Fresh air, rest. Seek medical attention if you feel unwell.
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse and then wash skin with water and soap.
Rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible).
Rinse mouth. Rest. Do NOT induce vomiting. Seek medical attention if you feel unwell.
Liquid will cause burning of the eyes and may irritate skin. (USCG, 1999)
Immediate first aid: Ensure that adequate decontamination has been carried out. If patient is not breathing, start artificial respiration, preferably with a demand-valve resuscitator, bag-valve-mask device, or pocket mask, as trained. Perform CPR as necessary. Immediately flush contaminated eyes with gently flowing water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain an open airway and prevent aspiration. Keep patient quiet and maintain normal body temperature. Obtain medical attention. Higher alcohols (>3 carbons) and related compounds
Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary.
Combustible.
Use water, dry powder, carbon dioxide, alcohol-resistant foam.
Personal protection: filter respirator for organic gases and particulates adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment. Ventilation. Sweep spilled substance into sealable containers. If liquid: collect leaking liquid in containers. Absorb remaining liquid in inert absorbent. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.

Accidental Release Measures: ... Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not let product enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
NO contact with hot surfaces. Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
Cool. Well closed. Store in an area without drain or sewer access. Provision to contain effluent from fire extinguishing.Keep tightly closed. Store in a cool dry place.

Combustible when it is exposed to heat or flame.DODECANOL is an alcohol. Flammable and/or toxic gases are generated by the combination of alcohols with alkali metals, nitrides, and strong reducing agents. They react with oxoacids and carboxylic acids to form esters plus water. Oxidizing agents convert them to aldehydes or ketones. Alcohols exhibit both weak acid and weak base behavior. They may initiate the polymerization of isocyanates and epoxides.

Incompatible materials: Strong oxidizing agents.
When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and fumes.

AEROBIC: A 5-day theoretical BOD of 20% was observed for 1-dodecanol in an aerobic screening test using a sewage inoculum(1). A 5-day theoretical BOD of 23.2% was observed for 1-dodecanol in a standard BOD dilution test using a mixed microbial inoculum(2-3). A 5-day theoretical BOD of 27-29.7% was observed for 1-dodecanol in a standard BOD aerobic screening test using a sewage inoculum or an acclimated activated sludge inoculum(4); using a Warburg respirometer technique and a sewage inoculum, a 6-hr theoretical BOD of 15.2% was observed(4). Using a Warburg respirometer technique and various activated sludge inoculum, respective 6-hr, 12-hr and 24-hr theoretical BODs of 4.5, 10.1 and 13.4% were observed(5). 1-Dodecanol was found to be readily biodegraded(6).
An estimated BCF of 48 was calculated in fish for 1-dodecanol(SRC), using a log Kow of 5.13(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate(SRC).
Koc values of 2042-3388 were reported for 1-dodecanol in humic acid(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this Koc range suggests that 1-dodecanol is expected to have slight mobility in soil. Koc values of 2570-6574, 2337-11,184, 7700 and 16,700-17,981 were reported for 1-dodecanol in activated sludge, sediment, suspended solids and suspended solids with activated sludge, respectively(1).

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
