**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Highly flammable.Highly flammable.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause mild eye irritation.
Skin:
May be absorbed through the skin in harmful amounts. May cause
irritation with burning pain, itching and redness.
Ingestion:
Ingestion of large amounts may cause gastrointestinal irritation.
May cause liver and kidney damage. May cause central nervous system
depression, characterized by excitement, followed by headache,
dizziness, drowsiness, and nausea. Advanced stages may cause
collapse, unconsciousness, coma and possible death due to respiratory
failure. May cause vascular collapse and damage. Aspiration of
material into the lungs may cause chemical pneumonitis, which may be
fatal.
Inhalation:
Inhalation of high concentrations may cause central nervous system
effects characterized by nausea, headache, dizziness, unconsciousness
and coma. May cause respiratory tract irritation. May be fatal if
exposed to high concentrations.
Chronic:
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause defatting and
dermatitis. May cause liver and kidney damage.
**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****
Eyes:
Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid. Do
NOT allow victim to rub or keep eyes closed.
Skin:
Flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes
while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if
irritation develops or persists. 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:
Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. If breathing is
difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid. 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:
**** 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. Extremely flammable. Material will
readily ignite at room temperature. Use water spray to keep
fire-exposed containers cool. Liquid will float and may reignite on
the surface of water. Vapors may be heavier than air. They can
spread along the ground and collect in low or confined areas. May
polymerize explosively when involved in a fire. Containers may
explode when heated.
Extinguishing Media:
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. 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. 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.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Use only in a well-ventilated area. Do not reuse
this container. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid
and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Keep container tightly closed.
Avoid contact with heat, sparks and flame. Do not get on skin or in
eyes. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Do not pressurize, cut, weld,
braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat,
sparks or open flames.
Storage:
Store in a tightly closed container. 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 exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below the
permissible exposure limits.
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 neoprene gloves, apron, and/or clothing. Wear
nitrile-latex gloves, apron, and/or clothing.
Clothing:
Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin
exposure.
Respirators:
Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29CFR
1910.134 or European Standard EN 149. Always use a
NIOSH or European Standard EN 149 approved respirator
when necessary.

**** SECTION 10 - STABILITY AND REACTIVITY ****
Chemical Stability:
Stable at room temperature in closed containers under normal storage
and handling conditions. Explosive peroxides may form on
concentration. Peroxides can be detonated by friction, impact, or
heating. Peroxide formation may occur in containers that have been
opened and remain in storage. Normally stable; however, on long term
storage, materials containing similar functional groups form
peroxides of unknown stability.
Conditions to Avoid:
Incompatible materials, ignition sources, excess heat, oxidizers.

Strong oxidizing agents, nitrogen dioxide.
Hazardous Decomposition Products:
Carbon monoxide, irritating and toxic fumes and gases, carbon
dioxide.
