General Guidance: Move away from exposure source and bring to fresh air in all cases.
Eye Contact: Remove contact lenses if present, flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, seek medical attention for persistent irritation.
Skin Contact: Take off contaminated clothing, flush skin with water and mild soap, consult healthcare provider if rash or discomfort develops.
Inhalation: Remove person to fresh air, keep comfortable, seek medical attention if respiratory symptoms appear.
Ingestion: Rinse mouth with water, do not induce vomiting, seek immediate medical attention if feeling unwell.
Important Symptoms: Redness, swelling, itching, burning sensation, respiratory discomfort, nausea if ingested
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder, foam, or water spray for small fires. For larger fires, standard firefighting measures with water spray or foam.
Hazards from Fire: Emits toxic fumes under fire, including nitrogen oxides, hydrogen bromide, carbon monoxide.
Protective Equipment: Use self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. Move containers away from fire zone if safe.
Specific Fire-Fighting Procedures: Cool worn containers with water spray, avoid inhalation of vapors or particulates, keep runoff water out of drains and water sources
Personal Precautions: Use chemical splash goggles, gloves, long-sleeved clothing; prevent contact with skin and eyes
Environmental Precautions: Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so, do not allow material to enter drains or watercourses
Cleanup Procedures: Ventilate spill area. Use inert absorbent materials such as sand or vermiculite, sweep up and place in suitable containers for disposal. Clean spill area thoroughly with water and detergent.
Advice for Emergency Responders: Wear chemical-resistant boots and protective apron. Dispose of collected material following regulatory requirements.
Safe Handling: Handle in well-ventilated areas, avoid inhaling dust or vapor, do not eat, drink, or smoke while using product, wear recommended personal protective equipment
Safe Storage: Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from heat, moisture, and incompatible materials like strong bases and oxidizing agents.
Incompatible Materials: Strong acids, oxidizing agents, reducing agents
Other Precautions: Keep away from open flames or sources of ignition, label containers clearly, do not store near food or feedstuffs
Exposure Limits: No established OSHA or ACGIH exposure limits for 1-Vinyl-3-Dodecylimidazolium Bromide
Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust ventilation, fume hood, or other engineering controls to keep airborne concentrations below recommended limits
Personal Protective Equipment: Chemical splash proof goggles, chemical resistant gloves (nitrile or neoprene), lab coat or long sleeves, closed-toe shoes
