**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Flammable. Very toxic by inhalation, in contact with skin and if
swallowed.Combustible liquid.Air sensitive.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause eye irritation and possible burns. May cause chemical
conjunctivitis and corneal damage.
Skin:
May be fatal if absorbed through the skin. Effects of contact may be
delayed. Causes skin irritation and possible burns. Substance is
readily absorbed through the skin. May cause cyanosis of the
extremities.
Ingestion:
May be fatal if swallowed. Causes gastrointestinal irritation with
nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause central nervous system
effects and/or neurological effects. Ingestion may cause retina and
optic nerve damage.
Inhalation:
May be fatal if inhaled. May cause effects similar to those
described for ingestion. Aspiration may lead to pulmonary edema.
Inhalation at high concentrations may cause CNS depression and
asphixiation. Causes irritation of the mucous membrane and upper
respiratory tract.
Chronic:
Chronic ingestion may cause liver damage. Effects may be delayed.
**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****
Eyes:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid
immediately.
Skin:
Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes
while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. SPEEDY ACTION IS
CRITICAL, GET MEDICAL AID IMMEDIATELY.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical
aid immediately. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert,
rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
Inhalation:
Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh
air immediately. Do not use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation if victim
ingested or inhaled the substance; induce artificial respiration with
the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other
proper respiratory medical device.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively. Effects may be delayed.
**** 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. Water runoff can cause environmental damage. Dike
and collect water used to fight fire. 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.
Combustible liquid. Vapors may be heavier than air. They can spread
along the ground and collect in low or confined areas. Containers
may explode when heated. May explode when heated.
Extinguishing Media:
In case of fire, use water, dry chemical, chemical foam, or
alcohol-resistant foam. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed
containers. For large fires, use water spray, fog or regular foam.
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or
regular foam.
**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Avoid runoff into storm sewers and ditches which lead to waterways.
Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective
Equipment section. Use water spray to disperse the gas/vapor. Remove
all sources of ignition. Absorb spill using an absorbent,
non-combustible material such as earth, sand, or vermiculite. Do not
use combustible materials such as sawdust. Use a spark-proof tool.
Provide ventilation. Place under an inert atmosphere.
**** 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 get in
eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Empty containers retain product
residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Keep away from
heat, sparks and flame. Do not ingest or inhale. Handle under an
inert atmosphere. Store protected from air. Use only in a chemical
fume hood. Discard contaminated shoes. Do not pressurize, cut, weld,
braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat,
sparks or open flames.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of
ignition. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Poison room
locked. Do not expose to air. Store under an inert atmosphere.
**** 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.
