When you are dealing with this chemical, you should be very careful. This chemical is inflammation to the skin, eyes and respiratory system or other mucous membranes. And it may catch fire in contact with air, only need brief contact with an ignition source and have a very low flash point or evolve highly flammable gases in contact with water. Therefore, you should wear suitable gloves and eye/face protection. What's more, you should keep away from sources of ignition and avoid contacting with skin and eyes. And in case of contacting with eyes, you should rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.
