Section 4 - First Aid Measures
|
Eyes:
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. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing
before reuse.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. 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.
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. Water runoff can cause environmental damage. Dike
and collect water used to fight fire. Vapors may form an explosive
mixture with air. 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. Will burn if
involved in a fire. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers
cool. Extremely flammable liquid and vapor. Water may be ineffective.
Material is lighter than water and a fire may be spread by the use of
water. Containers may explode in the heat of a fire. Vapors may be
heavier than air. They can spread along the ground and collect in
low or confined areas.
Extinguishing Media:
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or
alcohol-resistant foam. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed
containers. Water may be ineffective. This material is lighter than
water and insoluble in water. The fire could easily be spread by the
use of water in an area where the water cannot be contained. Use
agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. For large fires, use water
spray, fog or alcohol-resistant foam. Do NOT use straight streams of
water.
Flash Point: -6 deg C ( 21.20 deg F)
Autoignition Temperature: 305 deg C ( 581.00 deg F)
Explosion Limits, Lower:0.8 vol %
Upper: 4.8 vol %
NFPA Rating:
(estimated) Health: 2; Flammability: 3; Instability: 0
|
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
|
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective
Equipment section. Cover with an activated carbon adsorbent and place
into a closed container for disposal. Remove all sources of ignition.
Use a spark-proof tool. Provide ventilation. A vapor suppressing foam
may be used to reduce vapors.
|
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
|
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Use only in a well-ventilated area.
Ground and bond containers when transferring material. Use
spark-proof tools and explosion proof equipment. Avoid breathing
dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and
clothing. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or
vapor), and can be dangerous. Take precautionary measures against
static discharges. Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from
heat, sparks and flame. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Wash clothing
before reuse. 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. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
Flammables-area.

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 general or
local explosion-proof ventilation to keep airborne levels to
acceptable levels.
