3. COMPOSITION / INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS
Product Name & Other Names: Citronellidene Acetone or Baccartol.
CAS Number: 68916-62-1
EINECS Number: 202-938-8
4. FIRST-AID MEASURES
Always seek medical attention after first aid measures are provided.
Eye contact: Rinse immediately with plenty of water for 10 minutes at least. Contact a
physician if symptoms persist.
Skin contact: Wash thoroughly with soap and water; flush with plenty of water. Take off
spoilt clothes. Contact physician if symptoms persist.
Ingestion: Wash the mouth with water; seek medical advice immediately.
Inhalation: Remove from exposure site to fresh air and keep at rest. Obtain medical advice.
5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing media recommended: CO2, foam, dry chemicals.
Non-recommended: Do not use direct water jet on burning material.
Extinguishing procedures: In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus.
Closed containers may build up pressure at elevated temperatures. If possible, containers should be
cooled with a water spray. Vapors are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Forms explosive
mixtures with air on intense heating. Development of hazardous combustion gases or vapors possible
in the event of fire.
Products of combustion: Carbon oxides and toxic fumes. If possible, containers should be
cooled with a water spray.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment, and emergency procedures: Ventilate area of leak
or spill. Avoid breathing dust/fumes/gas/mist/vapors/spray. Use individual protective equipment
(waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.). Restrict unprotected
personnel from the area. Prevent any contact with hot surfaces. Do not approach facing the wind. Do
not touch the spilled material.
Environmental precautions: Do not let the product enter drains, soil, or water sources.
Methods and materials used for containment Cleanup procedures and Storage: Contain spilled
material. Cover with an inert, non-combustible absorbent material, (e.g. sand, earth, diatomaceous
earth, vermiculite). Vacuum or sweep-up and remove to an approved disposal container. Avoid open
flames or other sources of ignition.
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. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep
container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use individual protective equipment
(waterproof boots, suitable protective clothing, safety glasses, etc.). Prevent any contact with hot
surfaces.
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. Store protected from heat, sparks and ignition sources and
incompatible materials. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid inhalation of dust/mist/vapor. Do
not store with incompatible materials like strong oxidizing agents and strong acids, alkalis. Heat
and light sensitive. Keep away from ignition sources and naked flame.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROL
Exposure Limits: This product does not contain any hazardous materials with occupational
exposure limits established by the region-specific regulatory bodies.
Respiratory Protection: Avoid to breath directly on the product. Apply local ventilations
when appropriate.
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 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. Dust deposits on floors and
other surfaces may pick up moisture and cause the surfaces to become slippery and present safety
hazards. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
