Excerpt from ERG Guide 131P [Flammable Liquids - Toxic]: TOXIC; may be fatal if inhaled, ingested or absorbed through skin. Inhalation or contact with some of these materials will irritate or burn skin and eyes. Fire will produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution. (ERG, 2016)

Approach fire from upwind to avoid hazardous vapors and toxic decomposition products. Fight fire from protected location or maximum possible distance. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Use flooding quantities of water as fog or spray. Carbon dioxide may be used. Extinguish fire using agent suitable for surrounding fire.
Excerpt from ERG Guide 131P [Flammable Liquids - Toxic]: HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Vapor explosion and poison hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers. Those substances designated with a (P) may polymerize explosively when heated or involved in a fire. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. Containers may explode when heated. Many liquids are lighter than water. (ERG, 2016)
Use carbon dioxide, dry sand. NO hydrous agents. NO water. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water. NO direct contact with water.
Personal protection: filter respirator for organic gases and vapours adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Collect leaking and spilled liquid in sealable containers as far as possible. Absorb remaining liquid in sand or inert absorbent. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations. NEVER direct water jet on liquid.

NEVER direct water jet on liquid.
Collect and arrange disposal. Keep the chemical in suitable and closed containers for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition. Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Adhered or collected material should be promptly disposed of, in accordance with appropriate laws and regulations.
NO open flames, NO sparks and NO smoking. Above 33°C use a closed system, ventilation and explosion-proof electrical equipment. 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.
Fireproof. Separated from acids, bases and food and feedstuffs. Cooled. Dry. Store only if stabilized.Store at 32 deg F (0 deg C) in a standard flammable liquids storage warehouse, room, or cabinet. Special vented containers may be required. Separate from oxidizing materials, acids, and alkalies.

The substance slowly polymerizes. The substance violently polymerizes due to warming or under the influence of acids and bases. This generates fire or explosion hazard. Reacts violently with water.
Readily polymerizes on standing
MODERATE WHEN EXPOSED TO HEAT OR FLAMEDIKETENE is a very reactive dimer, it may undergo a spontaneous decomposition followed by explosion or ignition [Vervalin, 1973, p.86]. In the presence of bases, amines, mineral acids or Lewis acids a violent polymerization will occur, accompanied by gas evolution [Zdenek, F. et al., Czech Pat. 156 584, 1975].

The substance is severely irritating to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Inhalation of the vapour may cause lung oedema. See Notes.

A harmful contamination of the air can be reached rather quickly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.
In a 4 week closed bottle biodegradation study, using 100 mg/L acetyl ketene and 30 mg/L sludge, acetyl ketene had a theoretical BOD of 95-102%(1).
Based upon an estimated water solubility of 5.30X10+5 mg/L(1,SRC), the BCF for acetyl ketene can be estimated to be 0.365(1,SRC). This BCF value suggests that bioconcentration in aquatic organisms of acetyl ketene is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC).
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indexes(1), the Koc for acetyl ketene can be estimated to be about 6.3(1,SRC). Based on an estimated water solubility of 5.30X10+5(2,SRC) and a regression derived equation(2), the Koc for acetyl ketene can be estimated to be 3.1(2,SRC). According to a suggested classification scheme(3), these estimated Koc values suggest that acetyl ketene has very high soil mobility(SRC).

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.

Reacts violently with fire extinguishing agents such as water.The symptoms of lung oedema often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort.Rest and medical observation are therefore essential.Immediate administration of an appropriate inhalation therapy by a doctor or a person authorized by him/her, should be considered.An added stabilizer or inhibitor can influence the toxicological properties of this substance, consult an expert.Vinylaceto-beta-lactone is also used as a synonym.
