EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: clear, colorless liquid. Flash Point: 80 deg C.
Danger! Causes severe eye and skin burns. Causes
digestive and respiratory tract burns. Combustible liquid and
vapor. The toxicological properties of this material
have not been fully investigated.
Target Organs: Respiratory system,
gastrointestinal system, eyes, skin.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes severe eye burns.
Skin:
Causes severe skin irritation and burns. May be metabolized to
cyanide which in turn acts by inhibiting cytochrome oxidase impairing
cellular respiration.
Ingestion:
May cause severe gastrointestinal tract irritation with nausea,
vomiting and possible burns. The toxicological properties of this
substance have not been fully investigated. Metabolism may release
cyanide, which may result in headache, dizziness, weakness, collapse,
unconsciousness and possible death.
Inhalation:
May cause burns to the respiratory tract. May be metabolized to
cyanide which in turns act by inhibiting cytochrome oxidase
impairing cellular respiration. Inhalation may result in symptoms
similar to cyanide poisoning which include tachypnea, hyperpnea
(abnormally rapid or deep breathing), and dyspnea (labored
breathing) followed rapidly by respiratory depression. Pulmonary
edema may occur.
Chronic:
No information found.
|
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 immediately. Do
NOT allow victim to rub eyes or keep eyes closed.
Skin:
Get medical aid immediately. Flush skin with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Discard contaminated clothing in a manner which limits further
exposure. Treat patient as for inhalation.
Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4
cupfuls of milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person. Get medical aid immediately. Treat patient as
for inhalation.
Inhalation:
Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh
air immediately. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Do NOT use
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing has ceased apply
artificial respiration using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device
such as a bag and a mask.
Notes to Physician:
Exposure should be treated as a cyanide poisoning.
Antidote:
Always have a cyanide antidote kit on hand when working with cyanide
compounds. Get medical advice to use.

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. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers
cool. Containers may explode when heated. Combustible liquid and
vapor.
Extinguishing Media:
Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers. Use water spray,
dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or chemical foam. Cool containers with
flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out.
Flash Point: 80 deg C ( 176.00 deg F)
Autoignition Temperature: Not available.
Explosion Limits, Lower:Not available.
Upper: Not available.
NFPA Rating:
(estimated) Health: 3; Flammability: 2; 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. Remove all sources of ignition.
Provide ventilation.
|
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
|
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Use only in a well-ventilated area.
Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Empty containers retain
product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Keep
container tightly closed. Do not ingest or inhale. Do not
pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose empty
containers to heat, sparks or open flames. Keep away from heat and
flame.
Storage:
Keep away from sources of ignition. Store in a tightly closed
container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from
incompatible substances. Storage under a nitrogen blanket has been
recommended.
|
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.
