delayed for several hours after exposure. Breathing of high

vapour concentrations may cause central nervous system
(CNS) depression resulting in dizziness, light-headedness,
headache, nausea and loss of coordination. Continued
inhalation may result in unconsciousness and death. Damage
to blood-forming organs may be evidenced by: a) fatigue and
anaemia (RBC), b) decreased resistance to infection, and/or
excessive bruising and bleeding (platelet effect). Peripheral
nerve damage may be evidenced by impairment of motor
function (incoordination, unsteady walk, or muscle weakness in
the extremities, and/or loss of sensation in the arms and legs).
Auditory system effects may include temporary hearing loss
and/or ringing in the ears.
Extremely flammable. Electrostatic charges may be generated
during handling. Electrostatic discharge may cause fire. Liquid

Protective measures

Clean Up Methods

Additional Advice

Vapour can travel for considerable distances both above and

below the ground surface. Underground services (drains,
pipelines, cable ducts) can provide preferential flow paths. Do
not breathe fumes, vapour. Take measures to minimise the
effects on groundwater. Contain residual material at affected
sites to prevent material from entering drains (sewers), ditches,
and waterways. Shut off leaks, if possible without personal
risks. Remove all possible sources of ignition in the
surrounding area. Use appropriate containment (of product
and fire fighting
water) to avoid environmental contamination. Prevent from
spreading or entering drains, ditches or rivers by using sand,
earth, or other appropriate barriers. Attempt to disperse the
vapour or to direct its flow to a safe location for example by
using fog sprays. Take precautionary measures against static
discharge. Ensure electrical continuity by bonding and
grounding (earthing) all equipment.
For large liquid spills (> 1 drum), transfer by mechanical means
such as vacuum truck to a salvage tank for recovery or safe
disposal. Do not flush away residues with water. Retain as
contaminated waste. Allow residues to evaporate or soak up
with an appropriate absorbent material and dispose of safely.
Remove contaminated soil and dispose of safely.
For small liquid spills (< 1 drum), transfer by mechanical means
to a labelled, sealable container for product recovery or safe
disposal. Allow residues to evaporate or soak up with an
appropriate absorbent material and dispose of safely. Remove
contaminated soil and dispose of safely.
Notify authorities if any exposure to the general public or the
environment occurs or is likely to occur. Local authorities
should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.
Maritime spillages should be dealt with using a Shipboard Oil
Pollution Emergency Plan (SOPEP), as required by MARPOL
Annex 1 Regulation 26. To the extent that this product,
including its chemical components (e.g. methyl tertiary butyl
ether) may impact surface or groundwater, appropriate
assessment and remediation (if necessary) should be
implemented.

(e.g. airborne concentrations are high, risk of oxygen
deficiency, confined space) use appropriate positive pressure
breathing apparatus. All respiratory protection equipment and
use must be in accordance with local regulations.
Personal hygiene is a key element of effective hand care.
Gloves must only be worn on clean hands. After using gloves,
hands should be washed and dried thoroughly. Application of a
non-perfumed moisturizer is recommended. Suitability and
durability of a glove is dependent on usage, e.g. frequency and
duration of contact, chemical resistance of glove material,
glove thickness, dexterity. Always seek advice from glove
suppliers. Contaminated gloves should be replaced.
Select gloves tested to a relevant standard (e.g. Europe
EN374, US F739). When prolonged or frequent repeated
contact occurs, Nitrile gloves may be suitable. (Breakthrough
time of > 240 minutes.) For incidental contact/splash protection
Neoprene, PVC gloves may be suitable.
Chemical splash goggles (chemical monogoggles).
Chemical resistant gloves/gauntlets, boots, and apron (where
risk of splashing).
Monitoring of the concentration of substances in the breathing
zone of workers or in the general workplace may be required to
confirm compliance with an OEL and adequacy of exposure
controls. For some substances biological monitoring may also
be appropriate.
Local guidelines on emission limits for volatile substances must
be observed for the discharge of exhaust air containing vapour.

expressed as the nominal amount of product required to
prepare aqueous test extract).
Floats on water. Evaporates within a day from water or soil
surfaces. Large volumes may penetrate soil and could
contaminate groundwater. Contains volatile constituents. Toxic
to aquatic organisms; may cause long-term adverse effects in
the aquatic environment. Ether oxygenates are significantly
more water soluble and less biodegradable than benzene,
toluene, ethyl benzene and xylenes (BTEX). Consequently
ether oxygenates have the potential to migrate relatively longer
distances than BTEX in groundwater.
Methyl tertiary butyl ether degradation may result in the
formation of tert-butyl alcohol (TBA).
Major constituents are expected to be inherently
biodegradable, but the product contains components that may
persist in the environment. The volatile constituents will oxidize
rapidly by photochemical reactions in air.
While biodegradation of methyl tertiary butyl ether has been
documented, it is generally less biodegradable than many
petroleum hydrocarbons and has a potential to migrate
relatively longer distances in groundwater.
Contains constituents with the potential to bioaccumulate.
Films formed on water may affect oxygen transfer and damage
organisms.
