Safety and Handling

Due to its volatility and moderate toxicity, careful handling of Dichloromethane is essential:

• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE):
  Always wear chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles, and protective clothing. Use a suitable respirator if ventilation is inadequate.

• Engineering Controls:
  Operate within a well-ventilated area or under a fume hood to avoid inhalation of vapors.

• Storage Recommendations:
  Store in tightly sealed, corrosion-resistant containers in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from heat or ignition sources.

• First Aid Measures:

• Inhalation: Remove the individual to fresh air and seek medical attention if symptoms persist.

• Skin Contact: Rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and remove contaminated clothing.

• Eye Contact: Flush eyes with water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical advice.

• Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting; seek immediate medical attention.
