======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:SKIN: WASH W/SOAP/WATER. EYES: FLUSH W/PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT
LEAST 15 MINS, LIFTING UPPER & LOWER LIDS OCCASIONALLY. INGESTION:
DON'T INDUCE VOMITING. INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. GIVE OXYGEN
OR CPR IF NEEDED. DON'T GIVE STIMULANTS. EPINEPHRINE OR EPHEDRINE
MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE HEART W/FATAL RESULTS. OBTAIN MED ATTN.
ASPIRATION INTO LUNGS CAN CAUSE CHEMICAL PNEUMONITIS WHICH CAN BE
FATAL.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Flash Point:107F
Extinguishing Media:REGULAR FOAM, WATER FOG, CO2, & DRY CHEMICAL
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS W/FULL
FACEPIECE OPERATED IN PRESSURE-DEMAND OR OTHER POSITIVE PRESSURE
MODE.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:VAPORS ARE HEAVIER THAN AIR, TRAVEL ALONG
GROUND, MOVE BY VENTILATION & IGNITE BY IGNITION SOURCES AT
LOCATIONS DISTANT FROM HANDLING POINT.
Spill Release Procedures:SMALL: ABSORB LIQUID ON
PAPER/VERMICULITE/FLOOR ABSORBENT & TRANSFER TO HOOD. LARGE: SHUT
OF IGNITION SOURCE. STOP SPILL AT SOURCE. DIKE AREA. PUMP LIQUID TO
SALVAGE TANK. REMAINDER LIQUID TAKE UP W/A BSORBENT MATERIAL &
SHOVEL INTO CONTAINERS.
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:NEVER USE WELDING/CUTTING TORCH ON OR
NEAR DRUM (EVEN EMPTY) BECAUSE PRODUCT (EVEN JUST A RESIDUE) CAN
IGNITE EXPLOSIVELY.
Other Precautions:AVOID CONTACT W/SKIN.
Respiratory Protection:IF ABOVE TLV, USE A NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED AIR
SUPPLIED RESPIRATOR.
Ventilation:PROVIDE SUFFICIENT MECHANICAL/GENERAL/LOCAL EXHAUST
VENTILATION TO KEEP BELOW TLV.
Protective Gloves:POLYVINYL ALCOHOL OR NITRILE RUBBER
Eye Protection:CHEMICAL SPLASH GOGGLES/SAFETY GLASSES
Other Protective Equipment:IMPERVIOUS CLOTHING & BOOTS
Work Hygienic Practices:REMOVE/LAUNDER CONTAMINATED CLOTHING BEFORE
REUSE.
