Section III - Physical/Chemical Characteristics
BOILING POINT: 65 C SPECIFIC GRAVITY: .791 @ 20 C
VAPOR PRESSURE: 97 mm Hg @ 20 C SOLUBILITY IN WATER: Miscible APPEARANCE/ODOR: Colorless/alcohol odor
Section IV - Fire and Explosion Hazard Data
FLASH POINT (Method used): 12 C (CC) AUTO IGNITION TEMPERATURE: 385 C FLAMMABLE LIMITS LEL 6.0% UEL 36.5%
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Dry chemical, CO2, alcohol foam, water mist or fog.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: In case of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing. Heat may build pressure and rupture
closed storage containers. Keep fire-exposed containers cool with water spray. May burn with an invisible flame. Mixtures with water as low as 21% by volume are still
flammable. Under some circumstances can corrode certain metals, including aluminum and zinc, and generate hydrogen gas.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: N/A
Section V - Reactivity Data
Unstable Stable Conditions to Avoid: Heat, sparks, and contact with ignition source.
STABILITY:
INCOMPATIBILITY (Materials to avoid):
Strong oxidizing agents and reactive metals which will displace hydrogen.

Section VI - Health Hazard Data
ROUTES OF Inhalation? YES Skin? YES Ingestion? YES
ENTRY
HEALTH HAZARDS (Acute and Chronic): INHALATION: Exposure can cause drowsiness and intoxication, headache, visual disturbance leading to blindness, coughing
and shortness of breath, collapse and death at high concentrations. EYE CONTACT: Liquid can cause moderate burning, watering, swelling, and redness. SKIN
CONTACT: Extensive, repeated and/or prolonged skin contact can cause burning, itching, redness, or blisters. INGESTION: Causes burning of the GI tract and toxic
effects. Swallowing >2 oz. methanol can cause death.
COMPONENTS LISTED AS CARCINOGENS OR POTENTIAL CARCINOGENS: N/A
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: Mild poisoning is characterized by fatigue, nausea, headache, and delayed visual burning. Moderate intoxication results in
severe depression. Temporary or permanent blindness may follow in 2-6 days. In severe poisoning, symptoms progress to rapid, shallow respiration, cyanosis, coma,
hypotension, dilated pupils, and visual disturbance. Death may result from respiratory failure.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Dermatitis, diseases of eyes, liver, kidneys, lungs and cardiovascular system.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES: EYES: Remove contact lenses if present. Hold eyelids open and irrigate with large volumes of water for 15 min. Seek
medical treatment. SKIN: Immediately wash with soap and water. Continue rinsing with large volumes of water for 15 min. Remove contaminated clothing. Seek
medical treatment. INHALATION: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. Have a trained person administer oxygen and CPR if needed. Contact a physician immediately.
INGESTION: Ingestion may cause blindness. Contact Poison Control Center for assistance. Contact a physician immediately. Never give anything by mouth to a
victim unconscious or having convulsions.
Section VII - Precautions for Safe Handling and Use
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Wear personal protective equipment. Protect from ignition. Absorb small spills on paper,
vermiculite, or other absorbent. Collect and store in closed container for disposal.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Incinerate at an approved facility in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations.
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE: Avoid all inhalation and contact. Keep in a tightly closed container at all times. Protect from
temperature extremes and direct sunlight. Handle with the utmost care. Store in an explosion proof refrigerator at 4C.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS* N/A
Section VIII - Control Measures
