===================== Hazards Identification =====================
LD50 LC50 Mixture:ORAL LD50 (RATS): 2.1 - 4.6 G/KG
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACCIDENTAL EXPOSURE HAS BEEN REPORTED
TO CAUSE DEPRESSION OF THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM, GASTROINTESTINAL
DISTURBANCES. PROLONGED OR REPEATED SKIN CONTACT MAY CAUSE DRYING
OF THE SKIN AND DERMATITIS. VAPOR AND LIQUID ARE MODERATELY
IRRITATING TO EYES. VAPORS MAY CAUSE IRRITATION TO RESPIRATORY
TRACT.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:THIS COMPOUND CONTAINS NO INGREDIENTS AT
CONCENTRATIONS OF 0.1% OR GREATER THAT ARE CARCINOGENS OR SUSPECT
CARCINOGENS.
Effects of Overexposure:ABDOMINAL PAIN, HEADACHE, DIZZINESS, WEAKNESS,
NAUSEA, VOMITING, LOSS OF COORDINATION, UNCONSCIOUSNESS, DRYING OF
SKIN, DERMAITIS, EYE IRRITATION, RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITAZTION,
LIGHTHEADEDNESS, STUPO R.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:SIGNIFICANT EXPOSURE TO THIS
CHEMICAL MAY ADVERSELY EFFECT PEOPLE WITH CHRONIC DISEASE OF THE
CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
Eyes: FLUSH WITH WATER FOR 15 MINUTES WHILE HOLDING EYELIDS
OPEN. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. SKIN: REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING.
WASH WITH SOAP AND WATER. IF IRRITATION PERSIST, GET MEDICAL
ATTENTION. INH ALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. RESTORE BREATHING. GET
MEDICAL ATTENTION. INGESTION: DRINK LARGE QUANTITIES OF WATER. DO
NOT INDUCE VOMITING. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Flash Point Method:SCC
Flash Point:60.0F,15.6C
Autoignition Temp:Autoignition Temp Text:840F
Lower Limits:1.20 %
Upper Limits:8.00 %
Extinguishing Media:FOAM, CARBON DIOXIDE, DRY CHEMICAL
Fire Fighting Procedures:FIRE FIGHTERS SHOULD WEAR SELF CONTAINED
BREATHING APPARATUS AND FULL PROTECTIVE GEAR. COOL TANKS AND
CONTAINERS EXPOSED TO FIRE WITH WATER.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:OXIDIZING CHEMICALS MAY ACCELERATE THE
BURNING RATE IN A FIRE SITUATION.
================== Accidental Release Measures ==================
Spill Release Procedures:ELIMINATE IGNITION SOURCES. USE APPROPRIATE
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. CONTAIN SPILL WITH DIKES OF SOIL OR
NONCOMBUSTIBLE ABSORBENT TO MINIMIZE CONTAMINATED AREA. AVOID
RUNOFF INTO STORM SEWERS AN D DITCHES LEADING TO WATERWAYS.
Neutralizing Agent:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:KEEP ALL CONTAINERS TIGHTLY CLOSED
WHEN NOT IN USE. SSTORE OUT OF DIRECT SUNLIGHT AND ON AN
IMPERMEABLE FLOOR. DO NOT STORE WITH INCOMPATIBLES.
Other Precautions:ALWAYS OPEN CONTAINERS SLOWLY TO ALLOW ANY EXCESS
PRESSURE TO VENT. AVOID BREATHING VAPOR. AVOID CONTACT WITH EYES,
SKIN OR CLOTHING. DECONTAMINATE SOILED CLOTHING THOROUGHLY BEFORE
REUSE. DESTROY CON TAMINATED LEATHER CLOTHING.
============= Exposure Controls/Personal Protection =============
Respiratory Protection:IF EXPOSURE MAY OR DOES EXCEED OCCUPATION
EXPOSURE LIMITS USE A NIOSH-APPROVED RESPIRATOR TO PREVENT
OVEREXPOSURE. IN ACCORD WITH 29 CFR 1910.134 USE EITHER AN
ATMOSPHERE-SUPPLYING RESPIRATOR OR AN AI R-PURIFYING RESPIRATOR.
Ventilation:EXHAUST VENTILATION SUFFICIENT TO KEEP AIRBORNE
CONCENTRATIONS BELOW RESPECTIVE TLV'S.
Protective Gloves:NITRILE RUBBER
Eye Protection:CHEMICAL GOGGLES
Other Protective Equipment:CHEMICAL RESISTANT CLOTHING AS NECESSARY TO
PREVENT SKIN CONTACT. AN EMERGENCY EYEWASH AND SHOWER SHOULD BE
AVAILABLE.
Work Hygienic Practices:WASH HANDS THOROUGHLY WITH SOAP AND WATER
BEFORE EATING, DRINKING, SMOKING OR USING TOILET FACILITIES.
Supplemental Safety and Health
VAPOR IS HEAVIER THAN AIR AND CAN TRAVEL CONSIDERABLE DISTANCE TO A
SOURCE OF IGNITION AND FLASH BACK. MATERIAL CREATES A SPECIAL
HAZARD BECAUSE IT FLOATS ON WATER. THIS PRODUCT MAY GENERATE A
STATIC CHARGE. GROUND/BOND EQUIPMENT WHEN TRANSFERRING MATERIAL TO
PREVENT STATIC ACCUMULATION.
