**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Flammable. Irritating to respiratory system. Toxic to aquatic
organisms, may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic
environment. Harmful: may cause lung damage if swallowed.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation. May cause conjunctivitis.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. Exposure may cause irritation characterized
by redness, dryness, and inflammation. Not expected to cause an
allergic skin reaction. A single prolonged skin exposure is not
likely to result in the material being absorbed in harmful amounts.
Ingestion:
Aspiration hazard. Aspiration of material into the lungs may cause
chemical pneumonitis, which may be fatal. May be harmful if
swallowed. May cause central nervous system depression.
Inhalation:
Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause narcotic effects in
high concentration.
Chronic:
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis. Chronic
inhalation may cause effects similar to those of acute inhalation.
Repeated exposure may cause damage to the spleen. Prolonged exposure
can injure liver, kidneys and lungs.
**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****
Eyes:
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for
at least 15 minutes. Get medical aid.
Skin:
In case of contact, flush skin with plenty of water. Remove
contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if irritation
develops and persists. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
Potential for aspiration if swallowed. Get medical aid immediately.
Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical
personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Inhalation:
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial
respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively.
**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES ****
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full
protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases
may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Use water
spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Water may be ineffective.
Material is lighter than water and a fire may be spread by the use of
water. Flammable liquid and vapor. Vapors are heavier than air and
may travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Vapors can spread
along the ground and collect in low or confined areas. May accumulate
static electricity.
Extinguishing Media:
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or
alcohol-resistant foam. Water may be ineffective. This material is
lighter than water and insoluble in water. The fire could easily be
spread by the use of water in an area where the water cannot be
contained. For large fires, use water spray, fog or alcohol-resistant
foam. Do NOT use straight streams of water.
**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth),
then place in suitable container. Clean up spills immediately,
observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Remove all
sources of ignition. Use a spark-proof tool. Provide ventilation. A
vapor suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Ground and bond containers when transferring material. Use
spark-proof tools and explosion proof equipment. Avoid contact with
eyes, skin, and clothing. Empty containers retain product residue,
(liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Keep container tightly
closed. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind,
or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames. Use only
with adequate ventilation. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame.
Avoid breathing vapor or mist.
Storage:
Keep away from sources of ignition. Store in a tightly closed
container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from
incompatible substances. Flammables-area. Containers should be dated
when opened and tested periodically for the presence of peroxides.
Should crystals form in a peroxidizable liquid, peroxidation may
have occurred and the product should be considered extremely
dangerous. In this instance, the container should only be opened
remotely by professionals. Isolate from oxidizing materials and
acids. All peroxidizable substances should be stored away from heat
and light and be protected from ignition sources.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate general or
local explosion-proof ventilation to keep airborne levels to
acceptable levels.
