First-aid measures

Description of first aid measures

If on skin

Immediately remove splashed or contaminated clothing. Shower and rinse your entire body with

abundant water. Wash contaminated parts of the body with soap and water.

Contact a doctor.

If contact with eyes

Immediately rinse abundantly with water for around fifteen minutes.

Consult an ophthalmologist immediately.

If inhaled

If possible, hold your breath and leave the contaminated area. Use the required personal

protection equipment (see section 8) to remove any injured or suffering person from the area.

Lie the victim down and keep the person warm.

Contact a doctor immediately.

If swallowed

Immediately transfer the person to the hospital

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

METHYL BAPO has severe toxic effects for all types of exposure.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

In every case, evacuate the person to a hospital.

Fire-fighting measures

Extinguishing media

Appropriate means of extinguishing fires

Carbon dioxide, chemical powder, physical foam.

Inappropriate means of extinguishing fires

None known.

Special hazards arising from the subtance or mixture

Hazardous decomposition products

METHYL BAPO can decompose in the presence of heat, producing toxic and irritating vapours

(nitrogen, carbon and phosphorus oxides).

Water used to extinguish fires must be collected to avoid contaminating the environment.

Advice for firefighters

Wear standalone isolating respiratory devices and appropriate protective clothing.

Accidental release measures

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Protection equipment

Wear a full protection mask against organic vapours (type A cartridge).

Wear appropriate gloves (latex gloves are recommended) and acid-proof clothing (apron and boots if METHYL BAPO is in viscous liquid form).

Protection and prevention measures

Mark out the contaminated area. Evacuate people

Ensure adequate ventilation if possible.

Environmental precautions

Avoid contaminating the environment directly via surface water or via the soil or indirectly via the water evacuation system.

Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

If METHYL BAPO is in viscous liquid form, cover with absorbent material (soil, sand etc…) to limit spreading.

Collect waste using a mechanical device, in an appropriate container, and clearly label for destruction according to applicable regulations.

Destroy the contaminated product by incineration using an installation complying with regulations.

Reference to other sections

Exposure control parameters as described in section 8 are applicable in case of accidental dispersion.

Waste from cleaning must be treated in accordance with the provisions of section 13.

Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling

Protective and prevention measures

• Safety

Avoid extended heating of METHYL BAPO above 80°C.

• Health

If vapours are likely to be produced, collect these vapours as near to the location of production as possible. If ventilation is inadequate, wear suitable respiratory protection devices.

Avoid all contact with the eyes, skin and clothing (see section 8 on personal protection equipment).

• Environment

Avoid contaminating the environment directly via surface water or via the soil or indirectly via the water evacuation system.

General advice on hygiene in the workplace

Do not eat, drink or smoke when working.

Wash your hands before breaks and before leaving work.

Shower after work.

Keep your personal protection devices and work clothing clean.

Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities

Technical measures and storage conditions

Protect from humidity (for quality control reasons).

Store away from heat in a cool and ventilated room.

Avoid any source of ignition.

Store in the original packaging, closed appropriately.

Recommended storage temperature (for quality control): between 0°C to 8°C.

Packaging materials

Polyethylen, polypropylen

Non adaptive packaging materials

Avoid any other type of packaging

Specific end use(s)

Identified uses : METHYL BAPO is used for industrial purposes as a raw material for

pyrotechnic compounds; all other use is prohibited

Exposure controls / personal protection

Exposure controls

Appropriate engineering controls

METHYL BAPO must be handled using a contained system if possible.

If vapours are produced, a local exhaust system must collect these vapours as near to the

location of production as possible.

Measures of personal protection, such as personal protective equipment

• Eye protection : safety goggles.

• Skin protection : Wear appropriate gloves (latex gloves are recommended) and acid-proof

clothing (apron and boots if METHYL BAPO is in viscous liquid form)..

• Respiratory protection : if ventilation is inadequate, wear a full protection mask against

organic vapours (type A cartridge).

If the product is projected, an eye wash and safety shower must be nearby.

Reducing exposure to protect the environment

Avoid contaminating the environment directly via surface water or via the soil or indirectly via the

water evacuation system.

Waste must be treated in accordance with the provisions of section 13.

Stability and reactivity

Reactivity

METHYL BAPO is likely to react violently with strong oxidisers and acids

Chemical stability

METHYL BAPO is stable in normal temperature and pressure conditions, as predictable for

handling and storage, in accordance with section 7.

Possibility of hazardous reactions

METHYL BAPO can start to decompose from 80°C in case of prolonged heating

Conditions to avoid

Avoid any source of heat likely to lead to the decomposition of the METHYL BAPO.

METHYL BAPO storage and handling temperatures must be controlled (see section 7).

Incompatible materials

Strong oxidisers. Acids .

Hazardous decomposition products

In case of decomposition, toxic and irritating vapours can be produced (nitrogen oxides,

carbon oxides, and phosphorus oxides).

Disposal considerations

Waste treatment methods

Waste / unused product

Accordance with applicable regulations

Store waste in sealed containers.

Label these containers in compliance with the applicable international and community standards

and eliminate as dangerous waste in the conditions described in regulations (treatment by specialist centres).

Avoid mixing with other categories of dangerous waste or with other waste, substances or raw material.

Contaminated packaging

Contaminated packaging must be eliminated in accordance with applicable regulations.
