2. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
HAZARD DESIGNATION
"Xn" - Harmful
R20/22 - Harmful by inhalation and if swallowed.
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
PHYSICAL APPEARANCE: Transparent, colorless liquid.
IMMEDIATE CONCERNS: Warning! High concentrations of vapor can reduce oxygen available for
breathing. Harmful if inhaled. May decompose on contact with flames or extremely hot metal surfaces
to produce toxic and corrosive products.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
EYES: Substance causes substantial eye irritation.
SKIN: Prolonged or repeated contact can result in defatting and drying of the skin which may result in
skin irritation and dermatitis (rash).
INGESTION: Harmful if swallowed --- contains small amounts of methanol.
INHALATION: High concentrations in immediate area can displace oxygen and can cause dizziness,
unconsciousness, and possibly death with longer exposure. Keep people away from such vapors
without self-contained breathing apparatus.
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE
EYES: Liquid splashed in the eye may cause redness, irritation and conjunctivitis.
SKIN: Prolonged exposure causes redness, pain, drying and cracking of the skin.
INGESTION: For large amounts; abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting.
INHALATION: High concentrations may lead to central nervous system effects (drowsiness, dizziness,
nausea, headaches, paralysis and loss of consciousness).
ACUTE TOXICITY: Overexposure may cause dizziness and loss of concentration. At higher levels, CNS
depression and cardiac arrhythmia may result.

4. FIRST AID MEASURES
EYES: Immediately flush with plenty of water. After initial flushing, remove any contact lenses and
continue flushing for at least 15 minutes. Have eyes examined and tested by medical personnel.
SKIN: Immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Remove clothing. Get medical attention immediately.
Wash clothing separately before reuse.
INGESTION: If swallowed, gently wipe or rinse the inside of the mouth with water. DO NOT induce
vomiting. Sips of water may be given if person is fully conscious. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious or convulsing person. Immediately contact a poison control center, emergency room or
physician as further treatment may be necessary.
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration or give oxygen by trained
personnel. Seek immediate medical attention.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FLASHPOINT AND METHOD: None : . . . . ASTM D-56 (Tag C.C.)
FLAMMABLE LIMITS: 4.5 Volume % to 12.9 Volume % @ 25C
Notes: ASTM E681
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Use alcohol foam, carbon dioxide, or water spray when fighting fires involving
this material.
FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool and to knock
down vapors which may result from product decomposition.
FIRE FIGHTING EQUIPMENT: As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-
demand, (MSHA/NIOSH approved or equivalent) and full protective gear.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Decomposition products are hazardous. This compound
can be decomposed by high temperatures (open flames, glowing metal surfaces, etc.) forming
hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids - possibly carbonyl halides.
COMMENTS: Although this product exhibits no flash point, it does have vapor flammability limits in air.
Material does not sustain combustion when the ignition source is removed.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
SMALL SPILL: Contain spill with dike to prevent entry into sewers.
LARGE SPILL: If this material is released into a work area, evacuate the area immediately.
GENERAL PROCEDURES: Dike area to contain spill. Take precautions as necessary to prevent
contamination of ground and surface waters. Recover spilled material on adsorbent, such as sawdust or
vermiculite, and sweep into closed containers for disposal. After all visible traces, including vapors, have
been removed thoroughly wet vacuum the area. Do not flush to sewer. If area of spill is porous, remove
as much contaminated earth, gravel, etc. as necessary and place in closed containers for disposal.
SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Only personnel equipped with proper respiratory and skin/eye
protection should be permitted in area. See Section 8 for details.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING: Use with sufficient ventilation to keep employee exposure below recommended limits.
Provide adequate ventilation for storage, handling and use, especially for enclosed or low spaces. Avoid
contact of liquid with eyes and prolonged skin exposure. Do not allow product to contact open flame or
electrical heating elements because dangerous decomposition products may form.
STORAGE: Store away from heat.
