5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FIRE CLASSIFICATION:
OSHA Classification (29 CFR 1910.1200): Classified by OSHA as combustible.
NFPA RATINGS: Health: 2 Flammability: 2 Reactivity: 0
FLAMMABLE PROPERTIES:
Flashpoint: >40.5C掳C (>105.0 掳F)
Autoignition Temperature: 279.4掳C (>535.0 掳F)
Flammability (Explosive) Limits (% by volume in air): Lower: 1.0% NA Upper: 6.0%

PROTECTION OF FIRE FIGHTERS:
Fire Fighting Instructions: Wear NIOSH Approved SCBA and full protective equipment. Water may be ineffective in
fighting a petroleum fire unless used by experienced fire fighter.
Combustion Products: Highly dependent on combustion conditions. A complex mixture of airborne solids, liquids,
and gases including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and unidentified organic compounds will be evolved when this
material undergoes combustion.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE INFORMATION
Protective Measures: Eliminate all sources of ignition in vicinity of spilled material.
Spill Management: Stop the source of the release if you can do it without risk. Contain release to prevent further
contamination of soil, surface water or groundwater. Clean up spill as soon as possible, observing precautions in
Exposure Controls/Personal Protection. Use appropriate techniques such as applying non-combustible absorbent
materials or pumping. Where feasible and appropriate, remove contaminated soil. Place contaminated materials in
disposable containers and dispose of in a manner consistent with applicable regulations.
Reporting: Report spills to local authorities and/or the U.S. Coast Guard's National Response Center at (800) 424-
8802 as appropriate or required.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautionary Measures: DO NOT USE IN HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEMS in the vicinity of flames, sparks and hot
surfaces. Use only in well ventilated areas. Keep container closed. Keep out of the reach of children.
General Handling Information: Avoid contaminating soil or releasing this material into sewage and drainage systems
and bodies of water.
Static Hazard: Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition when handling this material. To
minimize this hazard, bonding and grounding may be necessary but may not, by themselves, be sufficient. Review all
operations which have the potential of generating an accumulation of electrostatic charge and/or a flammable
atmosphere (including tank and container filling, splash filling, tank cleaning, sampling, gauging, switch loading,
filtering, mixing, agitation, and vacuum truck operations) and use appropriate mitigating procedures. For more
information, refer to OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1910.106, 'Flammable and Combustible Liquids', National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA 77, 'Recommended Practice on Static Electricity', and/or the American Petroleum Institute (API)
Recommended Practice 2003, 'Protection Against Ignitions Arising Out of Static, Lightning, and Stray Currents'.
Container Warnings: Container is not designed to contain pressure. Do not use pressure to empty container or it may
rupture with explosive force. Empty containers retain product residue (solid, liquid, and/or vapor) and can be
dangerous. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose such containers to heat, flame, sparks,
static electricity, or other sources of ignition. They may explode and cause injury or death. Empty containers should be
completely drained, properly closed, and promptly returned to a drum reconditioner or disposed of properly
8. EXPOSURE CONTROL/PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS:
Consider the potential hazards of this material, applicable exposure limits, job activities, and other substances in the
work place when designing engineering controls and selecting personal protective equipment. If engineering controls
or work practices are not adequate to prevent exposure to harmful levels of this material, the personal protective
equipment listed below is recommended. The user should read and understand all instructions and limitations supplied
with the equipment since protection is usually provided for a limited time or under certain circumstances.
REV DATE: 4/10/2008 PAGE 2 OF 5
MSDS: FUEL ADDITIVE 鈥? OCTANE BOOSTER (ON-ROAD)
ENGINEERING CONTROLS:
Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels below the
recommended exposure limits.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Eye/Face Protection: Wear protective equipment to prevent eye contact. Selection of protective equipment may
include safety glasses, chemical goggles, face shields, or a combination depending on the work operations conducted.
Skin Protection: Wear protective clothing to prevent skin contact. Selection of protective clothing may include gloves,
apron, boots, and complete facial protection depending on operations conducted. Suggested materials for protective
gloves include: Silver Shield, Viton.
Respiratory Protection: Determine if airborne concentrations are below the recommended occupational exposure
limits for jurisdiction of use. If airborne concentrations are above the acceptable limits, wear an approved respirator that
provides adequate protection from this material, such as: Air-Purifying Respirator for Organic Vapors.
Use a positive pressure air-supplying respirator in circumstances where air-purifying respirators may not provide
adequate protection.

10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
Chemical Stability: MMT is extremely photosensitive and decomposes rapidly when exposed to light. Photolytic
action converts the organic compound to a mixture of non-hazardous manganese oxides, carbonates and organics
derived from methylcyclopentadiene. These decomposition products are less toxic than the neat MMT.
Incompatibility With Other Materials: May react with strong oxidizing agents, such as chlorates, nitrates, peroxides.
Hazardous Polymerization: Hazardous polymerization will not occur.
11. TOXILOGICAL INFORMATION
Routes of Entry : Skin, Eyes, Inhalation and Ingestion.
Target Organs: May cause damage to the following organs: blood, kidneys, lungs, liver, heart, brain, gastrointestinal
tract, upper respiratory tract, skin, eyes, central nervous system (CNS), testes.
Acute Effects:
Skin Contact: May cause irritation, drying of skin.
Inhalation: Irritating to respiratory system.
Ingestion: Toxic if swallowed. Aspiration hazard if swallowed- can enter lungs and cause damage.
Eye Contact: Irritating to eyes.

Chronic Effects:
Adverse Effects: petroleum distillates: Adverse symptoms may include: In the presence of slight maternal
toxicity, fetotoxic effects have been observed in the offspring of rats exposed by inhalation to Solvent Naphtha
(petroleum) light aromatic. Trimethylbenzenes: Adverse symptoms may include: This product contains
trimethylbenzene. Literature data indicate that long-term inhalation exposure causes blood effects in laboratory
animals. Xylene: Adverse symptoms may include: Central nervous system, liver, kidneys, and blood effects by
inhalation and heart beat irregularity (arrythmia) and heart beat - increase. High exposures to xylene in some
animal studies, often at levels toxic to the mother, affected embryo/fetal development. The significance of this
finding to humans is not known. Trimethylbenzenes: Adverse symptoms may include: This product contains
trimethylbenzene. Literature data indicate that long-term inhalation exposure causes blood effects in laboratory
animals. Methyl cyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl: Adverse symptoms may include: This product
contains MMT. A 90 day chronic inhalation study of MMT indicated that 3 mg/m3 of MMT showed detectable
effects in mice. The lungs appear to be the organ most sensitive to MMT both acutely and chronically.
Carcinogenic Effects: Not classified or listed by IARC, NTP, OSHA, EU and ACGIH.

12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
ECOTOXICITY
Methylcyclopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl (MMT) is toxic to aquatic organisms. May cause long-term adverse
effects in the aquatic environment. Based on calculation.
ENVIRONMENTAL FATE
MMT is extremely photosensitive and decomposes rapidly when exposed to light. Photolytic action converts the
organic compound to a mixture of non-hazardous manganese oxides, carbonates and organics derived from
methylcyclopentadiene. These decomposition products are less toxic than the neat MMT.
