| SECTION 3: Hazards Identification | |
|---|---|
| Emergency Overview: | The volatile flammable liquid may hydrolyze in moisture to volatile dimethyl amine which is extremely corrosive to tissue of the mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract, eyes and skin. |
| Primary Routes of Exposure: | Ingestion, skin, inhalation, eyes |
| Eye Contact: | Causes irritation of the eyes. |
| Skin Contact: | Causes irritation of the skin. |
| Inhalation: | Dimethyl amine hydrolysis product is extremely corrosive to tissue of the mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract, eyes and skin. |
| Ingestion: | Ingestion may lead to burning sensation, dizziness, abdominal cramps, vomiting, bloody diarrhea, weakness, and convulsions. |
| Acute Health Effects: | Irritating to skin, eyes and respiratory tract. |
| Chronic Health Effects: | The product is a mutagen in animal studies. |
| NTP: | Yes |
| IARC: | Yes |
| OSHA: | No |
| SECTION 4: First Aid Measures | |
|---|---|
| Eye Exposure: | Immediately flush the eyes with copious amounts of water for at least 10-15 minutes. A victim may need assistance in keeping their eye lids open. Get immediate medical attention. |
| Skin Exposure: | Wash the affected area with water. Remove contaminated clothes if necessary. Seek medical assistance if irritation persists. |
| Inhalation: | Remove the victim to fresh air. Closely monitor the victim for signs of respiratory problems, such as difficulty in breathing, coughing, wheezing, or pain. In such cases seek immediate medical assistance. |
| Ingestion: | Seek medical attention immediately. Keep the victim calm. Give the victim water (only if conscious). Induce vomiting only if directed by medical personnel. |
| SECTION 5: Fire Fighting Measures | |
|---|---|
| Flash Point: | 98°F |
| Autoignition Temperature: | no data |
| Explosion Limits: | no data |
| Extinguishing Medium: | carbon dioxide, or dry powder. |
| Special Fire Fighting Procedures: | Fire fighters should be equipped with a NIOSH approved positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. |
| Hazardous Combustion and Decomposion Products: | May emit toxic organic fumes, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and phosphorous pentoxide. |
| Unusual Fire or Explosion Hazards: | Flammable material. Formation of explosive air/ vapor mixtures is possible. |
| SECTION 6: Accidental Release Measures | |
|---|---|
| Spill and Leak Procedures: | Eliminate all ignition sources. Spillage in areas not adequately ventilated will require evacuation of area. Emergency response teams will require self contained breathing apparatus. Small spills may be adsorbed into diatomaceous earth, sand, or other suitable adsorbents, and swept up. |
| SECTION 7: Handling and Storage | |
|---|---|
| Handling and Storage: | Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat and direct sunlight. Material must be handled and stored under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen or argon. |
| SECTION 8: Exposure Controls and Personal Protection | |
|---|---|
| Eye Protection: | Always wear approved safety glasses when handling a chemical substance in the laboratory. |
| Skin Protection: | When handling this material rubber gloves and an apron should be worn. |
| Ventilation: | Material has a pungent odor. Always handle material in an efficient fume hood. |
| Respirator: | In the absence of adequate ventilation a respirator should be worn. The use of a respiratory requires a Respirator Protection Program to be in compliance with 29 CFR 1910.134. |
| Additional Protection: | No additional protection required. |
