First Aid Measures

Eye Contact: Rinse gently with plenty of water for several minutes, remove contact lenses if present, seek attention if irritation persists
Skin Contact: Wash area thoroughly with mild soap and water, remove contaminated clothing
Inhalation: Move person to fresh air, consult physician if respiratory symptoms occur
Ingestion: Rinse mouth, offer water to drink, do not induce vomiting, seek medical advice if discomfort develops
Most Important Symptoms: Mild reversible irritation (skin, eyes)
Advice for Doctor: Treat symptomatically, show this MSDS

Fire-Fighting Measures

Suitable Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, alcohol-resistant foam, carbon dioxide, water spray
Unsuitable Media: High-pressure water stream, as it may spread the product
Specific Hazards: May form combustible mixtures at high temperatures
Advice for Firefighters: Full protective clothing, self-contained breathing apparatus recommended
Hazardous Combustion Products: Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, minor amounts of acrolein possible at high temperatures

Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions: Use personal protective equipment, avoid skin and eye contact, beware of slippery spills
Environmental Precautions: Keep out of drains, sewers, and natural water courses
Methods for Cleanup: Absorb spill with inert material (sand, earth), collect in closed containers for disposal, clean area with detergent and water
Spill Reporting: Notify authorities if product enters waterways or sewer systems

Handling and Storage

Handling: Provide sufficient ventilation at the workplace, wear suitable protective equipment, wash hands thoroughly after handling, avoid contact with eyes and skin
Storage: Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated location away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition, keep container closed when not in use, avoid storage above 40°C (104°F)
Incompatible Materials: Strong oxidizing agents, strong acids
Container Materials: Use containers made of steel, polyethylene, or glass

Exposure Controls / Personal Protection

Exposure Limits: No established occupational exposure limits (OSHA, ACGIH)
Engineering Controls: Ensure local exhaust ventilation at points where vapors or mists may be generated
Personal Protective Equipment: Safety goggles, chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile or butyl rubber), protective clothing, in case of insufficient ventilation wear suitable respiratory equipment
Hygiene Measures: Do not eat, drink, or smoke in work areas, wash hands before breaks and after handling product

Toxicological Information

Acute Toxicity: Low oral and dermal toxicity based on available animal data (LD50 oral rat > 5000 mg/kg)
Skin Corrosion/Irritation: May cause mild reversible irritation; frequent or prolonged contact can lead to dryness
Serious Eye Damage/Irritation: Moderate to slight irritation, reversible within hours
Respiratory Sensitization: Not expected under normal conditions

Carcinogenicity: Contains no carcinogens as classified by IARC, NTP, OSHA
Reproductive Toxicity: Not expected to pose reproductive hazard
Repeated Dose Toxicity: No significant systemic effects identified in sub-chronic studies on related ingredients

Ecological Information

Ecotoxicity (Aquatic): Based on structural analogs, not acutely toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations (LC50, fish, 96hr > 100 mg/L)
Persistence and Degradability: Product is biodegradable, expected to degrade under aerobic conditions within weeks
Bioaccumulative Potential: Moderate potential due to fat solubility, actual risk considered low due to ready biodegradability
Mobility in Soil: Immobile, binds to soil particles, no significant leaching potential
Other Adverse Effects: May form surface film and reduce oxygen transfer if large spill occurs in water

Disposal Considerations

Waste Treatment Methods: Dispose in accordance with local, regional, and national regulations, incineration recommended for bulk quantities, small residual quantities may be landfilled at authorized facilities
Incineration Guidelines: Use approved incineration facilities capable of handling organic waste
Container Disposal: Empty containers must be triple-rinsed before recycling or disposal, do not reuse containers
Prevent Release: Avoid washing product into groundwater, surface water, or sewer systems
