**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Highly flammable. Harmful : danger of serious damage to health by
prolonged exposure through inhalation.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes mild eye irritation. Causes redness and pain. May cause
blurred vision, tearing, and conjunctivitis.
Skin:
Causes irritation with burning pain, itching, and redness. May cause
blistering of the skin. Absorbed through the skin.
Ingestion:
Aspiration hazard. May cause gastrointestinal irritation with
nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause effects similar to those
for inhalation exposure. Aspiration of material into the lungs may
cause chemical pneumonitis, which may be fatal. May cause central
nervous system effects. Aspiration can cause asphyxia, brain damage,
and cardiac arrest. May cause cardiac sensitization.
Inhalation:
Causes respiratory tract irritation. Exposure produces central
nervous system depression. Aspiration may cause respiratory swelling
and pneumonitis. Inhalation of high concentrations may cause
narcotic effects. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Exposure
may cause vertigo, hallucinations, fatigue, muscle weakness, visual
disturbances, nervous system disturbances, coughing, chest pains,
difficulty in breathing, lung irritation, gastrointestinal
disturbances, and edema which may be fatal.
Chronic:
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause defatting and
dermatitis. Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause adverse
reproductive effects. Chronic exposure may cause visual
disturbances. Laboratory experiments have resulted in mutagenic
effects. Repeated exposure may cause nervous system abnormalities
with muscle weakness and damage, motor incoordination, and sensation
disturbances. Chronic exposure produces peripheral neuropathy.
Chronic exposure to vapors may produce polyneuropathy.
**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****
Eyes:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin:
Get medical aid. Immediately flush skin with plenty of soap and
water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing
and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
Do NOT induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4
cupfuls of milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person. Possible aspiration hazard. Get medical aid
immediately.
Inhalation:
Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure to fresh air
immediately. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Do NOT use
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing has ceased apply
artificial respiration using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device
such as a bag and a mask.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively. For ingestion, the stomach
sould be intubated, aspirated, and lavaged with a slurry of activated
charcoal--protect the airway from aspiration of gastric contents.
Monitor arterial blood gases in cases of severe aspiration.
**** 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.
Vapors can travel to a source of ignition and flash back. 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. Extremely flammable liquid and vapor. Water may be
ineffective. Material is lighter than water and a fire may be spread
by the use of water. Containers may explode in the heat of a fire.
Vapors may be heavier than air. They can spread along the ground and
collect in low or confined areas. Will be easily ignited by heat,
sparks or flame.
Extinguishing Media:
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or
alcohol-resistant foam. 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. If water is
the only media available, use in flooding amounts. For large fires,
use water spray, fog or alcohol-resistant foam. Do NOT use straight
streams of water. For large fires, use water spray, fog or regular
foam. For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray
or regular foam. Contact professional fire-fighters immediately.
Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after
fire is out.
**** 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. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and
ditches which lead to waterways. Clean up spills immediately,
observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Wear a
self contained breathing apparatus and appropriate Personal
protection. (See Exposure Controls, Personal Protection section).
Scoop up with a nonsparking tool, then place into a suitable
container for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition. Provide
ventilation. A vapor suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Use only in a well-ventilated area. Ground and
bond containers when transferring material. Use spark-proof tools and
explosion proof equipment. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and
clothing. Do not breathe dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Empty containers
retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous.
Take precautionary measures against static discharges. Avoid contact
with heat, sparks and flame. Do not ingest or inhale. Prevent build
up of vapors to explosive concentration. Do not pressurize, cut,
weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to
heat, sparks or open flames.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of
ignition. Do not store in direct sunlight. Store in a tightly closed
container. Keep from contact with oxidizing materials. Store in a
cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
Flammables-area.
**** 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.
Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes:
Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical
safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face
protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European
Standard EN166.
Skin:
Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin
exposure.
Clothing:
Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin
exposure.
Respirators:
A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29
CFR ??1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements or European
Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace
conditions warrant a respirator's use.
