- First Aid: EYES: First check the victim for contact lenses and remove if present. Flush victim's eyes with water or normal saline solution for 20 to 30 minutes while simultaneously calling a hospital or poison control center. Do not put any ointments, oils, or medication in the victim's eyes without specific instructions from a physician. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim after flushing eyes to a hospital even if no symptoms (such as redness or irritation) develop.; SKIN: IMMEDIATELY flood affected skin with water while removing and isolating all contaminated clothing. Gently wash all affected skin areas thoroughly with soap and water. If symptoms such as redness or irritation develop, IMMEDIATELY call a physician and be prepared to transport the victim to a hospital for treatment.; INHALATION: IMMEDIATELY leave the contaminated area; take deep breaths of fresh air. If symptoms (such as wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, or burning in the mouth, throat, or chest) develop, call a physician and be prepared to transport the victim to a hospital. Provide proper respiratory protection to rescuers entering an unknown atmosphere. Whenever possible, Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) shou Source: CAMEO Chemicals

- Environmental Bioconcentration: Based upon an estimated log Kow of -1.39(1), the BCF for aminoethyl ethanolamine can be estimated to be 0.05 from a recommended regression-derived equation(2,SRC). This estimated BCF value indicates that bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is not important. Aminoethyl ethanolamine is miscible in water(3) which also indicates that bioconcentration is not important(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
- Environmental Fate: TERRESTRIAL FATE: The results of one biodegradation screening study have indicated that aminoethyl ethanolamine biodegrades readily(1); therefore, biodegradation may be an important transformation process in soil(SRC). Aminoethyl ethanolamine has a pKa of 7.21(2) that indicates it can exist in both the protonated and neutral forms in environmental media; neutral aminoethyl ethanolamine is expected to leach readily. However, the mobility of protonated aminoethyl ethanolamine in soil can not be predicted without additional experimental data(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
- Environmental Fate: AQUATIC FATE: The results of one biodegradation screening study have indicated that aminoethyl ethanolamine biodegrades readily(1); therefore, biodegradation may be an important transformation process in water. Aquatic bioconcentration and volatilization are not expected to be important because of the high solubility of aminoethyl ethanolamine(SRC). Source: Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB)
- Environmental Fate: ATMOSPHERIC FATE: Based upon a vapor pressure of 8.19X10-4 mm Hg at 25 °C(1), aminoethyl ethanolamine is expected to exist primarily in the vapor-phase in the ambient atmosphere(2,SRC). It will degrade rapidly in the atmosphere by the vapor-phase reaction with photochemically produced hydroxyl radicals with an estimated half-life of 3.3 hr(3,SRC). Aminoethyl ethanolamine is miscible with water(4), therefore, physical removal from air by wet deposition (dissolution in clouds, rainfall, etc) is possible(SRC).
