4. First Aid Measures

Inhalation: Move person to fresh air, seek medical advice if symptoms persist or worsen, provide oxygen if breathing is difficult
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing, wash exposed area with plenty of water and mild soap, seek medical attention for persistent irritation
Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes, remove contact lenses if present and easy to do, continue rinsing, consult a physician if irritation continues
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water, do not induce vomiting, seek immediate medical attention, never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person
Important Symptoms/Effects: Irritation, coughing, headache, dizziness, redness
Immediate Medical Attention Needed: Eye exposure, inhalation of large quantities, signs of severe illness

5. Fire-Fighting Measures

Suitable Extinguishing Media: Carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder, alcohol-resistant foam
Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Direct water stream, as it may spread the fire
Specific Hazards: Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air, fire may produce irritating, corrosive, and toxic gases/fumes
Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus, wear full protective clothing
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Move containers from fire area if safe, cool with water fog, prevent runoff from fire control from entering water sources
Flammability: Yes, moderate

6. Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions: Evacuate unnecessary personnel, provide adequate ventilation, use personal protective equipment including gloves, goggles, and respiratory protection
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry into drains, waterways, or soil
Spill Containment: Absorb spill with inert material (sand, earth, vermiculite), use non-sparking tools, collect in suitable containers for disposal
Cleaning Methods: Wash away residues with water after material pick-up is complete, ventilate area
Disposal: Dispose in accordance with local, regional, and national regulations

7. Handling and Storage

Safe Handling: Work in well-ventilated environment, minimize generation of vapors, avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing, use appropriate PPE, keep away from sources of ignition
Storage Conditions: Store in tightly-closed original container, in cool, dry, well-ventilated place, away from incompatible substances like acids, bases, and oxidizers
Incompatibility: Strong acids, strong bases, oxidizing agents
Transfer Precautions: Ground and bond all containers and handling equipment, handle under inert atmosphere if possible
Special Requirements: Maintain adequate ventilation and fire protection systems

8. Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

Occupational Exposure Limits: No specific limits established for this chemical, observe general exposure guidelines for methacrylates and silanes
