Fresh air, rest.
Rinse contaminated clothes (fire hazard) with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothes.
First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention.
Rinse mouth.

Use dry chemical, carbon dioxide or alcohol-resistant foam.
Highly flammable. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. Risk of explosion on friction or on shock. Risk of explosion when exposed to heat, flame, sparks or electrostatic discharges.
Use water in large amounts. NO foam, carbon dioxide. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water.
Remove all ignition sources. Keep wet. Do not allow to dry out. Consult an expert! Personal protection: particulate filter respirator adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Sweep spilled substance into sealable containers. Then store and dispose of according to local regulations.
Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
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. PREVENT DISPERSION OF DUST. Use non-sparking handtools. Do NOT expose to heat, friction or shock. Prevent build-up of electrostatic charges (e.g., by grounding). 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. Well closed. Cool. Keep in a well-ventilated room. Separated from oxidants, bases and acids. Store only if damped. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for proper storage conditions.

The substance is very sensitive to heat, shock, friction, naked flames, sparks or electrostatic discharges. This generates fire and explosion hazard. Dust explosion possible if in powder or granular form, mixed with air. See Notes.Decomposes rapidly on burning. This produces nitrogen oxides. Reacts with oxidants, bases and acids. This generates fire and explosion hazard. See Notes.

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.

Insufficient data are available on the effect of this substance on human health and environment.The commercial products are damped (with water or solvents) or mixed with plasticizers to reduce the fire and explosion hazards of dry nitrocellulose. These agents may change the physical and toxicological properties.If the substance is formulated with solvents also consult the ICSCs of these materials.The formulation with more than 12.6% nitrogen is used exclusively for the manufacture of explosives.Nitrocellulose, with water, not less than 25% water by weight: UN 2555; UN Hazard class: 4.1.Nitrocellulose, with alcohol, not less than 25% alcohol by weight, and not more than 12.6% nitrogen: UN 2556; UN Hazard class: 4.1.Nitrocellulose, with not more than 12.6% nitrogen dry weight, mixture with or without plasticizer, with or without pigment: UN 2557; UN Hazard class: 4.1.
