Section I: Product Identification
CATALOG NUMBER: 2200,4200,4202, 4203, 9080, 9580 PRODUCT NAME: Base Neutral Extractables
Section II - Hazardous Ingredients/Identity Information
Chemical Name CAS Reg. No. OSHA PEL (TWA) % Composition*
Acetone 67-64-1 750ppm >99%
A table of the compounds possible in this Base/Neutral
standard is attached. Data included in the table are
formulas, CAS numbers, oral ld50 values for rats and
PEL/TWA values if available. Total concentration of the
Base/neutral extractable compound in the standard is less
than .1 %.
Section III - Physical/Chemical Characteristics of Hazardous Ingredients
Acetone
BOILING POINT: 56 C (132 F) @ 760mm Hg SPECIFIC GRAVITY: 0.79 (water=1)
VAPOR PRESSURE: 181 (20 C) SOLUBILITY IN WATER: Complete APPEARANCE/ODOR: Clear, colorless liquid, sweet
odor (acetone).
Section IV - Fire and Explosion Hazard Data
FLASH POINT (Method used): -18 C (-2 F) AUTO IGNITION TEMPERATURE: 464 C (869 F) FLAMMABLE LIMITS LEL 2.5% UEL 13%
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Use alcohol foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide (water may be ineffective). Use extinguisher media appropriate for surrounding fire.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Firefighters should wear proper protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus with full face piece operated in
positive pressure mode. Move containers from fire area if it can be done without risk. Use water to keep fire-exposed containers cool.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Vapors may flow along surfaces to distant ignition sources and flash back. Closed containers exposed to heat may
explode. Contact with strong oxidizers may cause fire.
Section V - Reactivity Data
Unstable Stable Conditions to Avoid: Heat, flames. Other sources of ignition.
STABILITY:
INCOMPATIBILITY (Materials to avoid):
Strong oxidizing agents, strong bases, halogen acids and halogen compounds, caustics, amines and ammonia, chlorine and chlorine compounds, strong acids, esp.
sulfuric, nitric.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, toxic fumes of chlorine.
HAZARDOUS May Occur Will Not Occur Conditions to Avoid: NA
POLYMERIZATION:
Section VI - Health Hazard Data
ROUTES OF Inhalation? YES Skin? YES Ingestion? YES
ENTRY
HEALTH HAZARDS (Acute and Chronic): ACUTE: Irritation of the nose and throat. CHRONIC: Kidney damage, liver damage.
COMPONENTS LISTED AS CARCINOGENS OR POTENTIAL CARCINOGENS: Total of Base/Neutrals compounds are less than 1%. Some are on the IARC list.
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: Irritation of skin, eyes, nose and throat. Headache, dizziness, vomiting, nausea, central nervous system depression, low
blood pressure and respiratory failure. Prolonged contact may cause dermatitis.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Skin disorders, eye disorders, and chronic respiratory disease
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES: Seek medical assistance for treatment, observation and support if necessary. EYE CONTACT: Flush with water,
seek medical attention. SKIN CONTACT: Wash with soap and water, use protective creams. INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial
respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen, obtain medical assistance. INGESTION: Obtain medical assistance if swallowed. If conscious, give large amounts of
water and induce vomiting.

Section VII - Precautions for Safe Handling and Use
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Diluted standard can be absorbed with sand or other non-combustibles absorbent material
and placed into a container for later disposal. Sample solutions should be absorbed with charcoal or other organic absorbent and incinerated. Flush area with water.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Dispose in accordance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations.
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE: Keep container tightly closed. Store in a cool, dry, ventilated, flammable liquid storage area. Isolate
from incompatible materials..
OTHER PRECAUTIONS* Do not heat or evaporate analytical standards to dryness.
Section VIII - Control Measures
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION (Please specify): Respiratory protection is required if airborne concentrations exceed PEL (750 ppm). At concentrations up to 5000 ppm
a chemical cartridge respirator with organic vapor cartridge is recommended. Above this level, a self-contained breathing apparatus is recommended. (20,000 ppm is
immediately dangerous to life or health).
VENTILATION: Local exhaust
PROTECTIVE GLOVES: Butyl, neoprene, or latex rubber gloves are EYE PROTECTION: Safety glasses or goggles.
recommended.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: NA
EMERGENCY WASH FACILITIES: Maintain eye wash and quick drench showers in work area.
