Fire-Fighting Measures

Extinguishing Media| In case of fire: Use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, chemical foam, or water spray to extinguish.

Use water spray to cool containers.

---|---
Specific Hazards| Produces irritating and toxic fumes in fires or in contact with hot surfaces. May produce very toxic nickel carbonyl gas in the presence of carbon monoxide in a reducing atmosphere.

The vapors are heavier than air and may accumulate in low- lying areas. Vapors may travel long distances and ignite at an ignition source, which can cause a flashback or an explosion.

Prevent fire-fighting wash from entering waterway or sewer system.

---|---
Combustion Products| Produces carbon oxides (CO,CO2), nickel oxides fumes, and nitrogen oxides (NOx).
Fire-Fighter| Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full fire- fighting turn-out gear.

Accidental Release Measures

Personal Protection| See personal protection recommendations in Section 8.
---|---
Precautions for Response| Do not breathe the mist, spray, and vapors. Remove or keep away all sources of extreme heat or open flames.
Environmental Precautions| Avoid releasing to the environment. Prevent spill from entering drains and waterways.
Containment Methods| Contain with inert absorbent (such as soil, sand, vermiculite).
Cleaning Methods| Collect liquid in a sealable, solvent-resistant container. Sprinkle inert absorbent compound onto spill, then sweep into the container. Wash spill area with soap and water to remove the last traces of residue.
Disposal Methods| Dispose of spill waste according to Section 13

Engineering Controls

Ventilation| Keep airborne concentrations below the occupational exposure limits (OEL).
---|---

Personal Protective Equipment

Eye protection| Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles.

R ECOMMENDATION : Ensure that glasses have side shields for lateral protection.

---|---
Skin Protection| For likely contacts, use of protective butyl rubber or other chemically resistant gloves.
Respiratory Protection| For over-exposures up to 10 x OEL of mist, vapors, and spray, wear respirator such as a half-mask respirator with organic vapor cartridges.

Above 10 x OEL, use a positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator or a self- contained breathing apparatus.

R ECOMMENDATION : Consult your local safety supply store to ensure that your respirator has a NIOSH (U.S.) approved filter cartridges appropriate for the ingredients listed in Section 3.

The respirator should be fitted to the employee by a professional. Ensure vapor cartridges are stored in sealed plastic bags when not being used.

General Hygiene Considerations

Wash hands thoroughly with water and soap after handling.

Ecological Information

Ecological classifications are based on the IMDG/GHS criteria in conjunction with ecotoxicological data from our suppliers, the European Chemical Agency database (http://echa.europa.eu), and other reliable sources.
sufficiently soluble to give rise to an ecological hazard. The classification that follows takes into account to chronic aqueous toxicity of category 3 assignment of the EU. Acetone, heptan-2-one, and 1-methoxy-2-propanol acetate are not classifiable as environmental toxicant (with minimal LC50 of >100 mg/L).

• Acetone has a minimal LC50 96 h of 5 540 mg/L for Oncorhynchus mykiss (rainbow trout) and an EC50 48 h of 13 500 mg/L for Daphnia magna (water flea).
• Heptan-2-one has a minimal LC50 96 h of 126 mg/L for Pimephales promelas (fathead minnow).
• 1-methoxy-2-propanol acetate has a minimal LC50 96 h of ≥100 mg/L Salmo gairdneri and an EC50 48 h of >500 mg/L for Daphnia magna (water flea).

There is insufficient data to classify dimethyl carbonate for aqueous toxicity.
Acute Ecotoxicity
Category 3 Harmful to aquatic life
Chronic Ecotoxicity
