HAZARD
IDENTIFICATION
==============================================================================
Route Of Entry Inds - Inhalation: YES Skin: NO Ingestion: YES
Carcinogenicity Inds - NTP: NO IARC: NO OSHA: NO
Health Hazards Acute And Chronic: EYES: IRRITATION. SKIN: IRRITATION & LOW
ORDER OF TOXICITY. INHALATION: CONCENTRATIONS >1000 PPM IRRITATING TO EYES
& RESPSIRATORY TRACT, CNS EFFECTS, DEATH. INGESTION: SMALL AMOUNTS
ASPIRATED INTO RESPIRATORY SYSTEM DURING INGESTION/VOMITI NG MAY CAUSE
MILD-SEVERE PULMONARY INJURY, POSSIBLY PROGRESSING TO DEATH.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity: NONE
Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure: IRRITATION, HEADACHES, DIZZINESS,
ANESTHESIA, DROWSINESS, UNCONSCIOUSNESS.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Overexposure: PRE-EXISTING DERMATITIS CONDITION.
==============================================================================
FIRST AID
==============================================================================
EYES: FLUSH W/LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER UNTIL IRRITATION SUBSIDES. SKIN: FLUSH
W/LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER, USE SOAP IF AVAILABLE. INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH
AIR. GIVE CPR IF NEEDED. KEEP QUIET. INGESTION: DON'T INDUCE VOMITING. KEEP
QUIET. OBTA IN MEDICAL ATTENTION IN ALL CASES.

FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
==============================================================================
Flash Point Text: 81F
Auto Ignition Temperature Text:
Lower Limits: 1.9 Upper Limits: 12.3
Extinguishing Media: FOAM, DRY CHEMICAL.
Fire Fighting Procedures: USE WATER SPRAY TO COOL FIRE EXPOSED SURFACES &
TO PROTECT PERSONNEL. WEAR RESPIRATORY & EYE PROTECTION. SHUT OFF FUEL TO
FIRE. (SEE SUPP)
Unusal Fire/Explosion Hazard: INVISIBLE VAPORS FORM FLAMMABLE MIXTURES AT TEMPS
>81F. LIQUID/VAPORS TRAVEL TO DISTANT IGNITION SOURCE &
IGNITES/EXPLODES. AUTOIGNITION TEMP: 932F.
==============================================================================
RELEASE MEASURES
==============================================================================
Spill Release Procedures: LAND-REMOVE IGNITION SOURCES. SAFELY STOP LEAK.
SMALL: IMPLEMENT CLEANUP PROCEDURES. LARGE: IMPLEMENT CLEANUP PROCEDURES,
ISOLATE AREA. PREVENT LIQUID FROM ENTERING SEWERS/WATERCOURSES/LOW AREAS.
CONTAIN W/SAND/EARTH. (SEE SUPP)
Neutralizing Agent: N/K
Waste Disposal Methods: DISPOSE OF IAW/FEDERAL, STATE & LOCAL REGULATIONS.
EMPTY DRUMS SHOULD BE COMPLETELY DRAINED, PROPERLY BUNGED & PROMPTLY
RETURNED TO A DRUM RECONDITIONER/PROPERLY DISPOSED OF. FLAMMABLE LIQUID UN1307.
==============================================================================
HANDLING AND STORAGE
==============================================================================
STORE AT AMBIENT TEMPS. USE PROPER GROUNDING PROCEDURES.
==============================================================================
EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
==============================================================================
Respiratory Protection: WEAR A NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED RESPIRATOR WHERE CONCENTRATIONS
IN AIR MAY EXCEED LIMITS & ENGINEERING, WORK PRACTICE/OTHER MEANS OF
EXPOSURE REDUCTIONS AREN'T ADEQUATE.
Ventilation: LOCAL EXHAUST: CONTROL PROCESS EMISSIONS AT SOURCE. MECHANICAL:
CONFINED SPACES. USE EXPLOSION-PROOF EQUIPMENT.
Protective Gloves: CHEMICAL RESISTANT
Eye Protection: SAFETY GLASSES W/SIDE SHIELDS
Other Equipment: LONG SLEEVES
Work Hygenic Practices: LONG SLEEVES
Supplemental Safety & Health: SPECIAL FIRE: AVOID SPRAYING WATER DIRECTLY
INTO STORAGE CONTAINERS. SPILL PROCEDURES: DON'T USE COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS.
RECOVER BY PUMPING/W/SUITABLE ABSORBENT. WATER-REMOVE IGNITION SOURCES. REMOVE
FROM SURFACE BY SKIMMING/W/SUITABLE ABSOR BENT. USE SINKING &/SUITABLE
DISPERSANTS IN NON-CONFINED WATERS IF ALLOWED.
