Di-acetone Alcohol

Di-Acetone Alcohol Composition and Information on IngredientsDiacetone Alcohol Purity: 99 % min.Synonyms: 4-Hydroxy-2-keto-4-methylpentane,2-Methyl-2-Hydroxy-2-pentanone,Tyranton,2-Hydroxy-2-methyl-4- pentanone,4-Hydroxy-4-methylpentan-2-one .CAS Number: 123-42-2Hazards IdentificationInhalation : Irritating; headache, izzyness, narcosisSkin: Defatting, drying, may irritateEyes: IrritatingIngestion: Stomach ache, nausea, diarrhoea, drowsiness, narcosisFire: Flammable chemical,Explosion: Sensitive to heat.First aid measuresInhalationRemove from contaminated area promptly. If breathing stops,administer artificial respiration and seek medical aid promptly.Ingestion Give plenty of water to dilute product . Do not induce vomiting Keep victim quiet. If vomiting occurs, keep victims head below the hips to prevent inhalation of vomited material. Seek medical help promptly.Skin ContactWash with soap and plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and do not reuse until thoroughly cleaned or laundered.Eye ContactWash eyes with plenty of water, holding eyelids open. Seek medical assistance promptly if there is any irritation.Fire fighting measuresFireSpecial Exposure hazard: carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, acid smokeDangerous Decomposition ProductThermal decomposition is highly dependent on conditions. A complex mixture of airborne solids, liquids and gases, including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and other organic compounds will be evolved when this material undergoes combustion or thermal or oxidative degradation.Fire Extinguishing MediaUse water fog, alcohol foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide (CO2) to extinguish flames. Equipment for firefighters: In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and selfcontained breathing apparatus.Accidental release measuresPersonnel PrecautionsAvoid contact with skin and eyes. Use personnel protective equipment.Eyes: Flush continuously with water for minimum 15-20 Min.Skin: Flush with water for minimum 15-20 Min. If not burned, wash with soap and apply water to cleanse. Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Give oxygen if needed and continue until medical assistance arrives. Environmental precautionsLeak Precaution :control spillage and prevent environmental contamination; if fire potential exists, blanket with foam as a precautionMethod for cleaning up spills or leaks Handling Spill ventilate contaminated area: recover free liquid with explosion-proof pumps; absorb residue on an inert sorbent (dry sand, earth) and store in closed containers for disposalWaste Disposal: do not flush to sewer; may be incinerated in approved facilityHandling and storageHandlingSurfaces that are sufficiently hot may ignite liquid material. Vapors are heavier than air. Vapors may travel across the ground and reach remote ignition sources causing a flashback fire danger. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Extinguish pilot lights, cigarettes and turn off other sources of ignition prior to use and until all vapors have dissipated. Use explosion- proof ventilation to prevent vapor accumulation while in use. Air-dry contaminated clothing in a well-ventilated area before laundering. Static electricity may accumulate and create a fire hazard. Bond and ground handling equipment and transfer containers to prevent sparking.
