General information
Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Call a POISON
CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell.
Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Wash with plenty of soap and water. If skin
irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention.
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if
present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.
Call a physician or poison control center immediately. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs,
keep head low so that stomach content doesn't get into the lungs. Aspiration may cause
pulmonary edema and pneumonitis.
Irritation of nose and throat. Aspiration may cause pulmonary edema and pneumonitis. Severe eye
irritation. Symptoms may include stinging, tearing, redness, swelling, and blurred vision. May
cause respiratory irritation. Vapors have a narcotic effect and may cause headache, fatigue,
dizziness and nausea. Skin irritation. May cause redness and pain.
Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically. Thermal burns: Flush with water
immediately. While flushing, remove clothes which do not adhere to affected area. Call an
ambulance. Continue flushing during transport to hospital. In case of shortness of breath, give
oxygen. Keep victim warm. Keep victim under observation. Symptoms may be delayed.
Take off all contaminated clothing immediately. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the
material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves. Wash contaminated clothing
before reuse.

equipment/instructions
Specific methods
General fire hazards
Alcohol resistant foam. Water fog. Dry chemical powder. Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel considerable distance to a source
of ignition and flash back. During fire, gases hazardous to health may be formed.
Self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing must be worn in case of fire.
In case of fire and/or explosion do not breathe fumes. Move containers from fire area if you can do
so without risk.
Use standard firefighting procedures and consider the hazards of other involved materials.
Highly flammable liquid and vapor. This product contains tetrahydrofuran that may form explosive
organic peroxide when exposed to air or light or with age.

emergency procedures
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up
Environmental precautions
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Keep out of
low areas. Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area).
Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing during clean-up. Avoid breathing mist or
vapor. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective
clothing. Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Local authorities should be advised if
significant spillages cannot be contained. For personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS.
Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Take
precautionary measures against static discharge. Use only non-sparking tools. Keep combustibles
(wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. This product is miscible in water.
Large Spills: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Use water spray to reduce vapors or
divert vapor cloud drift. Dike the spilled material, where this is possible. Cover with plastic sheet to
prevent spreading. Use a non-combustible material like vermiculite, sand or earth to soak up the
product and place into a container for later disposal. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer,
basements or confined areas. Following product recovery, flush area with water.
Small Spills: Absorb with earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers
for later disposal. Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to
remove residual contamination.
Never return spills to original containers for re-use. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.
Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground.
7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Conditions for safe storage,
including any incompatibilities
Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Do not handle, store or open near an open flame,
sources of heat or sources of ignition. Protect material from direct sunlight. Explosion-proof
general and local exhaust ventilation. Take precautionary measures against static discharges. All
equipment used when handling the product must be grounded. Use non-sparking tools and
explosion-proof equipment. Avoid breathing mist or vapor. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and
clothing. Avoid prolonged exposure. Do not taste or swallow. When using, do not eat, drink or
smoke. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash hands thoroughly after handling.
Observe good industrial hygiene practices.
Store locked up. Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. Prevent electrostatic charge
build-up by using common bonding and grounding techniques. Store in a cool, dry place out of
direct sunlight. Store in original tightly closed container. Store in a well-ventilated place. Store
away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS).

Respiratory protection
Thermal hazards
General hygiene
considerations
Explosion-proof general and local exhaust ventilation. Good general ventilation (typically 10 air
changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If
applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to
maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been
established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Eye wash facilities and emergency
shower must be available when handling this product.
Face shield is recommended. Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves.
Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing.
If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations below recommended exposure
limits (where applicable) or to an acceptable level (in countries where exposure limits have not
been established), an approved respirator must be worn.
Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.
When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such
as washing after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash
work clothing and protective equipment to remove contaminants.
