**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance:
colourless. Flash Point: 40.6 deg C.
Danger! Flammable liquid. Strong
oxidizer. Contact with other
material may cause a fire. Harmful if inhaled.
Corrosive. May become
violently reactive or explosive exposed to heat, shock
or friction.
May be harmful if swallowed or absorbed through the
skin.
Target Organs: None.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation and burns.
Vapor is highly irritating to the
eyes.
Skin:
Causes
severe skin irritation and burns. May be harmful if absorbed
through the skin.
Ingestion:
May cause severe gastrointestinal tract irritation
with nausea,
vomiting and possible burns.
May be harmful if swallowed.
Inhalation:
May cause burns to the respiratory tract. Vapors may cause
dizziness
or suffocation. Vapor or mist is
irritating to the mucous membranes
and
upper respiratory tract.
Chronic:
Not available.
**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
****
Eyes:
Get medical
aid immediately. Do NOT allow victim to rub or keep eyes
closed. Extensive irrigation is required (at least 30
minutes).
Skin:
Get
medical aid immediately. Immediately flush skin with plenty of
soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing
contaminated
clothing and shoes. Wash
clothing before reuse. Discard contaminated
clothing in a manner which limits further exposure.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to
an unconscious person. Get medical
aid
immediately. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert,
rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or
water.
Inhalation:
Get
medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure to fresh air
immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration.
If
breathing is difficult, give oxygen. DO
NOT use mouth-to-mouth
respiration.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively.
**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
****
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent),
and full
protective gear. Vapors can travel
to a source of ignition and flash
back.
During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be
generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. This material is
an
explosion hazard when exposed to heat,
mechanical shock, or friction.
Flammable
Liquid. Vapors may be heavier than air. They can spread
along the ground and collect in low or confined
areas.
Extinguishing Media:
Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Use flooding
quantities of water.
**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
****
General Information: Use proper personal protective
equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Absorb spill with inert
material, (e.g., dry sand or earth), then
place into a chemical waste container. Clean up spills
immediately,
observing precautions in the
Protective Equipment section. Remove
all
sources of ignition. Provide ventilation.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE
****
Handling:
Wash
thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Use only in a well ventilated area.
Material is
heat, shock and/or friction
sensitive. Use care in handling and
storage. Ground and bond containers when transferring material.
Do
not get in eyes, on skin, or on
clothing. Empty containers retain
product
residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Do not
ingest or inhale. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze,
solder,
drill, grind, or expose empty
containers to heat, sparks or open
flames.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources
of
ignition. Keep container closed when not
in use. Store in a cool,
dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION
****
Engineering Controls:
Use adequate ventilation to keep airborne concentrations
low.
