Navigating Chemical Safety: Understanding Hazards of Methyl 4-tert-butylbenzoate
In the chemical industry, safety is paramount. Understanding the hazard classifications and necessary precautions for chemicals like Methyl 4-tert-butylbenzoate (CAS 26537-19-9) is crucial for responsible manufacturing and product development. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., as a dedicated supplier, emphasizes the importance of safe handling and provides essential information to its B2B clients.
Methyl 4-tert-butylbenzoate is classified under the Globally Harmonised System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) with the GHS07 pictogram, commonly known as the 'Exclamation mark.' This classification indicates it possesses health hazards, including potential for skin irritation, eye irritation, and respiratory tract irritation. The associated signal word is 'Warning.' The specific hazard statements assigned are H302 (Harmful if swallowed), H312 (Harmful in contact with skin), and H332 (Harmful if inhaled). These classifications necessitate careful handling to minimize exposure.
To ensure safety when working with Methyl 4-tert-butylbenzoate, strict adherence to precautionary statements is vital. This includes avoiding inhalation of dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray (P261), and the imperative of seeking medical advice if swallowed, with instructions to call a POISON CENTER or doctor if you feel unwell (P301 + P312). Additionally, prompt action is required in case of skin or inhalation exposure: P302 + P352 (IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of water) and P304 + P340 (IF INHALED: Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing). Protective measures like wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) are non-negotiable.
Appropriate PPE for handling Methyl 4-tert-butylbenzoate includes chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles or a face shield, and respiratory protection such as an N95 dust mask or suitable respirator, depending on the exposure level. Proper ventilation in the workspace is also essential to prevent the accumulation of hazardous vapors.
