Cyclohexane. Cyclohexane is also known as Hexahydrobenzene and Cyclohexaan.
SECTION 2: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
Emergency Overview: Colorless liquid. Flash Point: -20 deg C. Extremely flammable liquid and vapor may cause a flash fire.
Harmful or fatal if swallowed. Aspiration hazard if swallowed. Can enter lungs and cause damage. May cause respiratory and
digestive tract irritation. May cause eye and skin irritation. May cause central nervous system depression. May cause liver and
kidney damage. Target Organs: kidneys, central nervous system, liver, cardiovascular system, eye, lens or cornea. Very toxic to
aquatic organisms. May be harmful to the environment if released in large amounts.
Potential Health Effects
Inhalation: Causes irritation to the respiratory tract. Symptoms may include coughing, shortness of breath. Inhalation of high
concentrations may cause central nervous system effects characterized by nausea, headache, dizziness, unconsciousness and
coma.
Ingestion: Ingestion of large amounts may cause gastrointestinal irritation. May cause liver and kidney damage. May cause central
nervous system depression, characterized by excitement, followed by headache, dizziness, drowsiness, and nausea. Advanced
stages may cause collapse, unconsciousness, coma and possible death due to respiratory failure. May cause vascular collapse
and damage. Aspiration of material into the lungs may cause chemical pneumonitis, which may be fatal.
Skin Contact: May be absorbed through the skin in harmful amounts. May cause irritation with burning pain, itching and redness.

SECTION 4: FIRST AID INFORMATION
Inhalation: Get medical attention immediately. Remove to fresh air. 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.
Ingestion: If swallowed, vomiting may occur spontaneously, but DO NOT INDUCE. If vomiting occurs, keep head below hips to
help prevent aspiration. If person is unconscious, turn head to side. Get medical attention immediately. If victim is conscious and
alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Skin Contact: In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes. Remove
contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Get medical aid if irritation develops or persists.
Eye Contact: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical
aid. Do NOT allow victim to rub or keep eyes closed.
SECTION 5: FIRE-FIGHTING INFORMATION
Fire: Flash point (closed cup): -18C (0F)
Autoignition temperature: 245C (473F)
Flammable limits in air % by volume: Lower = 1.3 Upper = 8.4
NFPA Rating: health-1; flammability-3; reactivity-0
Explosion: Above flash point, vapor-air mixtures are explosive within flammable limits noted above. Vapors can flow along
surfaces to distant ignition source and flash back. Sealed containers may rupture when heated. Contact with strong oxidizers may
cause fire. Sensitive to static discharge.
Fire Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, foam or carbon dioxide. Water may be ineffective. 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.
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8. Ventilate area of leak or spill. Remove all sources of ignition.
Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth), scoop up with a nonsparking tool, then place into a suitable
container for disposal. Do not flush to sewer!
SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Use only in a well-ventilated
area. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid contact with heat, sparks and flame. Do not get on skin or in eyes. Avoid ingestion and
inhalation.
Storage: Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROL/PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Airborne Exposure Limits: United States - OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL): 300 ppm (TWA)
United States - ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV): 300 ppm (TWA)
Australia: Time-weighted average 300 ppm (1050 mg/m3), JAN1993
The Netherlands: MAC-TGG 250 ppm (875 mg/m3), JAN1999
Personal Protective Equipment
Eye Protection: Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face
protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European Standard EN166. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench facilities in
work area.
Skin Protection: Wear nitrile-latex gloves, apron, and/or clothing.
Clothing: Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin exposure.
Respirators: Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29CFR 1910.134 or European Standard EN 149. Use a NIOSH or
European Standard EN 149 approved respirator when necessary.
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.
