Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:NO
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:YES IARC:YES OSHA:YES
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACUTE: MODERATE TO SEVERE EYE
IRRITATION, MODERATE SKIN IRRITATION, UPPER RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
IRRITATION AND CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS, ASPIRATION HAZARD IF
SWALLOWED. CHRONIC: DERMATITIS. BENZENE MAY CAUSE BLOOD CHANGES
LEADING TO ANEMIA AND LEUKEMIA. BENZENE IS ALSO A CANCER HAZARD.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:CONTAINS B [71-43-2] WHICH IS
LISTED BY NTP AND IARC AND REGULATED BY OSHA AS A CARCINOGEN.
Effects of Overexposure:INHALATION: COUGHING, SHORTNESS OF BREATH,
DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, FATIGUE, UNCONSCIOUSNESS, DEATH. EYES: REDNESS,
TEARING, BLURRED VISION. SKIN: REDNESS, BLISTERING, SWELLING.
INGESTION: NAUSEA, DIARRHEA, VOMITING, ABDOMINAL DISCOMFORT.
ASPIRATION INTO LUNGS MAY CAUSE HEMORRHAGING, PULMONARY EDEMA,
POSSIBLE DEATH.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:SKIN CONTACT MAY AGGRAVATE AN
EXISTING DERMATITIS.

First Aid:EYE: FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR 15 MINUTES. SEE DOCTOR.
SKIN: REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING, FLUSH WITH WATER FOR 15
MINUTES. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. INHALATION: REMOVE FROM EXPOSURE.
RESUSCITATE OR GIVE OXYGEN IF NEEDED. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.
INGESTION: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. IF VOMITING OCCURS, KEEP HEAD
LOWER THAN HIPS TO PREVENT ASPIRATION. SEE DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY.

Flash Point Method:PMCC
Flash Point:100F,38C
Extinguishing Media:FOAM, CARBON DIOXIDE, DRY CHEMICAL, WATER SPRAY.
WATER OR FOAM MAY CAUSE FROTHING AND SCATTER THE FIRE.
Fire Fighting Procedures:USE SELF CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS,
ESPECIALLY IN ENCLOSED AREAS. WATER SPRAY MAY BE USED TO COOL FIRE
EXPOSED CONTAINERS AND EQUIPMENT.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:VAPORS HEAVIER THAN AIR. CAN TRAVEL A
LONG DISTANCE ALONG GROUND AND FLASHBACK. FLOWING FLUID CAN BE
IGNITED BY SELF-GENERATED STATIC ELECTRICITY.

Spill Release Procedures:VENTILATE AREA. AVOID BREATHING VAPOR. USE
SCBA OR SUPPLIED AIR IN CONFINED AREAS. CONTAIN SPILL. WIPE UP OR
ABSORB ON SUITABLE MATERIAL AND SHOVEL UP. PREVENT ENTRY INTO
SEWERS AND WATERWAYS. AVOID C ONTACT WITH SKIN, EYES, CLOTHING.
Neutralizing Agent:NONE

Handling and Storage Precautions:STORE IN CLOSED CONTAINERS IN A DRY,
COOL PLACE, AWAY FROM IGNITION SOURCES AND INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS.
GROUND AND BOND AL CONTAINERS.
Other Precautions:"EMPTY" CONTAINERS MAY CONTAINE RESIDUE AND CAN BE
HAZARDOUS. DO NOT CUT OR WELD. DO NOT PRESSURIZE, CUT, WELD, OR
EXPOSE TO OPEN FLAME OR HEAT. CONTAINERS MAY EXPLODE AND CAUSE
INJURY OR DEATH.

Respiratory Protection:NONE NORMALLY REQUIRED. USE SCBA OR SUPPLIED AIR
RESPIRATOR IF A LARGE SPILL OCCURS OR SPILL IS IN CONFINED SPACE OR
ENCLOSED AREA.
Ventilation:LOCAL EXHAUST IS RECOMMENDED IF GENERATING MIST OR VAPOR,
PARTICULARY IN ENCLOSED AREAS.
Protective Gloves:NITRILE GLOVES.
Eye Protection:CHEMICAL-TYPE GOGGLES OR FACESHIELD.
Other Protective Equipment:PROTECTIVE CLOTHING SUCH AS UNIFORMS OR
COVERALLS. EYE WASH AND SAFETY SHOWER.
Work Hygienic Practices:WASH THOROUGHLY AFTER HANDLING. DRY CLEANING OF
CONTAMINATED CLOTHING MAY BE MORE EFFECTIVE THAN NORMAL LAUNDERING.
Supplemental Safety and Health
WHOLE DIESEL EXHAUST IS A POTENTIAL CARCINOGEN. MINIMIZE EXPOSURE. NOTE
TO PHYSICIAN: ASPIRATION DURING EMESIS CAN DAMAGE LUNGS. TO
EVACUATE STOMACH USE GASTRIC LAVAGE AFTER ENDOTRACHEAL INTUBATION.
N OTE: PETROLEUM DISTILLATES HAVE PRODUCED KIDNEY AND LIVER DAMAGE
IN LABORATORY ANIMALS. NOTE: POUR POINT FROM "TIR".
