===================== Hazards Identification =====================
LD50 LC50 Mixture:LD50(MOUSE):1743 MG/KG, INTRAPERITONEAL
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:YES
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:INHALATION: VAPORS, WHEN INHALED, ARE
SLIGHTLY IRRITATING TO LUNGS. BREATHING CONCENTRATIONS APPROACHING
10% IN AIR CAN CAUSE DIZZINESS, DIFFICULT BREATHING, DROWSINESS AND
POSSIBLY NARCOSIS. INGESTIO N: THIS WILL UPSET & IRRITATE THE
GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT. ESTIMATED TO HAVE MODERATE TOXICITY, IT IS
LIKELY TO SHOW
Effects of Overexposure:MOST OF THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS THOSE FOR
INHALATION. SKIN: EXCESSIVE CONTACT MAY CAUSE IRRITATION (DUE TO
DEFATTING ACTION) & POSSIBLE FROSTBITE (DUE TO REFRIGERATION EFFECT
OF EVAPORATION). EYES: LIQUI D CONTACT WILL IRRITATE. VAPORS ARE
ESTIMATED TO BE MILDLY IRRITATING.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:WORKERS WITH CARDIOVASCULAR OR
PULMONARY PROBLEMS SHOULD HAVE MEDICAL EVALUATION BEFORE EXPOSURE.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:INHALE: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. BREATHING STOPPED, GIVE CPR.
GIVE OXYGEN BY QUALIFIED PERSON. CALL DR. DO NOT GIVE ADRENALINE
(EPINEPHRINE). EYES: PROMPTLY FLUSH W/LG AMT WATER, LIFT EYELIDS
OCCAS-15 MIN . IF IRRIT PERSISTS, CALL DR. SKIN: PROMPTLY WASH
W/SOAP & WATER, THEN FLUSH W/WATER UNTIL ALL CHEMICAL IS REMOVED.
REMOVE CONTAM CLOTH & WASH BEFORE REUSE. INGEST: IF CONSCIOUS,
IMMED GIVE 2-4
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Flash Point:NA
Extinguishing Media:ANY STANDARD AGENT. SELECT THE ONE MOST SUITABLE
FOR TYPE OF FIRE. MATERIAL ITSELF IS NOT FLAMMABLE.
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR SELF-CONTAINED, NIOSH-APPROVED BREATHING
APPARATUS. USE WATER SPRAY TO COOL FIRE-EXPOSED CONTAINERS, TO KEEP
SPILLAGE FROM FIRE, AND TO KNOCK DOWN VAPORS.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:THOUGH NOT COMBUSTIBLE ITSELF, CONTACT W/
CERTAIN METALS PRODUCES RAPID EXOTHERMIC REACTIONS OR POTENTIALLY
EXPLOSIVE COMBINATIONS.
================== Accidental Release Measures ==================
Spill Release Procedures:EVACUATE UNPROTECTED PERSONNEL. PROTECTED
PERSONNEL, USE SCBA TO REMOVE ANY FLAMES, SHUT OFF LEAK, PROVIDE
VENT. THEN ABSORB LIQUID W/ABSORB & SHOVEL INTO METAL DRUMS &
CLOSE. LG SPILL: DIKE W/ INERT MAT'L OR ABSORB. PUMP INTO DRUMS.
KEEP FROM SEWER.
Neutralizing Agent:GLASSES WATER & INDUCE VOMIT BY TOUCHING FINGER TO
BACK OF THROAT. CALL DR.
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:AVOID BREATHING VAPOR, LIQUID CONTACT
W/EYE, SKIN, CLOTHING. TANK-CLEANING PERSONNEL: USE ONLY A FORMAL
TANK ENTRY PROCEDURE BASED ON SFTY PROCEDURES.
Other Precautions:STORE IN CLEAN, WELL-VENT AREA AWAY FROM HEAT/DIRECT
SUNLIGHT & OF LOW FIRE-RISK. PROTECT CNTNRS FROM PHYSICAL DAMAGE.
KEEP CLOSED. GIVE SPECIAL ATTN TO VENT OF LOW-LYING AREAS OR SMALL
ENCLOS WHERE M AT'L IS STORED/USED-AVOID ASPHYXIATION.
============= Exposure Controls/Personal Protection =============
Respiratory Protection:NONE REQUIRED FOR NORMALLY-VENTED WORK
SITUATIONS. FOR ACCIDENTAL OR NON-VENTILATED SITUATIONS, WHERE
CONCENTRATION OF VAPORS MAY BE HIGH, USE A SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING
APPARATUS OR SUPPLIED-AIR RESP IRATOR, NIOSH APPROVED.
Ventilation:ADEQUATE TO MEET TLV REQUIREMENTS & TO MINIMIZE EXPOS TO
VAPORS. LOC EXHST: AT FILLING ZONES WHERE LEAKAGE IS PROBABLE.
Protective Gloves:IMPERVIOUS GLOVES.
Eye Protection:CHEMICAL SAFETY GOGGLES.
Other Protective Equipment:IMPERVIUS CLOTHING (PREFERABLY MADE OF PVA
OR NEOPRENE). PROVIDE EYEWASH STATION & QUICK-DRENCH SHOWER
FACILITIES.
Supplemental Safety and Health
ANY RELEASE TO THE ENVIRONMENT MAY BE SUBJECT TO FEDERAL &/OR STATE
REPORTING REQUIREMENTS. CHECK WITH APPROPRIATE AGENCIES. CAN CAUSE
DEATH FROM INHALATION IF MISUSED OR NOT HANDLED PROPERLY. "EMPTY"
CYLINDERS MAY CONTAIN HAZARDOUS RESIDUES. DO NOT WEAR CONTACT
LENSES. ADD FACE SHIELD IF DANGER OF LIQUID SPLASHING.
