Product Name/Synonyms: Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide or MEKP or Ethyl methyl ketone peroxide or 2-Butanone Peroxide.
CAS No.: 1338-23-4
EINECS EC No.: 215-661-2
Percentage: 30 to 70% with non-hazardous diluents.4. First Aid Measures
Always seek medical attention after first aid measures are provided.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Ingestion: Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention.
Skin Contact: Wipe off excess material from skin then immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse. Get medical attention.
Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.
Note to physicians: Product is a corrosive material. Use of gastric lavage or emesis is contra-indicated. Possible perforation of stomach or esophagus should be investigated. Do not give chemical antidotes. Asphyxia from glottal oedema may occur. Marked decrease in blood pressure may occur with frothy sputum, and high pulse pressure.5. Fire Fighting Measures
Flammability of the Product: Flammable.
Auto-Ignition Temperature: SADT: 70C.
Flash Points: 82C
Products of Combustion: Carbon dioxide, Carbon monoxide, fumes.
Fire: Inflammable.
Explosion: Explosive in presence of heat.
Fire Extinguishing Media: Use Water spray, Carbon dioxide (CO2), Foam, Dry powder and Sand for extinction. Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment. Water spray or fog is preferred; if water not available use dry chemical, CO2 or regular foam. Flammable liquid and vapor. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Vapors can spread along the ground and collect in low or confined areas. Never direct a water jet in the container in order to prevent any splashing of the product which could cause spreading of the fire. Cool containing vessels with water jet in order to prevent pressure build-up, auto-ignition or explosion.
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. At high temperatures it may produce toxic or irritating fumes. These substances will accelerate burning when involved in a fire. Some may burn rapidly with flare burning effect. Some may decompose explosively when heated or involved in a fire. May ignite combustibles (wood paper, oil, clothing, etc.). Thermal decomposition can lead to release of irritating and toxic gases and vapors.8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Airborne Exposure Limits: Not Established. Keep it below 0.2 ppm. Provide adequate ventilation.
Ventilation System: A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion of it into the general work area.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved): For conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator may be worn. For emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator.
Skin Protection: Wear protective gloves and clean body-covering clothing.
Eye Protection: Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where dusting or splashing of solutions 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. Wash hands after handling.9. Physical and Chemical Properties
