Chemical Name: Vanillin Propyleneglycol Acetal
Concentration: ≥98%
Impurities: Minor aromatic byproducts, trace residual solvents
Additives: None significant for safety classification
Relevant Exposure Limits: No established occupational exposure limit in most jurisdictions
Inhalation: Move person to fresh air; seek medical attention if cough, irritation, or breathing difficulty develops.
Skin Contact: Rinse exposed skin with mild soap and water; remove contaminated clothing; if irritation persists, consult a doctor.
Eye Contact: Rinse immediately with water for at least fifteen minutes, ensuring eyelids are held open; remove contact lenses if present and easy to do; seek medical advice if irritation or redness remains.
Ingestion: Rinse mouth thoroughly; never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person; seek immediate medical attention if large quantities are ingested.
Most Important Symptoms: Skin redness, eye stinging, throat or respiratory discomfort.
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, dry chemical, foam, or CO2.
Unsuitable Media: Strong water jets may scatter spilled material.
Hazardous Combustion Products: May emit carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and irritating organic vapors.
Advice for Firefighters: Wear full protective gear and self-contained breathing apparatus; evacuate area if fire grows beyond initial stage; isolate from incompatible substances; cool exposed containers with water spray.
Personal Precautions: Remove all ignition sources; ventilate area; prevent entry to confined spaces.
Protective Equipment: Use chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection, and suitable respiratory protection for dusty or poorly ventilated conditions.
Cleanup Methods: Absorb spill with inert material like vermiculite, sand, or diatomaceous earth; scoop up carefully and transfer to a suitable waste container; wash area with detergent solution and avoid generating dust.
Environmental Precautions: Avoid release into drains, sewers, or waterways; contain and report significant spills.
Safe Handling: Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames; avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing; use only with adequate ventilation; maintain good workplace hygiene.
Safe Storage: Store in tightly closed containers; keep in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place; protect from direct sunlight and incompatible substances; segregate from oxidizing agents and acids; keep out of reach of children.
Engineering Controls: Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering interventions to keep airborne levels below recommended exposure limits.
Personal Protective Equipment: Wear chemical splash goggles; use gloves (nitrile or neoprene recommended); long-sleeved clothing; approved respirator if ventilation is inadequate.
Hygiene Measures: Wash thoroughly after handling; do not eat, drink, or smoke while using this product; regularly clean personal protective equipment.

Carcinogenicity: No evidence for carcinogenic potential in available data.
Mutagenicity: No data indicating mutagenic effects.
Reproductive Toxicity: No known effects on fertility or reproduction.
Other Data: Persons with pre-existing skin or respiratory disorders may be more susceptible to adverse effects.
Ecotoxicity: Low acute toxicity to aquatic organisms but may affect water systems at high concentrations.
Persistence and Degradability: Degrades slowly; not highly persistent under natural conditions.
Bioaccumulative Potential: Unlikely significant bioaccumulation due to moderate water solubility and molecular size.
Mobility in Soil: May leach into groundwater if released in quantity.
Other Adverse Effects: No data suggesting long-term ecological harm at properly controlled levels.
Product Disposal: Dispose of as non-hazardous organic chemical waste; consult local, national, or international regulations.
