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

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Highly flammable. Toxic by inhalation, in contact with skin and if
swallowed. Irritating to skin. May cause cancer.

Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes severe eye irritation. May result in corneal injury.
Lachrymator (substance which increases the flow of tears). Causes
redness and pain.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. May cause skin sensitization, an allergic
reaction, which becomes evident upon re-exposure to this material.
Prolonged and/or repeated contact may cause defatting of the skin and
dermatitis. May be harmful if absorbed through the skin.
Ingestion:
Symptoms may include: headache, excitement, fatigue, nausea,
vomiting, stupor, and coma. Causes gastrointestinal irritation with
nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May be harmful if swallowed.
Inhalation:
Inhalation of high concentrations may cause central nervous system
effects characterized by nausea, headache, dizziness, unconsciousness
and coma. May cause cyanosis (bluish discoloration of skin due to
deficient oxygenation of the blood). May cause irritation of the
respiratory tract with burning pain in the nose and throat,
coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and pulmonary edema. May be
harmful if inhaled. Exposure to high concentrations may cause
weakness, asphyxia, and death.
Chronic:
May cause cancer in humans. Prolonged skin contact results in
systemic toxicity and ulceration after a latency period of several
hours with the affected skin resembling a second degree thermal burn.

**** 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. Destroy contaminated shoes.
Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4
cupfuls of milk or water. Get medical aid immediately. Wash mouth out
with water.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not
breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Get medical aid. 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:
Antidote:
Always have a cyanide antidote kit on hand when working with cyanide
compounds. Get medical advice to use.

**** 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. Dusts at sufficient concentrations can form
explosive mixtures with air. 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. Containers may
explode in the heat of a fire. May polymerize explosively when
involved in a fire.
Extinguishing Media:
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or
alcohol-resistant foam. For large fires, use water spray, fog or
alcohol-resistant foam. Do NOT use straight streams of water. 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:
Vacuum or sweep up material and place into a suitable disposal
container. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the
Protective Equipment section. Remove all sources of ignition.
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. Minimize dust
generation and accumulation. Use spark-proof tools and explosion
proof equipment. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Empty
containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be
dangerous. Do not ingest or inhale. Do not pressurize, cut, weld,
braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat,
sparks or open flames.
Storage:
Keep away from heat 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.
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. See 29CFR
1910.1045 for regulations applying to all occupational exposures to
acrylonitrile.
Exposure Limits
CAS# 9003-54-7:


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:
Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29
CFR 1910.134 or European Standard EN 149. Use a
NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 149 approved
respirator if exposure limits are exceeded or if
irritation or other symptoms are experienced.
