Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:INHALATION OF VAPORS IRRITATE THE
RESPIRATORY TRACT. OVEREXPOSURE MAY CAUSE LIGHTHEADEDNESS, NAUSEA,
HEADACHE AND BLURRED VISION. GREATER EXPOSURE MAY CAUSE MUSCLE
WEAKNESS, NUMBNESS OF EXTREMITIES, U NCONSCIOUSNESS & DEATH.
INGESTION MAY PRODUCE ABDOMINAL PAIN, NAUSEA. ASPIRATION INTO THE
LUNGS CAN PRODUCE SEVERE LUNG DAMAGE & IS A MEDICAL EMERGENCY.
OTHER SYMPTOMS EXPECTED TO PARALLEL INHALATION. SKIN CONTACT MAY
CAUSE REDNESS, IRRITATION WITH DRYNESS, CRACKING,. MAY BE ABSORBED
THROUGH SKIN WITH POSSIBLE SYSTEMIC EFFECTS. VAPORS MAY CAUSE EYE
IRRITATION. SPLASHES MAY CAUSE REDNESS AND PAIN.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NONE STATED BY MANUFACTURER.
Effects of Overexposure:NHALATION OF VAPORS IRRITATE THE RESPIRATORY
TRACT. OVEREXPOSURE MAY CAUSE LIGHTHEADEDNESS, NAUSEA, HEADACHE AND
BLURRED VISION. GREATER EXPOSURE MAY CAUSE MUSCLE WEAKNESS,
NUMBNESS OF EXTREMETIES, UN CONSCIOUSNESS & DEATH. INGESTION MAY
PRODUCE ABDOMINAL PAIN, NAUSEA. ASPIRATION INTO THE LUNGS CAN
PRODUCE SEVERE LUNG DAMAGE & IS A MEDICAL EMERGENCY. OTHER SYMPTOMS
EXPCTED TO PARALLEL INHALATION. S KIN CONTACT MAY CAUSE REDNESS,
IRRITATION WITH DRYNESS, CRACKING,. MAY BE ABSORBED THROUGH SKIN
WITH POSSIBLE SYSTEMIC EFFECTS. VAPORS MAY CAUSE EYE IRRITATION.
SPLASHES MAY CAUSE REDNESS AND PAIN.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH PRE-EXISTING SKIN
DISORDERS OR EYE PROBLEMS OR IMPAIRED RESPIRATORY FUNCTION MAY BE
MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO THE EFFECTS OF THE SUBSTANCE. MAY AFFECT THE
DEVELOPING FETUS.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:INHALED-REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. KEEP PERSON CALM. GIVE
ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION IF NOT BREATHING. GIVE OXYGEN IF BREATHING
DIFFICULT. SKIN-FUSH AREA WITH SOAP & WATER FOR AT LEAST 15
MINUTES. GET MEDICAL A TTENTION. WASH CLOTHES BEFORE REUSE.
EYES-IMMEDIATELY FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15
MINUTES. CALL A PHYSICIAN. INGESTION IS NOT CONSIDERED A POTENTIAL
ROUTE OF EXPERIENCE. INGESTED-ASPIR ATION HAZARD. DO NOT INDUCE
VOMITING! IF VOMITING OCCURS, KEEP HEAD BELOW HIPS TO PREVENT
ASPIRATION. CALL A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Flash Point Method:CC
Flash Point:=-22.2C, -8.F
Autoignition Temp:=225.C, 437.F
Lower Limits:1.1
Upper Limits:7.5
Extinguishing Media:DRY CHEMICAL, FOAM OR CARBON DIOXIDE, WATER MAY BE
INEFFECTIVE. VAPORS CAN FLOW ALING SURGFACES TO DISTANT IGNITION
SOURCE AND FLASH BACK.
Fire Fighting Procedures:IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, WEAR FULL PROTECTIVE
CLOTHING AND NIOSH-APPROVED SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS WITH
FULL FACEPIECE OPERATED IN THE PRESSURE DEMAND OR OTHER POSITIVE
PRESSURE MODE. WATER S PRAY MAY BE USED TO KEEP FIRE EXPOSED
CONTAINER COOL. VAPOR EXPLOSION HAZARD EXISTS INDOORS, OUTDOORS, OR
IN SEWERS.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:ABOVE FLASH POINT,VAPOR-AIR MIXTURES ARE
EXPLOSIVE WITHIN FLAMMABLE LIMITS ABOVE.CONTACT WITH OXIDIZING
MATERIALS MAY CAUSE EXTREMELY VIOLENT COMBUSTION. EXPLODES WHEN
MIXED AT 28C WITH DINITROGEN TET RAOXIDE. SENSITIVE TO STATIC
DISCHARGE.VAPOR MAY CAUSE FLASH FIRE. DANGEROUS FIRE HAZARD WHEN
