Product Name & Other Names: Macrogol Cetostearyl Ether.
CAS No.: 68439-49-6
EINECS EC-No.: 500-212-84. First Aid Measures
Always seek medical attention after first aid measures are provided.
Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Ingestion: Give large amounts of water to drink. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention.
Skin Contact: Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention. Wash clothing before reuse.
Eye Contact: Check for and remove any contact lenses. Immediately flush eyes, with running water for at least 15 minutes, keeping eyelids open. Get medical attention.5. Fire Fighting Measures
Auto ignition temperature: High heat or direct flame is necessary to cause ignition.
Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical: Dust can form an explosive mixture with air. Do not allow run-off from firefighting to enter drains or water courses.
Fire Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide. Avoid solid stream of water as it can scatter the fire. Water spray may be used to keep fire exposed containers cool. Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide and fumes will be formed on combustion.
Special Information: In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus with full face piece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode.6. Accidental Release Measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment, and emergency procedures: Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.).
Environmental precautions: Do not let the product enter drains, soil, or water sources.
Methods and materials used for containment cleanup procedures and Storage:
Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition. Stop leaking, without risk. Pick up and dispose of hazardous waste. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and dispose as per law.7. Handling and Storage
Precautions for safe handling: Apply according to good manufacturing and industrial hygiene practices. Ensure proper ventilation. Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not drink, eat, or smoke while handling. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Minimize dust generation. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use individual protective equipment (waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.).
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store in cool, dry, and ventilated area away from heat sources and protected from sunlight in tightly closed original container. Keep air contact to a minimum. Do not leave the material container open. Store protected from heat, sparks and ignition sources and incompatible materials. Avoid inhalation of dust/mist/vapor. Do not store with incompatible materials like strong oxidizing agents.8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Airborne Exposure Limits: Not established. Keep below 5 mg/m3.
Ventilation System: A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures low.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved): Use only under a chemical fume hood. For conditions of use where exposure to the substance is apparent and engineering controls are not feasible, consult an industrial hygienist.
Skin Protection: Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron, or coveralls, as appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection: Use chemical safety goggles and/or a full-face shield where splashing is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.
Other Control Measures: Maintain good housekeeping in work area. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.9. Physical and Chemical Properties
