SECTION 3- HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
DANGER! EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE LIQUID AND VAPOR. VAPOR MAY CAUSE FLASH FIRE.
CORROSIVE. CAUSES BURNS TO ANY AREA OF CONTACT. HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED,
INHALED OR ABSORBED THROUGH SKIN. AFFECTS CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.
Potential Health Effects
Inhalation:
Vapors can irritate the nose and throat and may produce headache and pulmonary
edema. Exposure to excessive vapor concentrations may cause nausea, vomiting,
faintness, coughing, chest pains, dizziness, depression, convulsions, narcosis and
possibly unconsciousness. Exposure of this nature is unlikely, however, because of the
irritating properties of the vapor.

Ingestion:
Toxic. Ingestion is harmful and symptoms may parallel those from inhalation. Can also
cause irritation to the mouth, throat and gastro-intestinal tract. Ingestion can be
fatal.
Skin Contact:
Contact may cause deep penetrating burns. Can be absorbed through the skin with
symptoms paralleling those from inhalation.
Eye Contact:
Vapors irritate the eyes and splashes can cause burns, severe damage, and loss of
vision.
Chronic Exposure:
Prolonged or repeated skin exposure may cause dermatitis.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions:
Persons with pre-existing skin disorders or eye problems or impaired respiratory
function may be more susceptible to the effects of the substance.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is
difficult, give oxygen. Call a physician. Call a physician immediately.
Ingestion:
DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Give large quantities of water. Never give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person. Call a physician immediately.
Skin Contact:
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes
while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before re-use.
Thoroughly clean shoes before reuse. Call a physician immediately.
Eye Contact:
Immediately flush eyes with gentle but large stream of water for at least 15 minutes,
lifting lower and upper eyelids occasionally. Call a physician immediately.
Note to Physician:
For severe exposures, monitor for delayed onset of pulmonary edema.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fire Extinguishing Media:
Dry chemical, alcohol foam or carbon dioxide. Do not use a solid stream of water,
since the stream will scatter and spread the fire. Water spray may be used to keep
fire exposed containers cool, dilute spills to nonflammable mixtures, protect
personnel attempting to stop leak and disperse vapors.

Special Information:
In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained
breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in the pressure demand or other
positive pressure mode. Vapors can flow along surfaces to distant ignition source and
flash back. Closed containers exposed to heat may explode. Contact with strong
oxidizers may cause fire.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ventilate area of leak or spill. Remove all sources of ignition. Wear appropriate
personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8. Isolate hazard area. Keep
unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Contain and recover liquid
when possible. Use non-sparking tools and equipment. Collect liquid in an appropriate
container or absorb with an inert material (e. g., vermiculite, dry sand, earth), and
place in a chemical waste container. Do not use combustible materials, such as saw
dust. Do not flush to sewer! Use water spray to reduce vapors. US Regulations
(CERCLA) require reporting spills and releases to soil, water and air in excess of
reportable quantities
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Protect against physical damage. Store in a cool, dry well-ventilated location, away
from any area where the fire hazard may be acute. Outside or detached storage is
preferred. Separate from incompatibles. Containers should be bonded and grounded
for transfers to avoid static sparks. Storage and use areas should be No Smoking areas.
Use non-sparking type tools and equipment, including explosion proof ventilation.
Containers of this material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product
residues (vapors, liquid); observe all warnings and precautions listed for the product.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ventilation System:
A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures
below the Airborne Exposure Limits. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred
because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source, preventing
dispersion of it into the general work area. Please refer to the ACGIH document,
Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended Practices, most recent edition, for
details. Use explosion-proof equipment.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):
If the exposure limit is exceeded and engineering controls are not feasible, a half-face
respirator with an ammonia/methylamine cartridge may be worn for up to ten times
the exposure limit or the maximum use concentration specified by the appropriate
regulatory agency or respirator supplier, whichever is lowest. A full-face piece
respirator with an ammonia/methylamine cartridge may be worn up to 50 times the
exposure limit, or the maximum use concentration specified by the appropriate
regulatory agency, or respirator supplier, whichever is lowest. For emergencies or
instances where the exposure levels are not known, use a full-facepiece positive-
pressure, air-supplied respirator. WARNING: Air-purifying respirators do not protect
workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres. Not specifically approved, but better
service life than organic vapor cartridge.

Skin Protection:
Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls,
as appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection:
Use chemical safety goggles and/or a full face shield where splashing is possible. Maintain
eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in work area.
