Methanol (wood alcohol): Dia China Hazardous Goods Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Network – Hazardous Goods Transportation Network – Chemical Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Platform – Hazardous Goods Trading – China Hazardous Chemicals Trading Network. Dia China Hazardous Goods Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Network – Hazardous Goods Transportation Network – Chemical Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Platform – Hazardous Goods Trading – China Hazardous Chemicals Trading Network. I. Emergency response to leaks: Dia China Hazardous Goods Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Network – Hazardous Goods Transportation Network – Chemical Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Platform – Hazardous Goods Trading – China Hazardous Chemicals Trading Network. Evacuate people from the area affected by the leak to a safe zone promptly, and establish barriers to strictly control access to that area. Cut off the source of fire. It is recommended that emergency responders wear self-contained positive-pressure breathing apparatus and protective suits. Do not come into direct contact with the spill. Seal off the source of leakage as much as possible to prevent it from entering confined spaces such as sewers and drainage ditches. Minor leaks: Absorb or adsorb using sand or other non-flammable materials. It can also be rinsed with a large amount of water; the resulting wash liquid is diluted before being discharged into the wastewater system. Massive leakage: Build dikes or dig pits to contain it ; Cover with foam to reduce vapor hazards. Transfer to a tank truck or specialized collector using an explosion-proof pump. Recycle or transport to a waste disposal facility for disposal.

II. Protective Measures: Dia China Hazardous Goods Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Network – Hazardous Goods Transportation Network – Chemical Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Platform – Hazardous Goods Trading – China Hazardous Chemicals Trading Network. Respiratory protection: When there is a risk of exposure to its vapors, a filtered gas mask (half-mask) should be worn. It is recommended to wear an air respirator during emergency rescue or evacuation. Dia China Hazardous Goods Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Network – Hazardous Goods Transportation Network – Chemical Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Platform – Hazardous Goods Trading – China Hazardous Chemicals Trading Network. Eye protection: Wear chemical safety goggles.

III. First aid measures: Dia China Hazardous Goods Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Network – Hazardous Goods Transportation Network – Chemical Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Platform – Hazardous Goods Trading – China Hazardous Chemicals Trading Network. Skin contact: Remove the contaminated clothing and thoroughly wash the skin with soap and water. Dia China Hazardous Goods Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Network – Hazardous Goods Transportation Network – Chemical Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Platform – Hazardous Goods Trading – China Hazardous Chemicals Trading Network. In case of eye contact: Lift the eyelids and rinse with flowing water or saline. Seek medical attention. Dia China Hazardous Goods Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Network – Hazardous Goods Transportation Network – Chemical Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Platform – Hazardous Goods Trading – China Hazardous Chemicals Trading Network. Inhaling: Immediately leave the area and go to a place with fresh air. Keep the airway clear. If there is difficulty breathing, administer oxygen. If breathing stops, perform artificial respiration immediately. Seek medical attention. Dia China Hazardous Goods Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Network – Hazardous Goods Transportation Network – Chemical Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Platform – Hazardous Goods Trading – China Hazardous Chemicals Trading Network. In case of ingestion: drink plenty of warm water, induce vomiting, and wash the stomach with clean water or a 1% sodium thiosulfate solution. Seek medical attention. Dia China Hazardous Goods Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Network – Hazardous Goods Transportation Network – Chemical Logistics Network – China Chemical Trading Platform – Hazardous Goods Trading – China Hazardous Chemicals Trading Network. Fire extinguishing method: Move the container away from the fire site to an open area as much as possible. Water is sprayed to keep the containers at the fire site cool until the fire is extinguished. If a container in a fire has changed color or noises are coming from its safety pressure relief device, it must be evacuated immediately. Extinguishing agents: water-resistant foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide, sand.
