	ACUTE HAZARDS	PREVENTION	FIRE FIGHTING
FIRE & EXPLOSION	Flammable.	NO open flames, NO sparks and NO smoking. Prevent build-up of electrostatic charges (e.g., by grounding).	Use powder, alcohol-resistant foam, water spray, carbon dioxide.


	SYMPTOMS	PREVENTION	FIRST AID
Inhalation		Use ventilation, local exhaust or breathing protection.	Fresh air, rest.
Skin	Dry skin.	Protective gloves.	Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower.
Eyes	Redness.	Wear safety spectacles.	First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.
Ingestion		Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work.	Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting.

SPILLAGE DISPOSAL	CLASSIFICATION & LABELLING
Remove all ignition sources. Personal protection: filter respirator for organic gases and particulates adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Collect leaking liquid in covered containers. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.	According to UN GHS Criteria WARNING Flammable liquid and vapour Causes mild skin irritation May be harmful if swallowed and enters airways Very toxic to aquatic life Transportation UN Classification UN Hazard Class: 3; UN Pack Group: III
STORAGE
Fireproof. Provision to contain effluent from fire extinguishing. Store in an area without drain or sewer access.

EXPOSURE & HEALTH EFFECTS
Routes of exposure The substance can be absorbed into the body by inhalation. Effects of short-term exposure The substance is irritating to the skin. If swallowed the substance easily enters the airways and could result in aspiration pneumonitis.	Inhalation risk No indication can be given about the rate at which a harmful concentration of this substance in the air is reached on evaporation at 20°C. Effects of long-term or repeated exposure The substance defats the skin, which may cause dryness or cracking.

EXPOSURE & HEALTH EFFECTS

Effects of short-term exposure
The substance is irritating to the skin. If swallowed the substance easily enters the airways and could result in aspiration pneumonitis.

Inhalation risk
No indication can be given about the rate at which a harmful concentration of this substance in the air is reached on evaporation at 20°C.

Effects of long-term or repeated exposure
The substance defats the skin, which may cause dryness or cracking.

OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE LIMITS

ENVIRONMENT
The substance is very toxic to aquatic organisms. Bioaccumulation of this chemical may occur in aquatic organisms. The substance may cause long-term effects in the aquatic environment. It is strongly advised not to let the chemical enter into the environment.

NOTES
The CAS # 25339-53-1 is for a group of linear decenes with varying position of the internal double bond. For the isomer 1-decene (CAS # 872-05-9) see ICSC 1477. Refer for medical attention if breathing difficulties and/or fever develop.
