Section 4: First Aid Measures
4.1 Description of First Aid Measures
GENERAL: In all cases of doubt, check vital functions.
If the victim is unconscious, maintain adequate airway and respiration.
For respiratory arrest, perform artificial respiration/give oxygen.
For cardiac arrest, perform resuscitation.
If the victim is conscious with labored breathing, move him/her to a half-seated position.
If the victim is in shock, lay him/her on his/her back with legs slightly raised.
If the victim is vomiting, prevent asphyxiation/aspiration.
Prevent cooling by covering, not warming; keep watching the victim closely.
INHALATION: Move to fresh air and keep patient warm and at rest. If breathing is irregular or
stopped, give artificial respiration. If unconscious, place in the recovery position and obtain
immediate medical attention. Give nothing by mouth.
EYES: Remove contact lenses if wearing them, and/or irrigate eyes copiously with clean water
for at least 15 minutes, holding the eyelids apart and seek medical attention.
4
SKIN: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water or use a
recognized skin cleanser.
INGESTION: If swallowed, wash out mouth with water, and obtain immediate medical
attention. Keep at rest. Do NOT induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, keep head below hips to
prevent aspiration into lungs.
*NOTE TO PHYSICIANS: If aspirated into the lungs, material may cause chemical
pneumonitis. Please treat appropriately.
Section 5: Fire Fighting Procedures
5.1 Extinguisher Media
Flash Point: TBAc 39.9°F (closed cup)
Methyl Acetate 39°F (closed cup)
Dimethyl Carbonate 63°F (closed cup)
Finished Product 63°F (closed cup approximation)
Flammable Limits in Air % by Volume:
● TBAc lower limit: 1.26%; upper limit: 6.88%
● Methyl Acetate: lower limit 2.55%, upper limit 14.6%
● Dimethyl Carbonate: lower limit 4.22%, upper limit 12.87%
● Extinguisher Media: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, alcohol-resistant foam
○ Unsuitable Media: Solid water jet is ineffective.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Use a NIOSH/MSHA-approved gas mask for firefighting
personnel. Water may be used to cool containers. If water is used, fog nozzles are preferred.
Unusual Fire and Explosive Hazards: Flammable liquid and vapor. Keep containers tightly
closed. Vapors may migrate to ignition source and cause flash fire. Isolate from heat, sparks,
electrical equipment, appliances, pilot lights, flames, and other sources of ignition.
5.2 Special Hazards Arising from the Substance/Mixture
Fire Hazard - Direct fire hazard. Highly flammable. Gas/vapor flammable with air
within explosion limits.
INDIRECT FIRE HAZARD: May be ignited with sparks. Gas/vapor spreads at
floor level.
IGNITION HAZARD: Highly flammable liquid and vapor.
Explosion Hazard -
DIRECT EXPLOSION HAZARD: Gas/vapor explosive with air in explosion limits.
INDIRECT EXPLOSION HAZARD: May be ignited with sparks.
5
Reactivity - Upon combustion, CO and CO2 are formed. Reacts violently with [strong] oxidizers.
Increased risk of fire.
Section 6: Accidental Release Measures
Wear appropriate personal protection. Wear gloves, head/neck protection, and a gas mask with a
type-A filter. Ventilate area of leak or spill. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel far.
Remove all sources of ignition. Contain and recover liquid when possible. Use non-sparking
tools and equipment . In case of spillage, absorb with inert material (such as vermiculite, dry
sand, or earth) and place in a waste chemical container and dispose of in accordance with
regulations of EPA and other local, state, and federal authorities.
Do not use combustible materials such as sawdust. Do not flush to sewer.
If a leak or spill has not ignited, use water spray to disperse the vapors, to protect personnel
attempting to stop leak, and to flush spills away from exposures. US regulations require reporting
spills and releases to water and soil more than reportable quantities.
Section 7: Handling & Storage
HANDLING: Use in a well-ventilated area away from all ignition sources. Avoid sparking
conditions. All equipment used when handling this product must be grounded.
STORAGE: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
Empty containers may retain hazardous properties and can be dangerous.
Store and handle in accordance with all current regulations and standards. Subject to storage
regulations: U.S. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.106.
Waste Disposal Methods (Consult Federal, State, and Local Regulations): Place in closed
containers. Dispose of product in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations.
Section 8: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Engineering Controls: Both local exhaust and good general room ventilation must be provided,
not only to control exposure, but also to prevent the formation of flammable mixtures.
Personal Protection:
Inhalation: A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA’s 29 CFR 1910.134 or ANSI
Z88.2 requirements must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant respirator use.
