Product Name & Other Names: Acetone or Propanone
CAS Number: 67-64-1
EINECS EC Number: 200-662-2
4. FIRST-AID MEASURES
Always seek medical advice after the first aid treatment.
Eye contact: Rinse immediately with plenty of water for 10 minutes at least. Contact a physician if symptoms persist.
Skin contact: Wash thoroughly with soap and water; flush with plenty of water. Take off spoilt clothes. Contact physician if symptoms persist.
Ingestion: Wash the mouth with water; seek medical advice immediately.
Inhalation: Remove from exposure site to fresh air and keep at rest. Obtain medical advice.
5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash point: -20C
Extinguishing media recommended: CO2, foam, dry chemicals, Water spray.
Non recommended: Do not use direct water jet on burning material.
Extinguishing procedures: Closed containers may build up pressure at elevated temperatures. If possible, containers should be cooled with a water spray. For large fires, apply water from as far as possible. Keep containers and surroundings cool with water spray. Beware of vapors accumulating to form explosive concentrations. Vapors can accumulate in low areas.
Special Information In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full face piece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode. At high temperatures under fire conditions, it may produce toxic or irritating fumes.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.). Do not approach facing the wind.
Environmental precautions: Do not let the product enter drains, soil, or water sources.
Methods and materials used for containment cleanup procedures and Storage: Contain spilled material. Cover with an inert, non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g., sand, earth, diatomaceous earth, vermiculite). Vacuum or sweep up and remove to an approved disposal container. Avoid open flames or other sources of ignition.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling: Apply according to good manufacturing and industrial hygiene practices. Ensure proper ventilation. Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not drink, eat or smoke while handling. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Minimize dust generation. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.).
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store in cool, dry and ventilated area away from heat sources and protected from sunlight in tightly closed original container. Keep air contact to a minimum. Do not leave the material container open. Store protected from heat, sparks and ignition sources and incompatible materials. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of dust/mist/vapor. Do not store with incompatible materials like bases, oxidizing agents, reducing agents. Keep away from ignition sources and naked flame. - No smoking. Take measures to prevent the build-up of electrostatic charge. To avoid ignition of vapors by static electricity discharge, all metal parts of the equipment must be grounded.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROL
Exposure limit values:
ACGIH TWA (ppm): 250 ppm
ACGIH STEL (ppm): 500 ppm.
Ventilation System: A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures as low as possible.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved): For conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator may be worn.
Skin Protection: Wear protective gloves and clean body-covering clothing.
Eye Protection: Use chemical safety goggles and/or full-face shield where dusting or splashing of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.
Other Control Measures: Maintain good housekeeping in work area. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
