SECTION 4: First aid measures
Description of necessary first-aid measures
Fresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer for medical attention.
ON FROSTBITE: rinse with plenty of water, do NOT remove clothes. 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. Do NOT induce vomiting. Give one or two glasses of water to drink. Refer for medical attention .
Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
Inhalation causes irritation of respiratory tract and lungs; pulmonary edema may result. Liquid causes severe irritation and burns of eyes and skin, and can permanently injure eyes after 15 seconds' contact. Ingestion causes severe burns of mouth and stomach; can be fatal. (USCG, 1999)
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Immediate first aid: Remove patient from contact with material. Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand-valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR as necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. /Inorganic Bases/Alkaline Corrosives and Related Compounds/

Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: Ethylamine is expected to be degraded by biological sewage treatment with suitable acclimation(1). Activated sludge acclimated to aniline removed 34% of theoretical BOD in 130 hours; the initial ethylamine concentration was 500 mg/L(2). Activated and non-activated sludge cultures were observed to rapidly degrade ethylamine(3,4).
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 3.2 was calculated in fish for ethylamine(SRC), using a log Kow of -0.13(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
Mobility in soil
The Koc of ethylamine is estimated as 7(SRC), using a log Kow of -0.13(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that ethylamine is expected to have very high mobility in soil. Adsorption can be affected by the acidity of the soil; at a higher pH, cations have higher adsorption(SRC). The pKa of ethylamine is 10.87(4), indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely in the cation form in the environment and cations generally adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(5).
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.
