**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Highly flammable. Toxic by inhalation and if swallowed. Causes
burns. Possible risk of harm to the unborn child. Vapours may cause
drowsiness and dizziness.Corrosive.Flammable liquid.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye burns.
Skin:
Causes skin burns.
Ingestion:
May be fatal or cause blindness if swallowed. Poison by ingestion.
Causes gastrointestinal tract burns. May cause liver and kidney
damage. May cause cardiac disturbances. Aspiration of material into
the lungs may cause chemical pneumonitis, which may be fatal.
Inhalation:
Harmful if inhaled. Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract.
Chronic:
Chronic inhalation and ingestion may cause effects similar to those
of acute inhalation and ingestion.
**** 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:
Get medical aid immediately. Immediately flush skin with plenty of
water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing
and shoes.
Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4
cupfuls of milk or water. Get medical aid immediately.
Inhalation:
Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh
air immediately. 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 can travel to a source of ignition and flash
back. Will burn if involved in a fire.
Extinguishing Media:
Use water spray, dry chemical, 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. Remove all sources of ignition.
Provide ventilation.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Use with adequate ventilation. Use spark-proof tools and explosion
proof equipment. Do not get on skin and clothing. Do not breathe
dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Use only in a chemical fume hood. Keep
away from heat, sparks and flame.
Storage:
Keep away from sources of ignition. Store in a cool, dry place.
Store in a tightly closed container. Flammables-area.
**** 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.
