| Fire-fighting measures | Hazardous characteristics: flammable, its vapor and air can form an explosive mixture, and can cause combustion and explosion when exposed to open flame and high heat. It can react strongly with oxidizing agents. The flow rate is too fast, and it is easy to generate and accumulate static electricity. Its vapor is heavier than air, and it can spread far away at a lower place, and will ignite back when it encounters a fire source. Fire extinguishing method: spray water to cool the container, if possible move the container from the fire site to an open area. Containers in the fire must be evacuated immediately if they have changed color or produced noise from the safety relief device. Fire extinguishing agents: foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide, sand. Water extinguishing the fire is ineffective. | ||
| Emergency treatment | Skin contact: Remove contaminated clothing immediately and rinse the skin thoroughly with soapy water and clean water. Seek medical attention. Eye contact: lift the eyelid and rinse with running water or saline. Seek medical attention. Inhalation: Quickly leave the scene to fresh air. Keep your airways open. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If breathing stops, perform artificial respiration immediately. Seek medical attention. Eating: Drink enough warm water to induce vomiting. Seek medical attention. | ||
| Packaging, storage, transportation | Packed in 180KG iron drums. Fire sources must be strictly prohibited when storing and using. It is recommended to operate inside an explosion-proof fume hood, use explosion-proof tools, and wear anti-static overalls and rubber oil-resistant gloves. Storage requirements: Store in a cool and ventilated warehouse. Stay away from fire and heat sources. The storage temperature should not exceed 30°C. Keep the container tightly sealed. It should be stored separately from the oxidizing agent and should not be mixed. Explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities are adopted. It is forbidden to use mechanical equipment and tools that are prone to sparks. The storage area should be equipped with leak emergency treatment equipment and appropriate containment materials. Transported according to the requirements of dangerous goods | ||
