CHEMICAL BURN. EYES-CAN CAUSE CHEMICAL BURN-DAMAGE IRREVERSIBLE.
VAPORS ARE SEVERELY IRRITATING. INHALATION-CAUSES SEVERE IRRITATION
OF NASAL PASSAGE, THROAT AND LUN GS. CAN CAUSE PULMONARY EDEMA
(ACCUMULATION OF FLUID IN THE LUNGS); SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS CAN BE
DELAYED FOR SEVERAL HOURS. INGESTION-CAUSES SEVERE IRRITATION OF
AND DAMAGE TO MOUTH, THROAT, AND STOMACH . DEALYED/LONG TERM

EXPERIENCE).
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:CARCINOGENIC EFFECTS: NO EVIDENCE OF
CARCINOGENICITY (HUMAN EXPERIENCE). MUTAGENIC: NO EVIDENCE OF
MUTAGENICITY (HUMAN EXPERIENCE).
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:SIGNIFICANTEXPOSURE TO THIS
CHEMICAL MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT PEOPLE WITH CHRONIC DISEASE OF THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM, SKIN, EYES, AND/OR TEETH.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:SKIN: REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND WASH CONTAMINATED SKIN
WITH LARGE AMOUNTS OF SOAP AND WATER. IF IRRITATION PERSISTS,
CONTACT A PHYSICIAN. EYES: FLUSH EYES WITH WATER FOR AT LEAST 15
MINUTES. CO NTACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY. INHALATION: REMOVE
PATIENT FROM CONTAMINATED AREA. IF BREATHING HAS STOPPED, GIVE
ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION, THEN OXYGEN IF NEEDED. CONTACT A PHYSICIAN
IMMEDIATELY. INGEST ION: PATIENT SHOULD BE MADE TO DRINK LARGE
QUANTITIES OF WATER. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. CONTACT A PHYSICIAN
IMMEDIATELY.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Flash Point Method:CC
Flash Point:=42.8C, 109.F
Lower Limits:5.3
Upper Limits:16.6
Extinguishing Media:USE CARBON DIOXIDE OR DRY CHEMICAL FOR SMAL FIRES;
ALCOHOL TYPE AQUEOUS FILM-FORMING FOAM OR WATER SPRAY FOR LARGE
FIRES.
Fire Fighting Procedures:IF POTENTIAL FOR EXPOSURE TO VAPORS OR
PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION EXISTS, WEAR COMPLETE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING SELF CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS WITH FULL
FACE. PIECE OPERATED IN PRESSU RE DEMAND OR OTHER POSITIVE PRESSURE
MODE.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:WATER SPRAY CAN BE USED TO REDUCE
INTENSITY OF FLAMES & TO DILUTE SPILLS TO NONFLAMMABLE MIXTURE. USE
WATER SPRAY TO COOL FIRE EXPOSED STRUCTURES & VESSELS.
================== Accidental Release Measures ==================
Spill Release Procedures:ELIMINATE IGNITION SOURCES. AVOID EYE/SKIN
CONTACT. PLACE LEAKING CANS IN WELL VENTED AREA WITH WITH SPILL
CONTAMENT. IF FIRE POTENTIAL EXISTS, BLANKET SPILL WITH ALCOHOL
TYPE AQUEOUS FILM-FORMING FOA M/USE WATER SPRAY TO DISPERSE VAPORS.
CONTAIN SPILL TO FACILITATE CLEAN-UP. CLEAN-UP METHODS MAY INCLUDE
ABSORBENT MATERIAL, TRUCK, ETC. AVOID RUN-OFF INTO STORM
SEWERS/DITCHES LEADING TO WATER WAYS.
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:STORE-STORE IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA.
USE ONLY DOT-APPROVED CONTAINERS. DO NOT STORE WITH INCOMPATIBLE
MATERIALS. HANDLING-USE WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION. KEEP CONTAINER
CLOSED WHEN NOT IN USE. ALWAYS OPEN CONTAINERS SLOWLY TO ALLOW ANY
EXCESS PRESSURE TO VENT. AVOID BREATHING VAPORS.
Other Precautions:HANDLING-AVOID CONTACT WITH EYES, SKIN OR CLOTHING.
WHEN TRANSFERRING, FOLLOW PROPER GROUNDING PROCEDURES. KEEP AWAY
FROM HEAT AND FLAMES.
============= Exposure Controls/Personal Protection =============
Respiratory Protection:BASED ON WORKPLACE CONTAMINATE LEVEL AND WORKING
LIMITS OF THE RESPIRATOR, USE A RESPIRATOR APPROVED BY NIOSH/MSHA.
THE FOLLOWING IS THE MINIMUM RECOMMEDED EQUIPMENT FOR AN ACCEPTABLE
LEVEL OF EXPOSUR E. TO ESTIMATE AN ACCEPTABLE LEVEL OF EXPOSURE
Ventilation:GENERAL OR DILUTION VENTILATION IS FREQUENTLY INSUFFICIENT
AS THE SOLE MEANS OF CONTROL. LOCAL VENTILATION IS USUALLY
PREFERRED.
Protective Gloves:WEAR IMPERVIOUS GLOVES.
Eye Protection:WEAR CHEMICAL GOGGLES WHEN THERE IS A REASONABLE CHANCE
OF EYE CONTACT.
Other Protective Equipment:A SAFETY SHOWER AND EYE BATH SHOULD BE
READILY AVAILABLE.WEAR IMPERVIOUS CLOTHING & GLOVES TO PREVENT
REPEATED OR PROLONGED CONTACT. THE RECOMMENDED MATERIAL OF
CONSTRUCTION IS: NITRILE RUBBER.
Work Hygienic Practices:WASH THOOUGHLY WITH SOAP & WATER AFTER
HANDLING. DECONTAMINATE SOILED CLOTHING THOROUGHLY BEFORE REUSE.
DESTROY CONTAMINATED LEATHER CLOTHING.
