**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Contact with water liberates toxic, extremely flammable
gas.Water-reactive.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause eye irritation.
Skin:
May cause skin irritation.
Ingestion:
May cause digestive tract disturbances.
Inhalation:
May cause irritation of the mucous membranes.
Chronic:
Not available.
**** 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.
Skin:
Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Remove
contaminated clothing and shoes.

Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. 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. Water Reactive. Material will react with water and
may release a flammable and/or toxic gas. Contact with moisture or
water may generate sufficient heat to ignite nearby combustible
materials. Contact with acid or acid fumes evolves heat and flammable
vapors. May re-ignite after fire is extinguished. May be ignited by
heat, sparks, and flame.
Extinguishing Media:
DO NOT USE WATER OR FOAM. For small fires, use dry chemical, soda
ash, lime or sand. For large fires, use dry sand, dry chemical, soda
ash or lime or withdraw from area and let fire burn. Contact with
water or steam may produce toxic and flammable vapors.
**** 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. Provide ventilation. Do not get water on spilled
substances or inside containers. Cover with dry earth, dry sand, or
other non-combustible material followed with plastic sheet to
minimize spreading and contact with water. DO NOT CLEAN-UP OR DISPOSE
OF, EXCEPT UNDER SUPERVISION OF A SPECIALIST.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Do not allow water to get into the container
because of violent reaction. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and
clothing. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use with adequate
ventilation.
Storage:
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible
substances. Water free area. Keep away from acids.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Use adequate ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low.
Exposure Limits
CAS# 615-22-5:
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.

Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin
exposure.
Clothing:
Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin
exposure.

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.
