Hazardous Combustion Products: Releases carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, acetic acid fumes under fire conditions
Protective Equipment: Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective suit
Special Precautions: Prevent runoff from fire control from entering drains or surface waters
Fire/Explosion Hazards: Combustible at elevated temperature, vapors may form explosive mixtures with air if heated well above ambient
Personal Precautions: Ventilate area, evacuate unnecessary personnel
Protective Equipment: Chemical resistant gloves, safety goggles, coveralls, respirator when mist may become airborne
Spill Containment: Stop leak if safe to do so, dike large spills, prevent entry into drains, sewers, watercourses
Clean-Up Methods: Absorb with inert material (sand, diatomite), place in sealable container for proper disposal
Environmental Precautions: Prevent spills from reaching soil and waterways
Handling: Use only in well-ventilated areas, avoid skin and eye contact, avoid inhalation of vapors or mists, keep away from incompatible materials like strong alkalis, oxidizers
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands before eating, drinking or smoking, remove contaminated clothing and laundry thoroughly before reuse
Storage Conditions: Store in tightly-closed containers, in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from heat sources and direct sunlight
Incompatibles: Avoid strong acids, alkalis, and oxidizing agents which cause decomposition or violent reaction
Other Precautions: Keep container upright, avoid handling in confined unventilated spaces
Exposure Limits: No established workplace exposure limits found for this compound, monitor for acetic acid vapor as secondary decomposition hazard
Engineering Controls: Good general ventilation, local exhaust at points of emission
Eye Protection: Chemical splash-proof goggles, face shield for bulk handling
Skin Protection: Impermeable gloves (nitrile or neoprene), chemical-resistant apron
Respiratory Protection: Organic vapor respirator if vapor or aerosol concentration exceeds comfort level
Environmental Exposure Measures: Minimize airborne emissions, avoid release to environment, apply workplace containment where applicable
Appearance: Clear, colorless to pale yellow liquid
Odor: Mild acetic ester odor
pH: Not applicable (non-aqueous)
Melting Point: Below room temperature
Boiling Point: Decomposes above 200°C, no clear boiling point
Flash Point: Estimated 110°C (closed cup)
Evaporation Rate: Slower than diethyl ether
Flammability: Low flammability, but combustible at high temperature
Vapor Pressure: Low at room temperature
Solubility: Moderately soluble in water, freely soluble in most organic solvents
Density: Roughly 1.18 g/cm³ at 20°C
Viscosity: Slightly more viscous than water
Partition Coefficient (n-octanol/water): Estimated moderate, reflecting ester content
Chemical Stability: Stable under recommended storage and handling conditions
Decomposition: Yields acetic acid and formaldehyde under prolonged heating or strong acid/base contact
Conditions to Avoid: Heating above boiling point, exposure to strong bases, acids, powerful oxidizing agents
Incompatible Materials: Alkali metals, strong acids, bases, oxidizers
Hazardous Reactions: May react exothermically with above materials, releases decomposition gases if heated to high temperatures
Polymerization: Not known to undergo hazardous polymerization
Acute Toxicity: Expected low toxicity based on related esters, oral LD50 anticipated >2000 mg/kg (rat)
Skin Corrosion/Irritation: Causes mild to moderate irritation, severity depends on duration and exposure
Eye Damage/Irritation: May cause serious eye irritation on contact
Respiratory Sensitization: Irritation possible if vapor or mist concentrations exceed normal air-dilution rates
Skin Sensitization: Not expected, but avoid repeated prolonged exposure
Carcinogenicity: Not classified as carcinogen by IARC, NTP, OSHA
Mutagenicity/Teratogenicity: No conclusive data available
Chronic Effects: Prolonged or repeated contact may cause dermatitis or respiratory discomfort
Aquatic Toxicity: Not acutely toxic at low levels, but high concentrations may cause harm to aquatic invertebrates
Persistence and Degradability: Expected to undergo biodegradation through ester hydrolysis in environment
Bioaccumulation Potential: Estimated low to moderate, based on partition coefficient
Mobility in Soil: Intermediate mobility, not expected to strongly bind to soil particles
Other Adverse Effects: Large spills can deplete oxygen levels in water, cause pH shifts due to acetic acid formation
