**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Harmful by inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed. Danger
of cumulative effects.

Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation and possible burns.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. May be absorbed through the skin.
Ingestion:
Harmful if swallowed. May cause irritation of the digestive tract.
Inhalation:
Causes respiratory tract irritation.
Chronic:
Absorption into the body leads to the formation of methemoglobin
which in sufficient concentrations causes cyanosis (bluish
discoloration of skin due to deficient oxygenation of the blood).
Kidney, lung and central nervous system effects may also occur.
Chronic ingestion or inhalation may cause headache, drowsiness, blue
color in the lips, ear, and fingernails.

**** 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.
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. Get medical aid immediately.
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:
Effects may be delayed. Absorption of this product into the body may
cause cyanosis (bluish discoloration of skin due to deficient
oxygenation of the blood). Moderate degrees of cyanosis need to be
treated only by supportive measures: bed rest and oxygen inhalation.
For methemoglobinemia, administer oxygen alone or with Methylene Blue
depending on the methemoglobin concentration in the blood. Ingestion
of large quantities of this material can depress the central nervous
system. Stimulants may be useful in certain situations; however, a
professional decision is required.

**** 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.
Extinguishing Media:
Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Do NOT get water
inside containers. Use water fog, dry chemical, carbon dioxide or
alcohol type foam.

**** 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. Sweep up, then place into a suitable container for
disposal. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Provide ventilation. Do
not get water inside containers. Stop leak only if you can do so
without risk.

**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****

Handling:
Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Use only in a
well-ventilated area. Minimize dust generation and accumulation.
Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly
closed. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Do not ingest or
inhale.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Store in a tightly closed
container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from
incompatible substances.

**** 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
ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low.
Exposure Limits
CAS# 88-75-5:


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.
Skin:
Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin
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.

**** SECTION 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION ****

RTECS#:
CAS# 88-75-5: SM2100000
LD50/LC50:
CAS# 88-75-5: Oral, mouse: LD50 = 1297 mg/kg; Oral, rat: LD50 = 334
mg/kg; Skin, rabbit: LD50 = >7940 mg/kg.
Carcinogenicity:
2-Nitrophenol -
Not listed by ACGIH, IARC, or NTP.
Other:
See actual entry in RTECS for complete information.

**** SECTION 12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION ****

Ecotoxicity:
Fish: Bluegill/Sunfish: 46.3-67 mg/L; 24-48 Hr; TLmDaphnia: Shrimp:
210,000 ug/L; 24 Hr; LC50Estimated BCF value = 14. This value
suggests that there is little tendency for 2-Nitrophenol to
bioconcentrate in fish.
