Emergency overview: Appearance: Clear, colorless liquid Flash Point: 71.6°F (22°C) Warning! Flammable liquid and vapor. Vapor harmful. Inhalation may affect the brain or nervous system causing dizziness, headache or nausea. Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking. Routes of Entry: Skin contact, Inhalation, Ingestion, Eye contact Potential Health Effects Eye: Causes eye irritation. Vapors cause eye irritation. Skin: May cause skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause defatting of the skin or dermatitis. Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed. Ingestion is not an expected route of entry in industrial or commercial uses. May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause CNS depression. Inhalation: Respiratory system irritant. May cause a variety of symptoms such as dryness of the throat, tightness of the chest, and shortness of breath. May cause central nervous system depression, characterized by headache, dizziness, staggering gait, confusion, unconsciousness or coma. Chronic: Repeated or prolonged solvent overexposure may result in permanent central nervous system damage. Chronic skin contact may cause dermatitis.
Eyes: Flush eyes immediately with copious amounts of water, holding the eyelids open, for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention. Skin: Flush skin with copious amounts of water, while removing contaminated clothing. Wash affected skin areas with soap and water. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Seek medical attention if symptoms develop. Ingestion: If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a physician or poison control center immediately for further instructions. Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Give artificial respiration if breathing has stopped. Seek immediate medical attention.
General Information:
Flash point: 71.6°F, 22°C
Explosive Limits:
Upper: 7.6
Lower: 1.3
Autoignition Temperature: 407°C (764.6°F)
Extinguishing Media:
Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Foam, Water Fog
Firefighting Procedures:
Wear full firefighting protective clothing, including a full face piece,
positive pressure, self contained breathing apparatus. Water spray may be
ineffective. If water is used, fog nozzles are preferable. For large fires,
water may be ineffective.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards:
Flammable liquid and vapor. Keep containers tightly closed. Keep away from
heat, electrical equipment, sparks, open flames, other sources of ignition.
Use water spray to keep fire exposed containers cool. Closed containers may
rupture when exposed to extreme heat. Vapors are heavier than air and may
travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Vapors can spread along the
ground and collect in low or confined areas. Under fire conditions,
irritating and/or toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or
combustion.
General Information:
Before attempting clean-up, refer to hazard caution information in other
sections of the msds.
Spills/Leaks:
Spill Response:
Evacuate the area of all unnecessary personnel.
Action to take for spills:
For small spills: Absorb with inert material and place in a suitable
container for disposal.
For large spills: Get workers out of the affected area. If flammable
liquids or vapors may be present, turn off electrical devices or other
sources of sparks or flames. Wear protective equipment. Use supplied-air
respiratory protection if vapor concentrations are not known. Contain
spill at source by diking or absorbing with sand. Do not allow spill to
spread to or intentionally flush to sewer or ground. Wash area thoroughly.
Adequately ventilate area. Use spark-proof tool.
Handling: Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. Keep container tightly closed and upright to prevent leakage. Ground and bond containers when transferring material. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wash thoroughly after handling. Avoid breathing of vapor or spray mists. Use with adequate ventilation. Empty containers should not be re-used. Because empty containers may retain product residue and flammable vapors, keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Do not cut, puncture or weld on or near the empty container. Do not smoke where product is used or stored. Storage: Do not store or use near heat, sparks or open flame. Store only in well-ventilated “flammables” areas. Do not puncture, drag or slide container. Keep container closed when not in use. Refer to OSHA 29CFR Part 1910.103 “Flammable and Combustible Liquids” for specific storage requirements.
Engineering Controls:
Safety shower and eyewash station must be readily available.
Ventilation sufficient to maintain air contaminant levels below
recommended exposure limits must be provided. Solvent vapors
are heavier than air and collect in lower levels of the work
area. Explosion-proof ventilation equipment should be provided
to prevent flammable vapor/air mixtures from accumulating.

Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes: Chemical splash goggles or safety glasses with side shields
Skin: Neoprene, nitrile, or rubber gloves
Clothing: Use disposable or impervious clothing if work clothing
contamination is likely. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
Respirators: Consult ANSI Standard Z988.2 for decision logic to select
appropriate NIOSH/MESA approved respirators. If respirators are needed to meet
applicable limits, a respiratory protection program up to the level of OSHA
Standard 290CFR 1910.134 is mandatory.

CAS# 123-86-4: AF 7350000
Butyl acetate:
Toxic effects described in animals include:
By skin or eye contact:
Skin Irritation; eye irritation
By inhalation:
Eye irritation, narcosis; upper respiratory irritation
By ingestion:
Narcosis
Toxic effects of repeated or prolonged animal exposures include:
By inhalation:
Eye irritation; lower weight gain
By ingestion: Liver effects
Toxic effects of chronic animal tests include:
By inhalation: Liver effects
Additional animal tests have shows:
Developmental toxicity at dosage levels showing maternal toxicity; no genetic
damage in animals, bacterial, or mammalian cell cultures.
Human health effects of overexposure may include:
By skin or eye contact: Skin irritation with discomfort, tearing, or blurring
of vision
By inhalation: Irritation of the upper respiratory passages with coughing and
discomfort; nonspecific discomfort, e. g. nausea, headache or weakness.
Human effects of higher level acute repeated or chronic overexposure may include:
Temporary nervous system depression with anaesthetic effect, e. g.
dizziness, headache, confusion, loss of coordination, loss of consciousness.
Abnormal liver function as detected by laboratory tests.
In addition:
By skin or eye contact:
Significant skin permeation appears unlikely; there are inconclusive or
unverified reports of human sensitization.
Exotoxicity: No information found in our selected sources. Environmental Fate: Volatilization from dry soil surfaces is likely to be rapid. N-butyl acetate may be subject to moderate-to-high leaching and is expected to be susceptible to significant biodegradation in natural water. Bioaccumulation: Not expected to occur.
Use only licensed transporters and permitted disposal facilities and conform to all laws. The user of this material has the responsibility to dispose of unused materials, residues and containers in compliance with all relevant local, state and federal laws and regulations regarding treatment, storage and disposal for hazardous and nonhazardous wastes.
