**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Highly flammable. Very toxic by inhalation and if swallowed. Causes
burns. May cause sensitization by skin contact.Light sensitive.Heat
sensitive.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Contact with liquid or vapor causes severe burns and possible
irreversible eye damage. Lachrymator (substance which increases the
flow of tears).
Skin:
Harmful if absorbed through the skin. May cause skin sensitization,
an allergic reaction, which becomes evident upon re-exposure to this
material. Causes severe skin irritation and possible burns.
Ingestion:
May be fatal if swallowed. May cause liver and kidney damage. May
cause burns to the digestive tract. May cause central nervous system
depression.
Inhalation:
May be fatal if inhaled. May cause effects similar to those
described for ingestion. May cause pulmonary edema and severe
respiratory disturbances. Causes severe respiratory tract
irritation.
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 immediately.
Skin:
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for
at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Get medical aid immediately. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
POISON material. If swallowed, get medical aid immediately. Only
induce vomiting if directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Inhalation:
POISON material. If inhaled, get medical aid immediately. Remove
victim to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration.
If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
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. Vapors may form an explosive mixture with air. Use
water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Extremely
flammable liquid and vapor. Fire or excessive heat may result in
violent rupture of the container due to bulk polymerization. Approach
fire from upwind to avoid hazardous vapors and toxic decomposition
products. 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:
Water may be ineffective. Use water spray, dry chemical, "alcohol
resistant" foam, or carbon dioxide.
**** 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. Clean up spills immediately,
observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Remove all
sources of ignition. Use a spark-proof tool. Isolate area and deny
entry. Provide ventilation. Approach spill from upwind. Use water
spray to cool and disperse vapors, protect personnel, and dilute
spills to form nonflammable mixtures. Control runoff and isolate
discharged material for proper disposal.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Ground and bond containers when transferring
material. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Empty
containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be
dangerous. Keep container tightly closed. Do not ingest or inhale. Do
not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose
empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames. Do not breathe
vapor. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Pure vapor will be
uninhibited and may polymerize in vents or other confined spaces.
Use only with adequate ventilation or respiratory protection.
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. Store in
explosion-proof refrigerator. Store protected from light.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Use process enclosure, local exhaust ventilation, or other
engineering controls to control airborne levels below recommended
exposure limits. 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.
