Potential Health Effects
----------------------------------
Inhalation:
May cause irritation of the mucous membranes and respiratory tract. May produce
headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. High vapor concentrations
may produce narcosis and death.
Ingestion:
May cause abdominal pain, vomiting. Other symptoms parallel inhalation.
Skin Contact:
May cause irritation with redness and pain.
Eye Contact:
Vapors may produce eye irritation. Splashes may cause severe pain and
irritation.
Chronic Exposure:
Prolonged or repeated skin contact causes defatting of the skin.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions:
Persons with pre-existing skin disorders or eye problems, or impaired liver,
kidney or respiratory function may be more susceptible to the effects of the
substance.
4. First
Aid Measures
Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If
breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Call a physician.
Ingestion:
Induce vomiting immediately as directed by medical personnel. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Skin Contact:
Remove any contaminated clothing. Wash skin with soap or mild detergent and
water for at least 15 minutes. Wash clothes before reuse. Get medical attention
if irritation develops or persists.
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: 43C (109F) CC
Auto ignition temperature: 350C (662F)
Flammable limits in air % by volume:
lel: 1.2; uel: 9.0
Combustible Liquid and Vapor!
Explosion:
Above flash point, vapor-air mixtures are explosive within flammable limits
noted above.
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 face piece operated in the
pressure demand or other positive pressure mode. Water spray may be used to
keep fire exposed containers cool. Both vapor and liquid may travel to source
of ignition 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
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:
-OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL):
100 ppm (TWA)
-ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV):
100 ppm (TWA), 125 ppm (STEL)
Ventilation System:
A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee
exposures below the Airborne Exposure Limits. 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):
If the exposure limit is exceeded and engineering controls are not feasible, a
full face piece respirator with organic vapor cartridge may be worn up to 50
times the exposure limit or the maximum use concentration specified by the
appropriate regulatory agency or respirator supplier, whichever is lowest. For
emergencies or instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a
full-face piece positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator. WARNING: Air
purifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
This compound possibly exists in both particulate and vapor phase. A particulate
(NlOSH type N95 or better) prefilter should be used for the particulate.
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.

10. Stability
and Reactivity
Stability: Stable
under ordinary conditions of use and storage. Heat contributes to instability.
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide may
form when heated to decomposition. May produce acrid smoke and irritating fumes
when heated to decomposition.
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur.
Incompatibilities: Contact with strong oxidizers may cause fire and
explosions. This material reacts vigorously with reducing agents, and explosively
with hydrogen trisulfide.
Conditions to Avoid: Heat, flames, ignition sources and incompatibles.
