Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures

General Information: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. Vapors may form an explosive mixture with air. Vapors can travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Will burn if involved in a fire. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Containers may explode in the heat of a fire. Flammable liquid and vapor. Vapors may be heavier than air. They can spread along the ground and collect in low or confined areas.
Extinguishing Media: For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or alcohol-resistant foam. For large fires, use water spray, fog, or alcohol-resistant foam. In case of fire, use water, dry chemical, chemical foam, or alcohol-resistant foam. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers. Water may be ineffective. Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Do NOT use straight streams of water.

Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures

General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks: Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth), then place in suitable container. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Remove all sources of ignition. Use a spark-proof tool. Provide ventilation. A vapor suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors.

Section 7 - Handling and Storage

Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Use only in a well-ventilated area. Ground and bond containers when transferring material. Use spark-proof tools and explosion proof equipment. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames.
Storage: Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of ignition. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Flammables-area.

Section 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection

Engineering Controls: Use adequate general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below the permissible exposure limits.

Section 12 - Ecological Information

Ecotoxicity: Fish: Fathead Minnow: LC50 = 131.0 mg/L; 96 Hr.; Flow-through Bioassay No data available.
Environmental: If released to soil, calculated soil adsorption coefficients ranging from 44-285 indicate that 2-heptanone may display moderate to high mobility and it has the potential to leach into groundwater. Heptanone has the potential to biodegrade in soil. If released to water, 2-heptanone is expected to rapidly volatile to the atmosphere. The half-life for volatilization from a model river 1 m deep, flowing at 1 m/sec with a wind speed of 3 m/sec is 8.4hr.
Physical: If released to the atmosphere, 2-heptanone is expected to undergo a gas-phase reaction with photochemically produced hydroxyl radicals; the estimated half-life for this process is 1.9days. 2-Heptanone's relatively high water solubility, 4300 mg/l at 25 deg C, indicates that it may undergo atmospheric removal by wet deposition processes.
Other: 2-Heptanone had a theoretical biological oxygen demand (BOD) of 1.4%, 2.4% and 4.8% after 6, 12 and 24 hr, respectively, when incubated with a activated sludge seed at an initial concentration of 500 ppm. 2-Heptanone underwent a 5 day theoretical BOD of 44%. In a screening study using a sewage seed, 2-heptanone had a 10 day BOD of 0.50 g/g.
