**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Harmful if swallowed. Irritating to skin. Limited evidence of a
carcinogenic effect. Harmful : danger of serious damage to health by
prolonged exposure through inhalation and if swallowed.Cancer suspect
agent.Light sensitive.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause conjunctivitis. Causes redness and pain. Contact with
liquid causes immediate burning pain, tearing, and reddening of the
conjunctiva.
Skin:
Causes irritation with burning pain, itching, and redness.
Ingestion:
May cause central nervous system depression, kidney damage, and
liver damage. Causes gastrointestinal irritation with nausea,
vomiting and diarrhea. May cause cardiac disturbances. May cause
hallucinations and distorted perceptions.
Inhalation:
Inhalation of high concentrations may cause central nervous system
effects characterized by nausea, headache, dizziness, unconsciousness
and coma. Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause liver and
kidney damage. May cause cardiac sensitization and possible failure.
Inhalation of large amounts may cause respiratory stimulation,
followed by respiratory depression, convulsions and possible death
due to respiratory paralysis. May be absorbed through the lungs.
Causes irritation of the mucous membrane and upper respiratory
tract.
Chronic:
Possible cancer hazard based on tests with laboratory animals.
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis. May cause
reproductive and fetal effects. Effects may be delayed. Laboratory
experiments have resulted in mutagenic effects. Chronic exposure has
been associated with an increased incidence of kidney, liver,
rectal, bladder, colon, brain, and lymph node cancer. Toxicity may
be increased by exposure to alcohol, steroids, and ketones. Prolonged
exposure may cause liver, kidney, and heart damage.
**** 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. Do
NOT allow victim to rub eyes or keep eyes closed.
Skin:
Get medical aid. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4
cupfuls of milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person. Get medical aid. Wash mouth out with water.
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. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation.
Notes to Physician:
Causes cardiac sensitization to endogenous catelcholamines which may
lead to cardiac arrhythmias. Do NOT use adrenergic agents such as
epinephrine or pseudoepinephrine. Persons with liver, kidney, or
central nervous system diseases may be at increased risk from
exposure to this product. Alcoholic beverage consumption may enhance
the toxic effects of this substance. 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. 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. Use extinguishing media
appropriate to the surrounding fire. Substance is nonflammable.
Vapors may be heavier than air. They can spread along the ground and
collect in low or confined areas. Containers may explode when heated.
Extinguishing Media:
Do NOT get water inside containers. Do NOT use straight streams of
water. For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or water
spray. For large fires, use water spray, fog or regular foam. Cool
containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is
out.
**** 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. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and
ditches which lead to waterways. Clean up spills immediately,
observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Provide
ventilation.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Use only in a well-ventilated area. Avoid contact
with eyes, skin, and clothing. Do not breathe dust, vapor, mist, or
gas. Do not ingest or inhale. Store protected from light.
Storage:
Do not store in direct sunlight. Store in a tightly closed
container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from
incompatible substances. Do not store near alkaline substances.
Separate from strong mineral acids.
**** 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 exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below the
permissible exposure limits.
Exposure Limits
CAS# 865-49-6:

exposure.
Clothing:
Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin
exposure.
Respirators:
A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29
CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements or European
Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace
conditions warrant respirator use.
