Precautionary statements
| Chemical Identity | 2,2':6',2"-Terpyridine |
|---|---|
| C.A.S. Number | 1148-79-4 |
| Concentration / Grade | 98% min. |
| Impurities | No impurities present at concentrations that alter the classification. |
| Inhalation | Remove to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. If breathing is difficult give oxygen. Obtain medical attention. |
|---|---|
| Skin contact | Remove contaminated clothing. Wash the affected area with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical attention if irritation persists. |
| Eye contact | Rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes holding the eyelids open. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do. Obtain immediate medical attention. |
| Ingestion | Do NOT induce vomiting. Rinse the mouth with water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Obtain immediate medical attention and show this Material Safety Data Sheet. |
| Note to physician | Treat symptomatically. No specific antidote is known. |
| Suitable extinguishing media | Water spray, dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide or alcohol-resistant foam. |
|---|---|
| Unsuitable extinguishing media | High-pressure water jet. |
| Specific hazards | Thermal decomposition may generate irritating and toxic gases. |
| Advice for fire-fighters | Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. Prevent fire-fighting water entering drains or watercourses. |
| Personal precautions | Evacuate unnecessary personnel. Ensure adequate ventilation. Wear the protective equipment described in Section 8. Eliminate ignition sources where the product is flammable. |
|---|---|
| Environmental precautions | Prevent entry into drains, sewers, surface water and groundwater. Notify the authorities if release to the environment occurs. |
| Containment and cleaning | Contain with an inert absorbent (dry sand, earth or vermiculite) and collect into a labelled closed container for disposal. Do not use combustible absorbents where the product is an oxidiser. Ventilate the area and wash the spill site after pick-up. |
| Handling | Use only in well-ventilated areas. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Avoid formation and inhalation of dust, mist or vapour. Do not eat, drink or smoke in the work area. |
|---|---|
| Storage | Store in the original tightly closed container in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight and heat, and away from the incompatible materials listed in Section 10. |
| Packaging | Use only the original packaging or an equivalent material approved for this product. |
| Occupational exposure limits | Refer to the national occupational exposure limits applicable in the country of use. Where no limit is established, keep airborne concentrations as low as reasonably practicable. |
|---|---|
| Engineering controls | Local exhaust ventilation at points of dust, mist or vapour generation. Eyewash stations and safety showers close to the work station. |
| Eye / face protection | Chemical safety goggles to EN 166 / IS 5983. Face shield where splashing is possible. |
| Skin protection | Chemical-resistant gloves to EN 374 (nitrile or butyl rubber). Chemical-resistant apron, suit and boots as required by the task. |
| Respiratory protection | Where ventilation is insufficient use an approved respirator with a P2/P3 particulate filter for dusts or an appropriate vapour cartridge for solvents. |
