SECTION IV - FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA
- FLASH POINT:
- 259 degrees F (Pensky Martens Closed Cup)
- FLAMMABILITY CLASSIFICATION:
- EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
- Foam, Dry Chemical, Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
Note: Toxic fumes will be evolved when this material is involved in a fire. Self-contained breathing apparatus should be available for fire fighters. Cool, fire-exposed containers with water.
SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
- EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE:
ACUTE- Will cause burns to skin and eyes. High concentration of vapors can cause severe irritation of eyes and respiratory tract. Liquid causes severe damage to mucous membranes if swallowed.
- CHRONIC
- Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause asthma and skin sensitization or other allergic response.
- EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES:
EYES:- Immediately flush with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes lifting upper and lower lids occasionally. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. If a physician is not immediately available, continue flushing with water.
- SKIN:
- Immediately flush skin with water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoe. Launder clothing before re-use and discard contaminated leather articles. Get medical attention if swelling or reddening occurs.
- INHALATION:
- Remove to fresh air if effects occur and administer oxygen if necessary. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION if effects persist.
- INGESTION:
- DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Vomiting will cause further damage to the throat Dilute by giving water or milk to drink if victim is conscious. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
- MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE:
- Not known.
SECTION VI - REACTIVITY DATA
- STABILITY:
- Stable under normal storage conditions.
- INCOMPATIBILITY:
- Avoid contact with strong oxidizing agents, mineral acids (e.g. H2504, HCL), and epoxy resins under uncontrolled conditions.
- HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS:
- CO (Carbon Monoxide), C02 (Carbon Dioxide), NO2 (Oxides of Nitrogen)
SECTION VII - SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
- IF MATERIAL IS SPILLED:
- Avoid contact with material. Persons not wearing appropriate protective equipment (see below) should be excluded from the area of spill until clean-up is complete. Stop spill at once, dyke area to prevent spreading, pump liquid to salvage tank. Remaining liquid may be taken up on clay. diatomaceous earth or other absorbent, and shoveled into disposal containers.
- WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD:
- Dispose of as hazardous waste in accordance with Federal, State, and local regulations.
SECTION VIII - SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
- RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:
- NIOSH approved respiratory protection required in the absence of proper environmental control. For emergencies a self-contained breathing apparatus or full-face respirator is recommended.
- VENTILATION:
- Breathing of vapors must be avoided. Ventilation must be sufficient to control vapors. This material should be confined as far as possible within sealed or covered equipment in which case normal ventilation should be adequate. Special (1ocal) ventilation will be needed in areas here vapors are expected to be vented.
- HAND PROTECTION:
- Impervious gloves, neoprene or rubber.
- EYE PROTECTION:
- Splash-proof goggles or safety spectacles with side shields.
- OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT:
- Clean, body-covering clothing. Further safety equipment (apron, footwear, etc.) should be used as necessary to prevent contact with material.
SECTION IX - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
- Prevent all skin and eye contact.
- Avoid breathing vapors.
- Re-seal partly used containers.
- Ensure that all containers are properly labeled to prevent accidental ingestion.
- Wash with soap and water before eating, drinking, smoking, or using toilet facilities.
