**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Highly flammable. May form explosive peroxides. Harmful by
inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed.The toxicological
properties of this material have not been fully investigated.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation. Vapors cause eye irritation.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. May be harmful if absorbed through the skin.
The toxicological properties of this material have not been fully
investigated.
Ingestion:
May cause irritation of the digestive tract. The toxicological
properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. May be
harmful if swallowed.
Inhalation:
Causes respiratory tract irritation. The toxicological properties of
this substance have not been fully investigated. May be harmful if
inhaled.
Chronic:
No information found.
**** 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.
Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid. 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:
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 can travel to a source of ignition and flash
back. Will burn if involved in a fire. Containers may explode in the
heat of a fire. Flammable liquid and vapor. May form explosive
peroxides. Forms explosive mixtures with air.
Extinguishing Media:
Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or chemical foam.
**** 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. Remove all sources of ignition.
Use a spark-proof tool. Provide ventilation.
**** 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. Do not breathe vapor. Use only with
adequate ventilation. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame.
Storage:
Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
Flammables-area. Storage under a nitrogen blanket has been
recommended.
**** 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# 505-22-6:
Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes:
Wear chemical splash goggles.
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.
