SECTION 4: First aid measures
Description of necessary first-aid measures
Fresh air, rest.
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.
Rinse mouth. Give a slurry of activated charcoal in water to drink. Refer for medical attention .
Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
SYMPTOMS: Symptoms of exposure to this compound include irritation of the eyes, skin, mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract. Compounds of this class cause peripheral neuropathies, paresthesias, weakness in lower limbs and bluish, sweaty cold hands with erythema and peeling of the palms. ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: The vapor or mist of this compound is irritating to the skin, eyes, mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract. In aqueous solution, this compound is readily absorbed through the skin. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides. (NTP, 1992)
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 respirations if necessary. 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 . 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. Activated charcoal is not effective . Do not attempt to neutralize because of exothermic reaction. Cover skin burns with dry, sterile dressings after decontamination . Organic acids and related compounds
SECTION 5: Firefighting measures

SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
The substance may polymerize due to heating and under the influence of acids. Decomposes on burning. This produces toxic fumes including nitrogen oxides.
Chemical stability
May undergo spontaneous combustion in storage.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
AMONG 4 FIBER DRUMS OF THIS CHEMICAL /N-HYDROXYMETHYLACRYLAMIDE/, 2 OF WHICH HAD NEVER BEEN OPENED, EXCESSIVE HEAT, SMOKE, CRACKLING & SMALL FLAME WERE NOTED. VERY SMALL AMOUNTS OF CONTAMINANT ARE BELIEVED TO HAVE CATALYZED THIS POLYMERIZATION REACTION, BUT STORAGE IN EXCESSIVELY HEATED AREAS CAN ALSO START THE REACTION.N-METHYLOLACRYLAMIDE may be sensitive to prolonged exposure to light. Polymerization and generation of heat and flames may occur on exposure to to heat or contaminants. Incompatible with strong oxidizers. (NTP, 1992)
Conditions to avoid
no data available
Incompatible materials
Excessive heat, smoke, flames, and cracking noise were emitted from stored fibre drums of the monomer, some unopened. Polymerization may have been initiated by minor contaminants (perhaps as vapors), and/or by excessively warm storage conditions.
Hazardous decomposition products
When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of /nitrogen oxides/.
