**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Highly flammable. Toxic by inhalation, in contact with skin and if
swallowed. Causes burns. Harmful : danger of serious damage to health
by prolonged exposure through inhalation and if swallowed. Toxic :
danger of very serious irreversible effects through inhalation, in
contact with skin and if swallowed.Corrosive.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye burns. May cause painful sensitization to light. May
cause blindness.
Skin:
Causes skin burns. May be absorbed through the skin in harmful
amounts. Prolonged and/or repeated contact may cause defatting of the
skin and dermatitis. May cause skin rash (in milder cases), and cold
and clammy skin with cyanosis or pale color.
Ingestion:
May be fatal or cause blindness if swallowed. May cause severe and
permanent damage to the digestive tract. Causes gastrointestinal
tract burns. May cause systemic toxicity with acidosis. May cause
central nervous system depression, characterized by excitement,
followed by headache, dizziness, drowsiness, and nausea. Advanced
stages may cause collapse, unconsciousness, coma and possible death
due to respiratory failure. May cause perforation of the digestive
tract. May cause cardiopulmonary system effects.
Inhalation:
Harmful if inhaled. Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract.
May cause adverse central nervous system effects including headache,
convulsions, and possible death. May cause visual impairment and
possible permanent blindness. Aspiration may lead to pulmonary
edema. May cause systemic effects. Inhalation of large amounts may
cause respiratory stimulation, followed by respiratory depression,
convulsions and possible death due to respiratory paralysis.
Chronic:
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis. Chronic
inhalation and ingestion may cause effects similar to those of acute
inhalation and ingestion. Effects may be delayed. Chronic exposure
may cause reproductive disorders and teratogenic effects. Laboratory
experiments have resulted in mutagenic effects. Prolonged exposure
may cause liver, kidney, and heart damage.
**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****
Eyes:
Get medical aid immediately. Do NOT allow victim to rub eyes or keep
eyes closed. Extensive irrigation with water is required (at least 30
minutes).
Skin:
Get medical aid immediately. Immediately flush skin with plenty of
water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing
and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Destroy contaminated shoes.
Ingestion:
Call a poison control center. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting
unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid.
Inhalation:
Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh
air immediately. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Do NOT use
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing has ceased apply
artificial respiration using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device
such as a bag and a mask.
Notes to Physician:
Ethanol may inhibit methanol metabolism. Effects may be delayed.
Antidote:
Ethanol may inhibit methanol metabolism.
**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES ****
General Information:
Containers can build up pressure if exposed to heat and/or fire. 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. Flammable Liquid. Can release
vapors that form explosive mixtures at temperatures above the
flashpoint. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool.
Water may be ineffective. Material is lighter than water and a fire
may be spread by the use of water. Vapors may be heavier than air.
They can spread along the ground and collect in low or confined
areas. May be ignited by heat, sparks, and flame.
Extinguishing Media:
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or
alcohol-resistant foam. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed
containers. Water may be ineffective. For large fires, use water
spray, fog or alcohol-resistant foam. Do NOT use straight streams of
water.
**** 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. Scoop up with a nonsparking tool, then place into
a suitable container for disposal. 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.
Provide ventilation. A vapor suppressing foam may be used to reduce
vapors. Water spray may reduce vapor but may not prevent ignition in
closed spaces.
**** 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 breathe dust, vapor, mist, or gas. 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. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Do not ingest
or inhale. 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 sources of ignition. Keep container closed when not
in use. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from
incompatible substances. Flammables-area. Do not store in aluminum
or lead containers.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment. Facilities storing or
utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility
and a safety shower. Use only under a chemical fume hood.
