Chemical Identity: Imidazoline, 1-(carboxymethyl)-, 2-alkyl (C11 unsatd.) derivatives Concentration: Approximately 95% by weight Impurities: Water (<5%), minor fatty acid residues Additives: None unless specified by supplier
Inhalation: Move to fresh air, keep at rest, consult physician if symptoms persist Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing, wash thoroughly with soap and water, seek medical attention for irritation Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes, remove contact lenses if present, get medical advice for continued discomfort Ingestion: Rinse mouth, do not induce vomiting, seek medical attention Symptoms and Effects: Redness, itching, burning of skin or eyes, respiratory discomfort
Suitable Extinguishing Media: Foam, dry chemical, CO2, water spray Unsuitable Media: High-pressure water jet Fire Hazards: Slight risk of evolving toxic fumes, including nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide Special Protective Equipment: Self-contained breathing apparatus, full protective gear Advice for Firefighters: Prevent run-off from entering drains or watercourses, cool fire-exposed containers
Personal Precautions: Wear gloves, goggles, and protective clothing; ventilate area Environmental Precautions: Prevent from entering soil, drains, or natural watercourses Spill Cleanup Methods: Contain and absorb with inert material (sand, earth), place in chemical waste container Disposal: Dispose of residues according to local and national regulations Reference to Other Sections: Wear appropriate PPE, see Section 8
Handling: Avoid inhalation, contact with skin and eyes, use adequate ventilation Storage: Store in tightly closed original container, in dry, cool, well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials (strong oxidizers, acids) Hygiene Measures: Wash hands after use, remove contaminated clothing Handling Temperatures: Keep between 5°C and 40°C to maintain stability
Occupational Exposure Limits: Not established for specific ingredient Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation, eyewash stations, safety showers Personal Protective Equipment: — Respiratory: NIOSH-approved respirators for mist or vapor exposure — Hands: Chemical-resistant gloves (nitrile, neoprene) — Eyes: Chemical splash goggles — Skin: Protective clothing to minimize contact Work Hygeine Practices: Do not eat, drink, or smoke near product use
