Composition / Information on Ingredients
| Component | CAS No. | Formula | Concentration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Amyl Acetate | 123-92-2 | C7H14O2 | 99.5000-100.5000 (w/w) |
Concentrations are nominal; lot-specific values appear on the Certificate of Analysis. Components not contributing to classification are omitted.
First-Aid Measures
- Eyes
- Rinse with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Seek medical attention immediately.
- Skin
- Immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing. Wash with soap. Get medical attention immediately.
- Inhalation
- Move person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Get medical attention immediately.
- Ingestion
- Do Not Induce Vomiting! Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If conscious, wash out mouth with water. Get medical attention immediately.
Fire-Fighting Measures
- Suitable Extinguishing Media
- Alcohol-resistant foam, CO2, dry chemical powder. Water spray may be used to cool fire-exposed containers.
- Unsuitable Extinguishing Media
- Do not use a solid water stream — may scatter and spread fire.
- Protective Equipment
- Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.
- Hazardous Combustion Products
- May include carbon oxides and other toxic fumes. See Section 10.
Accidental Release Measures
- Personal Precautions
- Use PPE as described in Section 8. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.
- Environmental Precautions
- Prevent leakage or spillage from entering drains, sewers, or waterways.
- Containment & Cleanup
- Absorb with inert material. Collect in appropriate waste container. Dispose per applicable regulations.
Handling and Storage
- Safe Handling
- Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep container closed when not in use.
- Safe Storage
- Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Keep away from incompatible materials (see Section 10). Keep containers tightly closed. Ground and bond containers when transferring material.
Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Occupational Exposure Limits
No established occupational exposure limits.
- Engineering Controls
- Use adequate ventilation. Provide eyewash stations and quick-drench showers accessible to areas of use.
- Eye/Face Protection
- Wear chemical safety goggles or face shield.
- Skin Protection
- Wear chemical-resistant gloves and protective clothing.
