Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:EYE: PRODUCES IRRITATION. SKIN:
EXPOSURE MAY CAUSE IRRITATION. INGESTION: MAY CAUSE IRRITATION OF
DIGESTIVE TRACT. MAY CAUSE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DEPRESSION,
KIDNEY DAMAGE, AND LIVER DAMAGE. INHALA TION: INHALATION OF HIGH
CONCENTRATIONS MAY CAUSE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS. MAY CAUSE
LIVER AND KIDNEY DAMAGE. MAY CAUSE MOTOR INCOORDINATION AND SPEECH
ABNORMALITIES. CHRONIC: PROLONGED OR REPE ATED SKIN CONTACT MAY
CAUSE DERMATITIS. CHRONIC INHALATION MAY CAUSE EFFECTS SIMILAR TO
THOSE OF ACUTE INHALATION.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:2 - PROPANONE - ACGIH: A4 - NOT
CLASSIFIABLE AS A HUMAN CARCINOGEN
Effects of Overexposure:EYE: IRRITATION, BURNING SENSATION, REDNESS,
TEARING, INFLAMMATION, AND POSSIBLE CORNEAL INJURY. SKIN:
IRRITATION, REDNESS, DRYNESS, AND INFLAMMATION. INGESTION: MAY
CAUSE IRRITATION OF THE DIGESTIVE TRACT. MAY CAUSE CENTRAL NERVOUS
SYSTEM DEPRESSION, KIDNEY DAMAGE, AND LIVER DAMAGE. SYMPTOMS MAY
INCLUDE: HEADACHE, EXCITEMENT, FATIGUE, NAUSEA, VOMITING, STUPOR,
AND COMA. MAY CAUSE LIVER AND KIDNEY DAMAGE. INHALATION: CENTRAL
NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS, NAUSEA, HEADACHE, DIZZINESS,
UNCONSCIOUSNESS, COMA, LIVER DAMAGE, KIDNEY DAMAGE, MOTOR
INCOORDINATION, SPEECH ABNORMALITIES.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:NO DATA PROVIDED BY MANUFACTURER.

First Aid:EYES: FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES,
LIFTING LIDS. GET MEDICAL AID IMMEDIATELY. SKIN: FLUSH WITH PLENTY
OF SOAP & WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES WHILE REMOVING CLOTHES. GET
MEDICAL AID IF IRRITATION PERSISTS. WASH CLOTHES BEFORE REUSE.
INGESTION: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING! IF CONSCIOUS, GIVE 2-4 CUPS OF
MILK OR WATER. NOTHING BY MOUTH IF UNCONSCIOUS. GET IMMEDIATE
MEDICAL AID. INH ALATION: GET MEDICAL AID IMMEDIATELY. REMOVE TO
FRESH AIR IMMEDIATELY. IF NOT BREATHING, GIVE ARTIFICIAL
RESPIRATION (DO NOT USE MOUTH-TO-MOUTH!). IF BREATHING DIFFICULT,
GIVE OXYGEN. NOTE TO PHYSICIA N: TREAT SYMPTOMATICALLY &
SUPPORTIVELY.

Flash Point:=-20.C, -4.F
Autoignition Temp:=465.C, 869.F
Lower Limits:2.5
Upper Limits:12.8
Extinguishing Media:FOR SMALL FIRES, USE DRY CHEMICAL, CARBON DIOXIDE,
WATER SPRAY OR ALCOHOL-RESISTANT FOAM. FOR LARGE FIRES, USE WATER
SPRAY, FOG, OR ALCOHOL-RESISTANT FOAM.
Fire Fighting Procedures:AS IN ANY FIRE, WEAR A SELF-CONTAINED
BREATHING APPARATUS IN PRESSURE-DEMAND, MSHA/NIOSH (APPROVED OR
QUIVALENT), AND FULL PROTECTIVE GEAR.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:CONTAINERS CAN BUILD UP PRESSURE IF
EXPOSED TO HEAT AND/OR FIRE. VAPORS MAY FORM AN EXPLOSIVE MIXTURE
WITH AIR. VAPORS CAN TRAVEL TO A SOURCE OF IGNITION AND FLASH BACK.

Spill Release Procedures:USE PROPER PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT.
ABSORB SPILL WITH INERT MATERIAL, THEN PLACE INTO A CHEMICAL WASTE
CONTAINER. AVOID RUNOFF INTO STORM SEWERS AND DITCHES WHICH LEAD TO
WATERWAYS. WEAR APPROPR IATE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING TO MINIMIZE
CONTACT WITH SKIN. REMOVE ALL SOURCES OF IGNITION. PROVIDE
VENTILATION. CLEAN UP RESIDUE BY WASHING WITH 2-5% SOLUTION OF SODA
ASH.
Neutralizing Agent:NO DATA PROVIDED BY MANUFACTURER.

Handling and Storage Precautions:WASH THOROUGHLY AFTER HANDLING. REMOVE
CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND WASH BEFORE REUSE. USE ONLY IN A WELL
VENTILATED AREA. USE WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION. GROUND AND BOND
CONTAINERS WHEN TRANSFERRING MATE RIAL. AVOID CONTACT WITH EYES,
SKIN, AND CLOTHING. KEEP CONTAINER TIGHTLY CLOSED.
Other Precautions:EMPTY CONTAINERS RETAIN PRODUCT RESIDUE & CAN BE
DANGEROUS. AVOID CONTACT WITH HEAT, SPARKS & FLAME. AVOID INGESTION
& INHALATION. DO NOT PRESSURIZE, CUT, WELD, BRAZE, SOLDER, DRILL,
GRIND CONTAINERS. KEEP AWAY FROM SOURCES OF IGNITION. STORE IN A
WELL-VENTILATED, COOL, DRY PLACE AWAY FROM INCOMPATI BLES.

Respiratory Protection:FOLLOW THE OSHA RESPIRATOR REGULATIONS FOUND IN
29CFR 1910.134 OR EUROPEAN STANDARD EN 149. ALWAYS USE A NIOSH OR
EUROPEAN STANDARD EN 149 APROVED RESPIRATOR WHEN NECESSARY.
Ventilation:USE ADEQUATE GENERAL OR LOCAL EXHAUST VENTILATION TO KEEP
AIRBORNE CONCENTRATIONS BELOW THE PERMISSABLE EXPOSURE LIMITS.
Protective Gloves:WEAR APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE GLOVES TO PREVENT SKIN
EXPOSURE
Eye Protection:PROTECTIVE EYEGLASSES OR CHEMICAL SAFETY GOGGLES
Other Protective Equipment:WEAR APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING TO
PREVENT SKIN EXPOSURE. FACILITIES STORING OR UTILIZING THIS
MATERIAL SHOULD BE EQUIPPED WITH EYEWASH FACILITY AND SAFTEY
SHOWER.
Work Hygienic Practices:REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND WASH BEFORE
REUSE. WASH THOROUGHLY AFTER HANDLING. AVOID INHALATION AND
INGESTION. AVOID CONTACT WITH EYES, SKIN AND CLOTHING.
