4.3 Antidote: not applicable.
4.4 Information for physicians: not applicable.
5.1 Flammability properties: Highly flammable. Produces vapors heavier than air, forming explosive mixtures at room temperature. In case of fire it can produce dangerous toxic gases. Closed containers may rupture explosively if heated.
5.2 Extinction media: CO2, foam and/or powder.
5.3 Inappropriate extinction media: Water. Water may not be effective to extinguish the fire. Liquid spills may result from spraying with water.
5.4 Firefighting instructions: Special protective equipment should be used. In case of staying in the risk area, self-contained breathing apparatus and appropriate protective clothing should be used.
5.5 Firefighters protection: Properties and possible hazards of the material:
• The containers may break and release toxic vapors.
• Hazardous polymerization may occur due to high temperatures.
• Closed containers may break violently in case of fire.
5.6 Protective equipment and protection for firefighters: Self-contained breathing apparatus and encapsulated suit should be used. Evacuate the affected area and attack the fire from a safe distance.
6.1 Techniques, procedures, materials, and protective equipment in case of:
– Small spills: Absorb spills with sand, soil, or other appropriate absorbent material. Do not use sawdust or other combustible materials. Transfer to a container for its disposal.
Ensure appropriate ventilation.
– Large spills: Avoid the product to get into drains. Absorb spills with sand, soil, or other appropriate absorbent material. Do not use sawdust or other combustible materials.
Transfer to a container for its disposal.
Uncontrolled discharge in waterways must be notified to the competent authorities.
Ensure appropriate ventilation.
6.2 Environmental precautions: Avoid filtration on land and in water. In case of large spills or if the product contaminates lakes, rivers, or seas, inform the competent authorities, according to local legislation.
6.3 Other considerations: Use only in well ventilated places.
Avoid accumulation of electrostatic charges. Prevent waste from entering surface or subway watercourses.
7.1 Handling: Follow fire-fighting measures. The product must be away from ignition sources.
7.2 Storage: Keep the product in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place (air atmosphere). Keep away from any flame or spark source. Do not smoke. Maintain away from heat and direct sunlight. Store away from oxidizing agents, acids, bases, and polymerizing
initiators. Do not store for prolonged periods of time which exceed the product’s shelf life. Check the product (control translucency). Storage temperature must not exceed 30 °C (86 °F). The monomer vapors are not inhibited and may form polymers on the fans or flame quenchers, and they may cause blockage of fans.
8.1 Conditions to control exposure: Wear appropriate respirator, safety goggles, and gloves.
8.2 Engineering conditions: Appropriate ventilation, exhaust fan, emergency showers and eye-rinsing equipment in areas where the product is used.
8.3 Personal protective equipment:
– Respiratory equipment: Wear appropriate protective equipment. If exposure to values exceeding the occupational exposure limit is foreseeable, wear appropriate facemask with type A filter. In case of high quantities of vapor, use a self-contained breathing
apparatus.
– Eye protection: Safety goggles and full-face shield.
– Gloves: Wear appropriate gloves. The most appropriate gloves depend on a series of factors such as: physical strength of the glove, the degree of sensitivity required, permeability level of the material. Gloves with the most permeability are coated in
PVA/Polyethylene or in PVA linings. Butyl and nitrile rubber gloves also provide certain level of protection, but they must be replaced immediately if exposure has occurred.
The gloves need to be changed regularly and when excessive exposure has occurred.
