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

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Flammable. Toxic by inhalation, in contact with skin and if
swallowed.Toxic.Lachrymator (substance which increases the flow of
tears).Moisture sensitive.

Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes severe eye irritation. Lachrymator (substance which
increases the flow of tears).
Skin:
Causes severe skin irritation. Harmful if absorbed through the skin.
Ingestion:
Harmful if swallowed. Causes severe digestive tract burns with
abdominal pain, vomiting, and possible death.
Inhalation:
Harmful if inhaled. Causes severe respiratory tract irritation.
Inhalation of high concentrations may cause pulmonary edema.
Chronic:
Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause nausea, dizziness, and
headache. Repeated contact may result in skin burns. Prolonged
contact may cause severe eye irritation or burns. Prolonged or
repeated exposure may cause lung irritation, chest pain, and
pulmonary edema.

**** 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
immediately. Do NOT allow victim to rub eyes or keep eyes closed.

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. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases
may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Vapors may
be heavier than air. They can spread along the ground and collect
in low or confined areas.
Extinguishing Media:
Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Do NOT get water
inside containers.

**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****

General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective
Equipment section. Provide ventilation. Do not get water inside
containers.

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

Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid
ingestion and inhalation. Do not allow contact with water. Keep from
contact with moist air and steam.
Storage:
Keep container closed when not in use. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
Flammables-area. Store protected from moisture.

**** 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.
Exposure Limits
CAS# 590-42-1:
