Potential Health Effects
----------------------------------
Inhalation:
Causes irritation to the respiratory tract. Symptoms may include coughing,
shortness of breath. Exposure to high concentrations may cause numbness,
nausea, headache, CNS depression and vomiting.
Ingestion:
Harmful if swallowed. Direct aspiration into the lungs may cause chemical
pneumonitis and may cause lung damage. Causes irritation to the
gastrointestinal tract. Symptoms may include nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
Skin Contact:
Causes irritation to skin. Symptoms include redness, itching, and pain. May cause
dermatitis.
Eye Contact:
Causes irritation, redness, and pain. Contact may cause eye damage.
Chronic Exposure:
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may produce a skin infection.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions:
The use of alcohol beverages may enhance the toxic effects of this substance.
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:
Aspiration hazard. If swallowed, vomiting may occur spontaneously, but DO NOT
INDUCE. If vomiting occurs, keep head below hips to prevent aspiration into
lungs. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a physician
immediately.
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: 58C (136F) CC
Autoignition temperature: 250C (482F)
Flammable limits in air % by volume:
lel: 0.7; uel: 4.9
Flammable Liquid and Vapor!
Explosion:
Above flash point, vapor-air mixtures are explosive within flammable limits
noted above. Sealed containers may rupture when heated. Contact with strong
oxidizers may cause fire. Sensitive to static discharge.
Fire Extinguishing Media:
Dry chemical, alcohol foam or carbon dioxide. Do not use a solid stream of
water, since the stream will scatter and spread the fire.
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. Vapors can flow along surfaces to
distant ignition source and flash back.
6.
Accidental Release Measures
Ventilate
area of leak or spill. Remove all sources of ignition. Wear appropriate
personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8. Isolate hazard area.
Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Contain and recover
liquid when possible. Use non-sparking tools and equipment. Collect liquid in
an appropriate container or absorb with an inert material (e. g., vermiculite,
dry sand, earth), 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
packed under nitrogen.
Protect against physical damage. Store in a cool, dry well-ventilated location,
away from any area where the fire hazard may be acute. Outside or detached
storage is preferred. Separate from incompatibles. Containers should be bonded
and grounded for transfers to avoid static sparks. Storage and use areas should
be No Smoking areas. Use non-sparking type tools and equipment, including
explosion proof ventilation. Containers of this material may be hazardous when
empty since they retain product residues (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 the substance is apparent and engineering
controls are not feasible, consult an industrial hygienist. For emergencies, or
instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-facepiece
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 a full face shield where splashing is
possible. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.

Stability and Reactivity
Stability:
Stable under ordinary conditions of use and storage. Hygroscopic. Reacts
violently with strong oxidizers. Potentially explosive peroxides can form on
long-time storage in contact with air. Light and heat accelerate peroxide
formation.

Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide may form when heated to decomposition.
Hazardous Polymerization:
Will not occur.
Incompatibilities:
Strong oxidizers.
Conditions to Avoid:
Heat, flame, ignition sources, incompatibles, light, and air.

Ecological Information
Environmental
Fate:
When released into the soil, this material may biodegrade to a moderate extent.
When released to water, this material is expected to quickly evaporate. This
material may bioaccumulate to some extent. When released into the air, this
material is expected to be readily degraded by reaction with photochemically
produced hydroxyl radicals.
Environmental Toxicity:
No information found.
