**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Highly flammable. Irritating to skin. Very toxic to aquatic
organisms; may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic
environment. Harmful: may cause lung damage if swallowed. Vapors may
cause drowsiness and dizziness.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause eye irritation. Causes redness and pain.
Skin:
May cause skin irritation. Prolonged and/or repeated contact may
cause defatting of the skin and dermatitis.
Ingestion:
May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea. Aspiration of material into the lungs may cause chemical
pneumonitis, which may be fatal. May cause central nervous system
depression.
Inhalation:
May cause irritation of the respiratory tract with burning pain in
the nose and throat, coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and
pulmonary edema. May cause narcotic effects in high concentration.
Aspiration may lead to pulmonary edema.
Chronic:
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause defatting and
dermatitis. May cause transient kidney disturbances
**** 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:
Potential for aspiration if swallowed. Get medical aid immediately.
Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical
personnel. 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:
**** 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. Liquid will float and may reignite on the surface
of water. Extremely flammable liquid and vapor. Vapor may cause flash
fire. 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:
Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers. 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 small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water
spray or regular foam. For large fires, use water spray, fog or
regular 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. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and
ditches which lead to waterways. Remove all sources of ignition. Use
a spark-proof tool. Provide ventilation. A vapor suppressing foam
may be used to reduce vapors.
**** 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. Empty containers retain product residue,
(liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Take precautionary
measures against static discharges. Keep container tightly closed.
Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose
empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames. Use only with
adequate ventilation. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Avoid
breathing vapor or mist.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of
ignition. Store in a tightly closed container. Keep from contact
with oxidizing materials. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area
away from incompatible substances. Refrigerator/flammables.
**** 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. Ventilation fans and
other electrical service must be non-sparking and have an
explosion-proof design.
Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes:
Wear chemical goggles.
Skin:
Wear appropriate 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.
