Fresh air, rest. 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 with water. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a doctor or Poison Control Center immediately.
Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
Inhalation of moderate concentrations causes dizziness, drowsiness, and unconsciousness. Contact with eyes or skin may cause irritation; the liquid may cause frostbite. (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 necessary. Administer oxygen by nonrebreather mask at 10 to 15 L/min. Monitor for pulmonary edema and treat if necessary ... Anticipate seizures and treat as 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. Administer activated charcoal ... Treat frostbite with rapid rewarming techniques ... Aliphatic hydrocarbons and related compounds
SECTION 5: Firefighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
To fight fire, stop flow of gas.
Specific hazards arising from the chemical
Behavior in Fire: Containers may explode in fire. Vapor is heavier than air and may travel a long distance to a source of ignition and flash back. (USCG, 1999)
Special protective actions for fire-fighters
Shut off supply; if not possible and no risk to surroundings, let the fire burn itself out. In other cases extinguish with water spray, powder, carbon dioxide. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water. Combat fire from a sheltered position.

SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Reacts violently with halogens, oxidants and strong acids. This generates fire and explosion hazard.
Chemical stability
Volatile liquid or easily liquefied gas.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
A very dangerous fire and explosion hazard when exposed to heat or flame.The gas is heavier than air and may travel along the ground; distant ignition possible. The gas is heavier than air and may accumulate in lowered spaces causing a deficiency of oxygen. As a result of flow, agitation, etc., electrostatic charges can be generated.ISOBUTYLENE is incompatible with oxidizers. It polymerizes easily. It reacts easily with numerous materials, such as alkyl halides, halogens, concentrated sulfuric acid, hypochlorous acid, aluminum chloride, carbon monoxide and hydrogen with a cobalt catalyst. Polymerization is catalyzed by aluminum chloride and boron trifluoride. (NTP, 1992)
Conditions to avoid
no data available
Incompatible materials
Can react vigorously with oxidizing materials.
Hazardous decomposition products
When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and fumes.

Persistence and degradability
Isobutylene was degraded to 1,2-epoxybutane by pure cultures of methanotrophic bacteria(1).
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 35 was calculated for isobutylene(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.34(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate(SRC).
Mobility in soil
The Koc of isobutylene is estimated as 450(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.34(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that isobutylene is expected to have moderate mobility in soil(SRC).
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.
