Section IV.First Aid Measures
Eye ContactCheck for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes. Get medical attention.
Skin ContactIn case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing
before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse. Get medical attention.
InhalationIf the victim is not breathing, perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or
waistband. If breathing is difficult, oxygen can be administered. Seek medical attention if respiration problems do not
improve.
IngestionINDUCE VOMITING by sticking finger in throat. Lower the head so that the vomit will not reenter the mouth and throat.
Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. If the victim is not breathing, perform mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation. Examine the lips and mouth to ascertain whether the tissues are damaged, a possible indication that the
toxic material was ingested; the absence of such signs, however, is not conclusive.

Section XII.Ecological Information
EcotoxicityNot available.
Environmental Fatesoluble at lowe
Ethyl acetate's production and use as a pharmaceutic aid, in artificial fruit essences, and as a solvent may result in its
release to the environment through various waste streams. If released to air, a vapor pressure of 93 mm Hg at 25 deg C
indicates ethyl acetate will exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase ethyl acetate will be degraded
in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is
estimated to be 9.4 days. If released to soil, ethyl acetate is expected to have high mobility based upon an estimated Koc
of 59. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is expected to occur based upon a Henry's Law constant of 1.34X10-4 atm-cu
m/mole. Ethyl acetate's vapor pressure indicates the potential for volatilization from dry soil surfaces exists.
Biodegradation is expected to be an important process in both soil and water, based upon ethyl acetate's biodegradation
in aqueous screening studies. 93% biodegradation was observed in a complete mix continuous-flow activated sludge
system. 26.6 and 57.1% of ethyl acetate's theoretical BOD was reached in 5 days using the standard dilution method and
seawater dilution method, respectively. If released into water, ethyl acetate is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids
and sediment in water based on the estimated Koc. Volatilization from water surfaces is expected to be an important fate
process based on ethyl acetate's Henry's Law constant. Estimated volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake
are 8.9 hours and 5.6 days, respectively. An estimated BCF of 3.2 suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic
organisms is low. Ethyl acetate's hydrolysis half-life at 25 deg C and pH 7 is 2.0 years. Occupational exposure to ethyl
acetate may occur through inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where ethyl acetate is
produced or used or where adhesives, thinners, degreasers, paints, inks, and dome reagents are used. The general
population may be exposed to ethyl acetate via inhalation of ambient air, ingestion of food and drinking water, or dermal
contact with consumer products containing this compound.

Section XIII. Disposal Considerations
Waste DisposalRecycle to process, if possible. Consult your local regional authorities. You may be able to dissolve or mix material with a
combustible solvent and burn in a chemical incinerator equipped with an afterburner and scrubber system. Observe all
federal, state and local regulations when disposing of the substance.
