HAZARD
IDENTIFICATION
==============================================================================
Route Of Entry Inds - Inhalation: N/P Skin: N/P Ingestion: N/P
Carcinogenicity Inds - NTP: N/P IARC: N/P OSHA: N/P
Health Hazards Acute And Chronic: INHALATION: CAUSES IRRITATION WITH UNPLEASANT
CHOKING ODOR. INGESTION: MATERIAL CAUSES IRRITATION AND BURNS TO DIGESTIVE
TRACT. SKIN: CAUSES SEVERE IRRITATION. EYE: CORROSIVE. CAUSES SEVERE EYE
IRRITATION AND BURNS. CHRONIC MAY CAUSE BREATH NG DIFFICULTIES.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity: N/P
Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure: INHALATION: CAUSES COUGHING AND SNEEZING,
POSSIBLY BREATHING DIFFICULTIES IN LARGE AMOUNTS. INGESTION: SYMPTOMS MAY
INCLUDE ABDOMINAL PAIN, VOMITING, DIARRHEA. SKIN: MAY HAVE CORROSIVE EFFECTS,
PRODUCING SKIN BURNS. SKIN ABSORPTION MAY OCCUR UR WITH TOXIC EFFECTS. EYE: MAY
CAUSE REDNESS, PAIN, BLURRED VISION AND EYE DAMAGE.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Overexposure: PERSONS WITH PRE-EXISTING SKIN
DISORDERS OR EYE PROBLEMS OR IMPAIRED RESPIRATORY FUNCTION MAY BE MORE
SUSCEPTIBLE TO THE EFFECTS OF THE SUBSTANCE.
==============================================================================
FIRST AID
==============================================================================
INHALATION-REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. IF NOT BREATHING, GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION.
IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT, GIVE OXYGEN. CALL PHYSICIAN. INGESTION-DO NOT INDUCE
VOMITING. GIVE LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER. NEVER GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN
UNCONSC IOUS PERSON. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY. CALL A PHYSICIAN.
SKIN-IMMEDIATELY FLUSH SKIN WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES WHILE
REMOVING CONTAMINATED CLOTHING & SHOES. WASH CLOTHING BEFORE REUSE. CALL
PHYSICIAN. EYE-IMMEDIATETELY FLUSH EYES WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15
MINUTES, LIFTING LIDS OCCASIONALLY. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
==============================================================================
FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
==============================================================================
Flash Point: PROTECT AGAINST PHYSICAL DAMAGE. OUTSIDE OR DETACHED STORAGE IS
PREFERRED. INSIDE STORAGE SHOULD BE IN A STANDARD FLAMMABLE LIQUID STORAGE ROOM
OR CABINET. SEPARATE FROM OXIDIZING MATERIALS. STORAGE & USE AREAS SHOULD
BE NO SMOKING AREAS.
Auto Ignition Temperature: =513.C, 955.4F
Lower Limits: 2.9 Upper Limits: 12.1
Extinguishing Media: WATER SPRAY, DRY CHEMICAL, ALCOHOL FOAM, CARBON DIOXIDE.
WATER MAY BE USED TO FLUSH SPILLS AWAY FROM EXPOSURES AND TO DILUTE SPILLS TO
NON-FLAMMABLE MIXTURES.
Fire Fighting Procedures: 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.
Unusal Fire/Explosion Hazard: NOT CONSIDERED TO BE AN EXPLOSION HAZARD.
==============================================================================
RELEASE MEASURES
==============================================================================
Spill Release Procedures: VENTILATE AREA. WEAR APPROPRIATE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT. ISOLATE HAZARD AREA. CONTAIN & RECOVER LIQUID WHEN POSSIBLE.
NEUTRALIZE WITH ALKALINE MATERIAL THEN ABSORB WITH AN INERT MATERIAL
(VERMICULITE,DRY SAND,EARTH), & PLACE IN CHEMI CAL WASTE CONTAINER. DO NOT
USE COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL OR FLUSH INTO SEWER! REMOVE ALL SOURCES OF IGNITION.
USE NON-SPARKING EQUIPMENT.
Neutralizing Agent: SODA ASH OR LIME
Waste Disposal Methods: WHATEVER CANNOT BE SAVED FOR RECOVERY OR RECYCLING
SHOULD BE HANDLED AS HAZARDOUS WASTE & SENT TO A RCRA APPROVED INCINERATOR
OR DISPOSED IN A RCRA APPROVED WASTE FACILITY. DISPOSE OF CONTAINER &
UNUSED CONTENTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH FEDERAL, STATE & LOCAL REQUIREMENTS.
==============================================================================
HANDLING AND STORAGE
==============================================================================
PROTECT AGAINST PHYSICAL DAMAGE. OUTSIDE OR DETACHED STORAGE IS PREFERRED.
INSIDE STORAGE SHOULD BE IN A STANDARD FLAMMABLE LIQUID STORAGE ROOM OR
CABINET. SEPARATE FROM OXIDIZING MATERIALS. STORAGE & USE AREAS SHOULD BE
NO SMOKING AREAS.
==============================================================================
EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
==============================================================================
Respiratory Protection: IF EXPOSURE LIMITS IS EXCEEDED, A FULL FACEPIECE
RESPIRATOR WITH ORGANIC VAPOR CARTRIDGE MAY BE WORN UP TO 50 TIMES THE MAX
EXPOSURE LIMIT OR MAX USE CONCENTRATION SPECIFIED BY THE APPROPIATE AGENCY OR
RESPIRATOR SUPPLIER, WHICH EVER IS LOW EST.
Ventilation: A SYSTEM OF LOCAL &/OR GENERAL EXHAUST IS RECOMMENDED. LOCAL
PREFERRED BECAUSE IT CAN CONTROL EMISSIONS AT SOURCE.
Protective Gloves: IWEAR MPERVIOUS GLOVES TO PREVENT SKIN CONTACT.
Eye Protection: USE CHEMICAL SAFETY GOGGLES &/OR FULL FACE SHIELD WHEN
SPLASHING IS POSSIBLE.
Other Equipment: WEAR MPERVIOUS PROTECTIVE CLOTHING, BOOTS, GLOVES, LAB COAT,
APRON OR COVERALLS, AS APPROPIATE, TO PREVENT SKIN CONTACT. MAINTAIN EYE WASH
FOUNTAIN & QUICK-DRENCH FACILITIES IN WORK AREAS.
Work Hygenic Practices: WEAR MPERVIOUS PROTECTIVE CLOTHING, BOOTS, GLOVES, LAB
COAT, APRON OR COVERALLS, AS APPROPIATE, TO PREVENT SKIN CONTACT. MAINTAIN EYE
WASH FOUNTAIN & QUICK-DRENCH FACILITIES IN WORK AREAS.
Supplemental Safety & Health: RESPIRATORS: 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. ****CENCO P/N: 39370-10.
