symptoms/effects, acute
and delayed:
Protection of first-aiders: A rescuer should wear personal protective equipment, such as rubber gloves and
air-tight goggles.
Section 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable extinguishing Dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide.
media:
Unsuitable extinguishing Water (It may scatter and spread fire.)
media:
Specific hazards arising Take care as it may decompose upon combustion or in high temperatures to
from the chemical: generate poisonous fume.
Precautions for firefighters: Fire-extinguishing work is done from the windward and the suitable fire-extinguishing
method according to the surrounding situation is used. Uninvolved persons should
evacuate to a safe place. In case of fire in the surroundings: Keep containers cool by
spraying with water. Eliminate all ignition sources if safe to do so.
Special protective When extinguishing fire, be sure to wear personal protective equipment.
equipment for firefighters:
Section 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, Use extra personal protective equipment (self-contained breathing apparatus). Keep
protective equipment and people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Ensure adequate ventilation. Entry to
emergency procedures: non-involved personnel should be controlled around the leakage area by roping off,
etc.
Environmental precautions: Prevent product from entering drains.
Methods and materials for Absorb spilled material in dry sand or inert absorbent before recovering it into an
containment and cleaning airtight container. In case of large amount of spillage, contain a spill by bunding.
up: Adhered or collected material should be promptly disposed of, in accordance with
appropriate laws and regulations.
Prevention of secondary Remove all sources of ignition. Fire-extinguishing devices should be prepared in case
hazards: of a fire. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment.

Precautions for safe handling
Triethoxysilane
Section 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Technical measures: Handling is performed in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective equipment.
Prevent generation of vapour or mist. Keep away from heat/sparks/open flame/hot
surfaces. -No smoking. Take measures to prevent the build up of electrostatic
charge. Use explosion-proof equipment. Wash hands and face thoroughly after
handling.
Use a closed system if possible. Use a ventilation, local exhaust if vapour or aerosol
will be generated.
Advice on safe handling: Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.
May develop pressure. Open carefully.
Conditions for safe storage, including any
incompatibilities
Storage conditions: Keep container tightly closed. Store in a cool, dark and well-ventilated place.
Store under inert gas.
Protect from moisture.
Store locked up.
Store away from incompatible materials such as oxidizing agents.
Moisture-sensitive
Packaging material: Comply with laws.
Section 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering controls: Install a closed system or local exhaust. Also install safety shower and eye bath.
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection: Half or full facepiece respirator, self-contained breathing apparatus(SCBA), supplied
air respirator, etc. Use respirators approved under appropriate government standards
and follow local and national regulations.
Hand protection: Impervious gloves.
Eye protection: Safety goggles. A face-shield, if the situation requires.
Skin and body protection: Impervious protective clothing. Protective boots, if the situation requires.
