**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Flammable. Harmful in contact with skin and if swallowed. Causes
burns.Corrosive.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye burns. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and corneal
damage. May cause tearing, conjunctivitis and corneal edema when
vapor is absorbed into the tissue of the eye.
Skin:
Harmful if absorbed through the skin. Causes skin burns. May cause
skin sensitization, an allergic reaction, which becomes evident upon
re-exposure to this material.
Ingestion:
Harmful if swallowed. Causes gastrointestinal tract burns. May cause
systemic effects. Ingestion may cause death unless teated promptly.
Inhalation:
Harmful if inhaled. Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract.
Inhalation may be fatal as a result of spasm, inflammation, edema of
the larynx and bronchi, chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema.
Aspiration may lead to pulmonary edema. Vapors may cause dizziness or
suffocation. May cause systemic effects. May cause burning sensation
in the chest. In cases of reported human cyclohexylamine vapor
exposure, workers developed nausea, lightheadedness, apprehension and
anxiety, drowsiness, slurred speech, vomiting and dilated pupils.
Chronic:
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis. Prolonged
exposure may produce a narcotic effect.
**** 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 immediately.
Skin:
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for
at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Get medical aid immediately. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Get medical aid immediately.
If victim is fully conscious, give a cupful of water. 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. Vapors may form an explosive mixture with air.
During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by
thermal decomposition or combustion. Flammable liquid and vapor.
Approach fire from upwind to avoid hazardous vapors and toxic
decomposition products. 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.
Extinguishing Media:
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or
alcohol-resistant foam. For large fires, use water spray, fog, or
alcohol-resistant foam. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed
containers. Do NOT use straight streams of water. Solid streams of
water may be ineffective and spread material.
**** 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. Use water spray to dilute spill to
a non-flammable mixture. Clean up spills immediately, observing
precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Scoop up with a
nonsparking tool, then place into a suitable container for disposal.
Use water spray to disperse the gas/vapor. Remove all sources of
ignition. Provide ventilation. A vapor suppressing foam may be used
to reduce vapors. Approach spill from upwind.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash hands before eating. Remove
contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Ground and bond
containers when transferring material. Use spark-proof tools and
explosion proof equipment. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on
clothing. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or
vapor), and can be dangerous. Keep container tightly closed. Keep
away from heat, sparks and flame. Do not ingest or inhale. Discard
contaminated shoes. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder,
drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or open
flames. Use only with adequate ventilation.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of
ignition. Keep container closed when not in use. Store in a tightly
closed container. Keep from contact with oxidizing materials. Store
in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible
substances. Keep away from organic halogens. Flammables-area. Keep
away from acids.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Local exhaust ventilation may be necessary to control any air
contaminants to within their TLVs during the use of this product.
Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment. Facilities storing or
utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility
and a safety shower.
