Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and moving the eyelids by occasionally
lifting the upper and lower lids.
Seek medical attention without delay; if pain persists or recurs seek medical attention.
Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled personnel.

Fire Fighting
Fire/Explosion Hazard
Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard.
May be violently or explosively reactive.
Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves in the event of a fire.
Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water course.
Hot organic vapours or mist are capable of sudden spontaneous combustion when mixed with air even at temperatures
below their published autoignition temperatures.
The temperature of ignition decreases with increasing vapour volume and vapour/air contact times and is influenced by
pressure change.
Ignition may occur under elevated-temperature process conditions especially in processes performed under vacuum
subjected to sudden ingress of air or in processes performed at elevated pressure, where sudden escape of vapours or
mists to the atmosphere occurs.
Liquid and vapour are highly flammable.

Exposure controls
Appropriate
engineering controls
Engineering controls are used to remove a hazard or place a barrier between the worker and the hazard. Well-designed
engineering controls can be highly effective in protecting workers and will typically be independent of worker interactions to
provide this high level of protection.
The basic types of engineering controls are:
Process controls which involve changing the way a job activity or process is done to reduce the risk.
Enclosure and/or isolation of emission source which keeps a selected hazard "physically" away from the worker and
ventilation that strategically "adds" and "removes" air in the work environment.

Body protection
Other protection
Thermal hazards
Chemical goggles.
Full face shield may be required for supplementary but never for primary protection of eyes.
Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants. A written policy
document, describing the wearing of lenses or restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task.
See Hand protection below
Wear chemical protective gloves, e.g. PVC.
Wear safety footwear or safety gumboots, e.g. Rubber
NOTE:
The material may produce skin sensitisation in predisposed individuals. Care must be taken, when removing gloves and
other protective equipment, to avoid all possible skin contact.
Contaminated leather items, such as shoes, belts and watch-bands should be removed and destroyed.

Inhaled
Ingestion
Inhalation of vapours or aerosols (mists, fumes), generated by the material during the course of normal handling, may be
damaging to the health of the individual.
Evidence shows, or practical experience predicts, that the material produces irritation of the respiratory system, in a
substantial number of individuals, following inhalation. In contrast to most organs, the lung is able to respond to a chemical
insult by first removing or neutralising the irritant and then repairing the damage. The repair process, which initially evolved to
protect mammalian lungs from foreign matter and antigens, may however, produce further lung damage resulting in the
impairment of gas exchange, the primary function of the lungs.
Accidental ingestion of the material may be damaging to the health of the individual.
Skin contact with the material may damage the health of the individual; systemic effects may result following absorption.
Skin Contact
Eye
Evidence exists, or practical experience predicts, that the material either produces inflammation of the skin in a substantial
number of individuals following direct contact, and/or produces significant inflammation when applied to the healthy intact
skin of animals, for up to four hours, such inflammation being present twenty-four hours or more after the end of the
exposure period. Skin irritation may also be present after prolonged or repeated exposure; this may result in a form of
contact dermatitis (nonallergic). The dermatitis is often characterised by skin redness (erythema) and swelling (oedema)
which may progress to blistering (vesiculation), scaling and thickening of the epidermis.
Evidence exists, or practical experience predicts, that the material may cause severe eye irritation in a substantial number of
individuals and/or may produce significant ocular lesions which are present twenty-four hours or more after instillation into the
eye(s) of experimental animals. Eye contact may cause significant inflammation with pain. Corneal injury may occur;
permanent impairment of vision may result unless treatment is prompt and adequate. Repeated or prolonged exposure to
irritants may cause inflammation characterised by a temporary redness (similar to windburn) of the conjunctiva
(conjunctivitis); temporary impairment of vision and/or other transient eye damage/ulceration may occur.
Limited evidence suggests that repeated or long-term occupational exposure may produce cumulative health effects
involving organs or biochemical systems.
Chronic
acetone
Asthma-like symptoms may continue for months or even years after exposure to the material ceases. This may be due to a
non-allergenic condition known as reactive airways dysfunction syndrome (RADS) which can occur following exposure to high
levels of highly irritating compound. Key criteria for the diagnosis of RADS include the absence of preceding respiratory
disease, in a non-atopic individual, with abrupt onset of persistent asthma-like symptoms within minutes to hours of a
documented exposure to the irritant.

ACETONE
METHYL
METHACRYLATE
The material may cause skin irritation after prolonged or repeated exposure and may produce a contact dermatitis
(nonallergic). This form of dermatitis is often characterised by skin redness (erythema) and swelling epidermis.
Histologically there may be intercellular oedema of the spongy layer (spongiosis) and intracellular oedema of the
epidermis.
for acetone:
The acute toxicity of acetone is low.
The following information refers to contact allergens as a group and may not be specific to this product.
Contact allergies quickly manifest themselves as contact eczema, more rarely as urticaria or Quincke's oedema. The
pathogenesis of contact eczema involves a cell-mediated (T lymphocytes) immune reaction of the delayed type. Other
allergic skin reactions, e.g. contact urticaria, involve antibody-mediated immune reactions.
