Special Advice for Physician: Symptomatic treatment based on clinical findings
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Foam, dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide, water spray (avoid direct water jet to prevent spread)
Specific Hazards: Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air, can give off toxic fumes (e.g., carbon monoxide, acrylic vapors) under fire conditions
Protective Equipment: Full protective gear, self-contained breathing apparatus
Other Precautions: Remove all ignition sources, keep containers cool with water spray, prevent runoff into drains
Personal Precautions: Use appropriate PPE including gloves, goggles, respirators if vapor concentrations are high
Environmental Precautions: Prevent spill from reaching soil, sewers, or waterways; notify authorities according to local regulations
Cleanup Methods: Contain spill with inert absorbent (e.g., sand, diatomaceous earth), collect absorbent material for proper disposal, ventilate the spill area, wash down small residues with plenty of water
Handling: Use in well-ventilated areas, keep away from heat and all sources of ignition, avoid inhalation or direct skin contact, wash hands after handling
Storage Conditions: Store in tightly closed original containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, keep away from sunlight and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizers and bases, maintain inhibitor levels as prescribed to prevent unwanted polymerization
Incompatibilities: Strong acids, bases, oxidizers, and free radical initiators
Special Storage Concerns: Protect from moisture and temperature extremes, regular inspection for container integrity recommended
Exposure Limits: No specific OSHA or ACGIH exposure limits for biological acrylates; general guidance follows similar acrylate monomers (typically TWA 1-5 ppm)
Engineering Controls: Ensure proper exhaust ventilation at processing sites
Respiratory Protection: Use NIOSH-approved respirator if airborne concentrations rise above guidelines or if recommended by a risk assessment
Hand Protection: Wear chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile or neoprene preferred)
Eye Protection: Safety goggles with side shields
Skin Protection: Wear long sleeves and chemically resistant lab coats or aprons
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands, forearms, and face thoroughly after handling; launder contaminated clothing before reuse

Skin Corrosion/Irritation: Expected to cause skin irritation; risk increases with prolonged contact
Serious Eye Damage/Irritation: Eye contact can result in moderate to severe irritation
Respiratory or Skin Sensitization: Some acrylate monomers can trigger allergic skin reactions in sensitive individuals
Carcinogenicity: Not listed as a carcinogen by OSHA, IARC, NTP
Reproductive Toxicity: No evidence from animal studies at typical exposure levels

Persistence and Degradability: Biodegradable under aerobic conditions, degradation rate dependent on structure and local conditions
Mobility in Soil: Moderately mobile in soil, can leach to groundwater under heavy spill conditions
Other Adverse Effects: Spill may cause short-term oxygen depletion due to high oxygen demand during biodegradation
