Fire Extinguishing Agents: Water fog, alcohol foam, carbon dioxide, dry chemical. (USCG, 1999)|Use water spray, dry powder, alcohol-resistant foam, carbon dioxide.

Chemical goggles, rubber boots and gloves, and self contained breathing apparatus. (USCG, 1999)

Explosive limits , vol% in air: 1.1-7

Ventilation. Collect leaking liquid in sealable containers. Wash away spilled liquid with plenty of water.

Separated from strong oxidants, strong bases and strong acids.

No indication can be given about the rate at which a harmful concentration of this substance in the air is reached on evaporation at 20 °C.

The substance is mildly irritating to the eyes. If swallowed the substance may cause vomiting and could result in aspiration pneumonitis.

NO open flames.

Use ventilation.

Protective gloves.

Wear safety goggles.

May cause slight transient (temporary) eye irritation. Corneal injury is unlikely. Prolonged or repeated exposure is not likely to cause significant skin irritation. Repeated prolonged exposure may cause sleepiness. Single prolonged exposure is not likely to result in absorption of harmful amount through skin. Low oral toxicity. Ingestion of large amount may cause injury. Exposure may have anesthetic or narcotic effects. (USCG, 1999)

INHALATION: Call for medical aid. Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. INGESTION: If conscious, have victim drink 2 glasses of water and immediately induce vomiting. EYES: Irrigate with water for at least 15 minutes. SKIN: Wash off in flowing water or shower. (USCG, 1999)

Fresh air, rest.

Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.

Rinse with plenty of water (remove contact lenses if easily possible).
