Overview
--------------------------
WARNING! MAY BE HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED OR INHALED. CAUSES IRRITATION TO EYES
AND SKIN.
Potential Health Effects
----------------------------------
Information on the human health effects from exposure to this substance is
limited.
Inhalation:
No information found, but compound should be handled as a potential health
hazard.
Ingestion:
Considered relatively non-toxic to humans - but information on the human health
effects from ingestion is limited. Animal studies indicate moderate toxicity
from ingestion. Should be handled as a potential health hazard.
Skin Contact:
Causes irritation to skin. Symptoms include redness, itching, and pain.
Eye Contact:
Causes irritation, redness, and pain.
Chronic Exposure:
No information found.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions:
No information found.
4. First Aid Measures
Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If
breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Ingestion:
Induce vomiting immediately as directed by medical personnel. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention.
Skin Contact:
Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove
contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention. Wash clothing before
reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse.
Eye Contact:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting
lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Fire:
Flash point: 148C (298F) CC
Autoignition temperature: 480C (896F)
May ignite when exposed to heat or flame. Contact with strong oxidizers may
cause fire.
Explosion:
Above the flash point, explosive vapor-air mixtures may be formed.
Fire Extinguishing Media:
Water spray, dry chemical, alcohol foam, or carbon dioxide.
Special Information:
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.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Remove
all sources of ignition. Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate
personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8.
Solid Spills: Clean up spills in a manner that does not disperse dust into the
air. Use non-sparking tools and equipment. Reduce airborne dust and prevent
scattering by moistening with water. Pick up spill for recovery or disposal and
place in a closed container.
Liquid Spills: Absorb with vermiculite, dry sand, earth or similar material and
place in a chemical waste container. Do not use combustible materials, such as
saw dust. Do not flush to sewer.
7. Handling and Storage
Keep in a tightly closed container, stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area. Protect against physical damage. Isolate from incompatible substances. Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids, vapors, liquid); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Airborne
Exposure Limits:
None established.
Ventilation System:
A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee
exposures as low as possible. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred
because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source,
preventing dispersion of it into the general work area. Please refer to the
ACGIH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended Practices,
most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):
For conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is apparent and
engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator (NIOSH type N95
or better filters) may be worn. If oil particles (e.g. lubricants, cutting
fluids, glycerine, etc.) are present, use a NIOSH type R or P filter. For emergencies
or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-face
positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator. WARNING: Air-purifying respirators
do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Skin Protection:
Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron
or coveralls, as appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection:
Use chemical safety goggles and/or full face shield where dusting or splashing
of solutions is possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench
facilities in work area.
