Description of first aid measures
If inhaledMove the victim into fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration and consult a doctor immediately. Do not use mouth to mouth resuscitation if the victim ingested or inhaled the chemical.
Take off contaminated clothing immediately. Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a doctor.
Rinse with pure water for at least 15 minutes. Consult a doctor.
Rinse mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a doctor or Poison Control Center immediately.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Inhalation overexposure unlikely, but prolonged exposure may cause lung edema. Contact with eyes may cause irritation. Solutions are severe primary skin irritants. (USCG, 1999)
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Should be washed promptly from the skin to prevent irritation. Peroxides, org
Extinguishing media
Fight fires from explosion-resistant location. in advanced or massive fires, area should be evacuated. ... it is essential to maintain proper temp control of refrigeration system as material will decomp @ 53 deg f to release flammable products which must be properly vented. clean-up & salvage operations should not be attempted until deep-freeze unit has cooled completely. due caution should be exercised because of possibility of adverse contamination and chem change after heat exposure.
Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Flammable and/or toxic gases formed in fires include acetone, isopropyl alcohol, acetaldehyde, and ethane. Behavior in Fire: Undergoes auto- accelerative decomposition and may self-ignite. Confinement may lead to detonation. Fires very difficult to extinguish because air not needed (USCG, 1999)
Advice for firefighters
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
NFPA 704
| HEALTH | 3 | Short exposure could cause serious temporary or moderate residual injury (e.g. liquid hydrogen, sulfuric acid, calcium hypochlorite, hexafluorosilicic acid) | |
| FIRE | 4 | Will rapidly or completely vaporize at normal atmospheric pressure and temperature, or is readily dispersed in air and will burn readily. Includes pyrophoric substances. Flash point below room temperature at 22.8 °C (73 °F). (e.g. acetylene, propane, hydrogen gas) | |
| REACT | 4 | Readily capable of detonation or explosive decomposition at normal temperatures and pressures (e.g. nitroglycerin,chlorine dioxide, nitrogen triiodide) | |

Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing mist, gas or vapours.Avoid contacting with skin and eye. Use personal protective equipment.Wear chemical impermeable gloves. Ensure adequate ventilation.Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.
Environmental precautions
Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Collect and arrange disposal. Keep the chemical in suitable and closed containers for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Adhered or collected material should be promptly disposed of, in accordance with appropriate laws and regulations.
Precautions for safe handling
Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Should be stored in deep-freeze...unit in well-ventilated, unheated, well-detached, noncombustible building...must be stored @ low temp (below 0 deg f). refrigerated product should be placed in deep-freeze box with free-opening cover in...building. refrigerating unit & all electrical equip should be outside... alarm system.../needed/ to indicate any abnormal temp...within deep-freeze box. protect against physical damage. do not open containers in storage building.

Exposure controls
Ensure adequate ventilation. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Set up emergency exits and the risk-elimination area.
Individual protection measures
Eye/face protectionWear tightly fitting safety goggles with side-shields conforming to EN 166(EU) or NIOSH (US).
Wear fire/flame resistant and impervious clothing. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.
If the exposure limits are exceeded, irritation or other symptoms are experienced, use a full-face respirator.

Possibility of hazardous reactions
REACTIVE, OXIDIZING, COMBUSTIBLE CMPD. ... SHOCK & HEAT SENSITIVE. DANGEROUS WHEN EXPOSED TO HEAT & FLAME. SPONTANEOUS CHEM REACTION, IGNITION...MAY OCCUR IF MIXED WITH READILY OXIDIZABLE, ORG OR FLAMMABLE MATERIALS OR CHEM ACCELERATORS.ISOPROPYL PEROXYDICARBONATE decomposes violently or explosively at temperatures 0-10°C owing to self- accelerating exothermic decomposition; Several explosions were due to shock, heat, or friction; amines and certain metals can cause accelerated decomposition [Bretherick 1979 p. 156]. Spontaneous decomposition possible at room temperature to release flammable and corrosive products (presence of stabilizer reduces this possibility). A strong oxidizing agent. May ignite organic compounds on contact, hence a fire risk. Strongly reduced material such as sulfides, nitrides, and hydrides can react explosively. Reacts at least to produce heat when mixed with members of most chemical classes. These reactions often generate gases (toxic and nontoxic). Subject to decomposition, buildup of heat and even an explosion if contaminated with a catalyst (often a transition metal such as cobalt, iron, manganese, nickel, or vanadium or a salt of a transition metal).
