Specific Hazards: Vapors can form explosive mixture with air, fire produces toxic fumes including carbon oxides and silicon oxides
Protective Equipment: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus, full protective gear
Precautions: Evacuate area, stay upwind, cool tanks with water spray, avoid runoff into sewers
Personal Precautions: Keep away from heat and open flames, ventilate area, use personal protective equipment including gloves and goggles
Environmental Precautions: Prevent from entering drains, sewers, waterways, soil contamination
Cleanup Methods: Contain spill with absorbent material (sand, vermiculite), collect and place in suitable container for disposal, clean area with water and detergent, dispose of waste properly
Handling: Avoid inhaling vapors or mists, prevent contact with skin and eyes, use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment, ground all containers, handle in well-ventilated areas, do not smoke near storage/use
Storage: Store in tightly closed, properly labeled containers, keep in a cool, ventilated place away from direct sunlight and incompatible substances (acids, oxidizers), keep away from food and drink, store at temperatures below 30°C, segregate from oxidizing agents, use only containers and piping systems compatible with alcohol and silane chemicals
Occupational Exposure Limits: Ethanol (ACGIH TLV: 1000 ppm), No established limit for Aminopropyltriethoxysilane
Engineering Controls: Ensure adequate ventilation, use fume hood or local exhaust
Personal Protective Equipment: Wear nitrile or neoprene gloves, safety goggles or face shield, flame-resistant lab coat, respiratory protection where vapor exceeds exposure limits
Hygiene Measures: Wash hands after use, avoid eating, drinking, or smoking during handling, remove contaminated clothing for cleaning before reuse

Acute Toxicity: Ethanol oral LD50 (rat): 7060 mg/kg, 3-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane oral LD50 (rat): 1780 mg/kg
Irritation: Causes moderate to severe eye and skin irritation
Respiratory Effects: Vapors may cause coughing, sore throat, and dizziness
Chronic Effects: Prolonged skin contact may cause dermatitis, long-term inhalation could affect liver and central nervous system
Sensitization: May cause skin and respiratory sensitization in some individuals
Carcinogenicity: Ethanol classified by IARC as Group 1 (carcinogenic to humans) in alcoholic beverage consumption; not relevant in industrial use
Ecotoxicity: Toxic to aquatic life in concentrated form, can affect micro-organisms
Persistence and Degradability: Ethanol biodegradable, silane component hydrolyzes and may degrade slowly
Bioaccumulation Potential: Low biomagnification risk
Mobility in Soil: High, likely to spread in water
Other Adverse Effects: Large spills can lower oxygen content in water and cause fish kill events
