**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Highly flammable. Reacts violently with water liberating extremely
flammable gases. Spontaneously flammable in air. Causes severe burns.
Harmful by inhalation. Possible risk of harm to the unborn child.
Vapours may cause drowsiness and dizziness.Moisture sensitive.Light
sensitive.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes severe eye burns.
Skin:
Causes severe burns.
Ingestion:
Causes gastrointestinal tract burns. Ingestion causes severe burns
of the mouth and stomach.
Inhalation:
Harmful if inhaled. Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract.
Chronic:
Not available.
**** 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. 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:
Treat symptomatically and supportively.
**** 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. Material can spontaneously ignite (pyrophoric) when
exposed to air at normal or slightly elevated temperatures. Will burn
if involved in a fire. Water Reactive. Material will react with water
and may release a flammable and/or toxic gas. Flammable liquid and
vapor.
Extinguishing Media:
Use dry chemical to fight fire. DO NOT USE WATER! The use of CO2 may
be ineffective on larger fires due to a lack of cooling capacity
which may result in reignition.
**** 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.
Use a spark-proof tool.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Use spark-proof tools and explosion proof equipment. Do not breathe
dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on
clothing. Use only in a chemical fume hood.
Storage:
Keep away from sources of ignition. Store in a cool, dry place. Do
not store in direct sunlight. Store in a tightly closed container.
Flammables-area. Corrosives area. Water free area. Store under
nitrogen.
**** 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 explosion-proof ventilation to keep airborne levels to
acceptable levels.
