**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Harmful by inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed.
Irritating to eyes, respiratory system and skin.The toxicological
properties of this material have not been fully investigated.

Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation. May cause chemical conjunctivitis.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. Most nitrile compounds are well absorbed
through intact skin, and may cause delayed onset of symptoms
following exposure by this route.
Ingestion:
May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea. May cause cardiac disturbances. May cause central nervous
system depression.
Inhalation:
Causes respiratory tract irritation. Inhalation may result in
symptoms similar to cyanide poisoning which include tachypnea,
hyperpnea (abnormally rapid or deep breathing), and dyspnea (labored
breathing) followed rapidly by respiratory depression. Pulmonary
edema may occur.
Chronic:
May be metabolized to cyanide which in turn acts by inhibiting
cytochrome oxidase impairing cellular respiration. Exposure to small
amounts of cyanide compounds over long periods of time is reported
to cause loss of appetite, headache, weakness, nausea, dizziness, and
symptoms of irritation of the upper respiratory tract and eyes.

**** 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, 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 unless directed to do so by
medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person. Get medical aid.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move 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:
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. Containers may explode
when heated. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause
pollution. Approach fire from upwind to avoid hazardous vapors and
toxic decomposition products. Combustion by-products include oxides
of nitrogen and hydrogen cyanide.
Extinguishing Media:
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or water spray.
For large fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, alcohol-resistant
foam, or water spray. 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:
Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal
container. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the
Protective Equipment section. Avoid generating dusty conditions.
Provide ventilation.

**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****

Handling:
Minimize dust generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes,
skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion
and inhalation. Use with adequate ventilation. Wash clothing before
reuse.
Storage:
Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.

**** 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
ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low.
Exposure Limits
CAS# 2042-37-7:


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:
Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29
CFR 1910.134 or European Standard EN 149. Use a
NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 149 approved
respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or if
irritation or other symptoms are experienced.
