EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: APHA: 20 max liquid.
Warning! Harmful if swallowed. May cause eye,
skin, and respiratory tract irritation. May cause central nervous
system effects. May cause adverse reproductive effects based upon
animal studies.
Target Organs: Central nervous system,
gastrointestinal system.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause eye irritation.
Skin:
May cause skin irritation.
Ingestion:
Harmful if swallowed. May cause irritation of the digestive tract.
May inhibit cholinesterase activity, thereby producing nervous system
effects.
Inhalation:
May cause respiratory tract irritation. May cause drowsiness,
unconsciousness, and central nervous system depression. Harmful if
inhaled.
Chronic:
Chronic exposure to organic solvents has been associated with
various neurotoxic effects including permanent brain and nervous
system damage. May cause liver and kidney damage. Chronic ingestion
may cause neurological symptoms. Adverse reproductive effects have
been reported in animals.

Section 4 - First Aid Measures
|
Eyes:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin:
Get medical aid. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Ingestion:
Get medical aid. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert,
rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not
breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Get medical aid if cough or other symptoms appear.
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. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases
may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion.
Extinguishing Media:
Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or chemical foam.
Flash Point: 111 deg C ( 231.80 deg F)
Autoignition Temperature: 480 deg C ( 896.00 deg F)
Explosion Limits, Lower:1.2 vol %
Upper: 10 vol %
NFPA Rating:
(estimated) Health: 1; Flammability: 1; Instability: 1
|
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. vermiculite, sand or earth),
then place in suitable container. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and
ditches which lead to waterways. Clean up spills immediately,
observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Provide
ventilation.
|
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
|
Handling:
Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and
clothing. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Avoid breathing vapor or
mist.
Storage:
Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
|
Section 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection
|
Engineering Controls:
Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate
ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low.
