SECTION 4: First aid measures
Description of necessary first-aid measures
Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention.
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. Refer for medical attention .
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.
Rinse mouth. Give one or two glasses of water to drink. Do NOT induce vomiting. Refer for medical attention .
Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
Inhalation of concentrated vapor causes drowsiness and convulsions. Liquid causes irritation of eyes and may irritate skin on prolonged exposure. Ingestion produces same symptoms as inhalation. (USCG, 1999)
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Basic treatment: Establish a patent airway. Suction if necessary. Watch for signs of respiratory insufficiency and assist ventilations if needed. Administer oxygen by nonrebreather mask at 10 to 15 L/min. Monitor for pulmonary edema and treat if necessary . Monitor for shock and treat if necessary . Anticipate seizures and treat if necessary . For eye contamination, flush eyes immediately with water. Irrigate each eye continuously with normal saline during transport . Do not use emetics. For ingestion, rinse mouth and administer 5 ml/kg up to 200 ml of water for dilution if the patient can swallow, has a strong gag reflex, and does not drool . Cover skin burns with dry sterile dressings after decontamination . Poison A and B
SECTION 5: Firefighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
Use water spray, dry chemical, foam, or carbon dioxide. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Water or foam may cause frothing. Fight fire from protected location or maximum possible distance.
Specific hazards arising from the chemical
Behavior in Fire: Heat can result in a severe polymerization with rapid release of energy. Sealed containers may rupture explosively if hot. (USCG, 1999)
Special protective actions for fire-fighters
Use powder, AFFF, foam, carbon dioxide. Use water spray. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water.

Persistence and degradability
In a 2-week biodegradation screening test (MITI test) using 2-ethylhexyl acrylate (100 mg/l) and an activated sludge inoculum (30 mg/l), 51% of BOD (on an upward trend) was removed(1). Using an OECD screening test, a DOC degradation of >90% was reported for 2-ethylhexyl acrylate and >60% degradation using a Sapromat, classifying the compound as readily biodegradable(2).
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 430 was calculated for 2-ethylhexyl acrylate(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 4.09(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC), provided the compound is not altered biologically or chemically once released into the environment(SRP).
Mobility in soil
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc for 2-ethylhexyl acrylate can be estimated to be 430(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that 2-ethylhexyl acrylate is expected to have moderate mobility in soil.
Other adverse effects
no data available
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
