Section 4 - First Aid Measures
|
Eyes:
Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally
lifting the upper and lower eyelids. If irritation develops, get medi
cal aid.
Skin:
Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while
removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if
irritation develops or persists. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do NOT induce
vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls
of milk or water. Wash mouth out with water. Get medical aid if
irritation or symptoms occur.
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. Will burn
if involved in a fire. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed
containers cool. Vapors may be heavier than air. They can spread
along the ground and collect in low or confined areas. Containers may
explode when heated.
Extinguishing Media:
Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Cool containers with
flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out. Use water
spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or appropriate foam.
Flash Point: 100 deg C ( 212.00 deg F)
Autoignition Temperature: 310 deg C ( 590.00 deg F)
Explosion Limits, Lower:1.50 vol %
Upper: .00 vol %
NFPA Rating:
(estimated) Health: 1; Flammability: 1; Instability: 0
|
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. Remove all
sources of ignition. Provide ventilation.
|
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
|
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash hands before eating. Remove
contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Avoid contact with eyes,
skin, and clothing. Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from
heat, sparks and flame. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Use with
adequate ventilation.
Storage:
Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. No special
precautions indicated.
|
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.
