Fresh air, rest. Half-upright position. Refer for medical attention.
Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. Refer for medical attention .
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.
Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Give one or two glasses of water to drink. Refer for medical attention .
The liquid irritates eyes about as much as soap. Prolonged contact with skin produces irritation and dermatitis. (USCG, 1999)
Basic treatment: Establish a patent airway. Suction if necessary. Watch for signs of respiratory insufficiency and assist ventilations if necessary. Administer oxygen by nonrebreather mask at 10 to 15 L/min. Monitor for pulmonary edema and treat if necessary . Monitor for shock and treat if necessary . For eye contamination, flush eyes immediately with water. Irrigate each eye continuously with normal saline during transport . Do not use emetics. For ingestion, rinse mouth and administer 5 mL/kg up to 200 mL of water for dilution if the patient can swallow, has a strong gag reflex, and does not drool. Administer activated charcoal . Esters and related compounds
Fires involving this chemical can be controlled using a dry chemical, carbon dioxide or Halon extinguisher. (NTP, 1992)
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating vapors are generated when heated (USCG, 1999)
Use dry powder, carbon dioxide, foam. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying 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 covered containers as far as possible. Do NOT let this chemical enter the environment.

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. Above 61°C use a closed system and ventilation. 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.
Store only if stabilized. Cool. Well closed. Keep in the dark. Separated from strong oxidants, strong bases and strong acids. Separated from food and feedstuffs. Store in an area without drain or sewer access. Provision to contain effluent from fire extinguishing.Temp during storage must be kept low to minimize formation of peroxides and other oxidation products. ... Storage temp below 30 deg C are recommended for the polyfunctional methacrylates. ... The methacrylate monomers should not be stored for longer than one year. Shorter storage times are recommended for the aminomethacrylates, ie, three months, and the polyfunctional methacrylates, ie, six months. Many of these cmpd are sensitive to UV light and should, therefore, be stored in the dark. The methacrylic esters may be stored in mild steel, stainless steel, or aluminum.

The substance may polymerize due to heating and under the influence of light, peroxides and bases. Reacts violently with strong acids, strong bases and strong oxidants. This generates fire hazard.

Epoxides, such as GLYCIDYL METHACRYLATE, are highly reactive. They polymerize in the presence of catalysts or when heated. These polymerization reactions can be violent. Compounds in this group react with acids, bases, and oxidizing and reducing agents. They react, possibly violently with water in the presence of acid and other catalysts.

The substance is severely irritating to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract.
Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization.
A harmful contamination of the air can be reached very quickly on evaporation of this substance at 20°C.
Glycidyl methacrylate, present at 100 mg/l, reached 93-94% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum and the Japanese MITI test(1).
An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated for glycidyl methacrylate(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 0.81(1,SRC) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low.
Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc for glycidyl methacrylate can be estimated to be about 10(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that glycidyl methacrylate is expected to have very high mobility in soil.

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.
