Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
VAPOR: Irritating to eyes, nose and throat. If inhaled, will cause nausea, headache or dizziness. LIQUID: Irritating to skin and eyes. Harmful if swallowed. (USCG, 1999)
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Immediate first aid: 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.

SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Reacts violently with strong oxidants. This generates fire and explosion hazard. Attacks some forms of resins.
Chemical stability
no data available
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Suitable extinguishing media: Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.ISO-AMYL ACETATE is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides. This compound can react violently with oxidizing materials, nitrates, strong alkalis and strong acids. (NTP, 1992)
Conditions to avoid
no data available
Incompatible materials

Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: Biodegradation studies with isoamyl acetate were not available(SRC, 2015). Structurally similar compounds such as butyl acetate and isopropyl acetate have achieved 50.7 and 40.0%, respectively, of their theoretical BODs after 10 days in mineralized water and settled sanitary sewage at 20 deg C(1). Butyl acetate present at 100 mg/L, reached 86% of its theoretical BOD in 2 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum in the Japanese MITI test(2). Isobutyl acetate, methyl amyl acetate, and other alkyl acetates have achieved between 69-81% of their theoretical BODs after 20 days in fresh water tests with non-acclimated sludge(3). These data suggest that biodegradation of isoamyl acetate may be an important environmental fate process(SRC).
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 14 was calculated in fish for isoamyl acetate(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.25(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 isoamyl acetate is estimated as 130(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.25(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that isoamyl is expected to have high 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.
