection | Use chemical safety goggles. |
| Skin Protection | No precautions other than clean body covering clothing should be needed. |
| Hand Protection |
Chemical protective gloves are not needed when handling this material. Consistent with general hygienic practice for any material, skin contact should be minimized. In case of using gloves, use gloves chemically resistant to this material. Examples of preferred glove barrier materials include: Neoprene. Nitrile/butadiene rubber ("nitrile" or "NBR"). Polyvinyl chloride ("PVC" or "vinyl"). Avoid gloves made of: Polyvinyl alcohol ("PVA"). |
| Respiratory Protection |
Respiratory protection should be worn as there is a risk of exposure above given or recommended Occupational Exposure Limits. If such limit values are not present, respiratory protection will cause effects such as respiratory irritation or discomfort, or when risk assessment indicates that this is required. Under most conditions, no respiratory protection should be required; If discomfort is experienced, use an approved respiratory protective device. |
| Hygiene measures | Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday. |
