Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACUTE: CAUSES RESPIRATORY TRACT
IRRITATION. MAY CAUSE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DEPRESSION. MAY CAUSE
LIVER AND KIDNEY DAMAGE. CAUSES EYE AND SKIN IRRITATION. CHRONIC:
DERMATITIS, CHRONIC INHALATION EFFE CTS ARE SIMILAR TO THOSE OF
ACUTE. TARGET ORGANS: KIDNEYS, CENTAL NERVOUS SYSTEM, LIVER,
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM, EYES, SKIN.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:CAS# 67-64-1: ACGIH: A4 - NOT
CLASSIFIABLE AS A HUMAN CARCINOGEN
Effects of Overexposure:EYE: PRODUCES IRRITAION, CHARACTERIZED BY A
BURNING SENSATION, REDNESS, TEARING, INFLAMMATION, AND POSSIBLE
CORNEAL INJURY. DKIN: EXPOSURE MAY CAUSE IRRITATION CHARACTERIZED
BY REDNESS, DRYNESS, AND I NFLAMMATION. 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, VOMITIN, STUPOR, AND COMA.
MAY CAUSE LIVER AND KIDNEY DAMAGE. MAY CAUSE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
DEPRESSION, CHARACTERIZED BY EXCITEMENT, FOLLOWED BY HEADACHE,
DIZZINESS, DROWSINESS, AND NAUSEA. SEE OTHER INFORMATION).

First Aid:EYES: FLUSH EYES WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15
MINUTES, OCCASIONALLY LIFTING THE UPPER AND LOWER EYELIDS. GET
MEDICAL AID IMMEDIATLEY. SKIN: FLUSH SKIN WITH PLENTY OF SOAP AND
WATER FOR AT LEAS T 15 MINUTES WHILE REMOVING CONTAMINATED CLOTHING
AND SHOES. GET MEDICAL AID IF IRRITATION DEVELOPS OR PERSISTS. WASH
CLOTHING BEFORE REUSE. INGESTION: DONOT INDUCE VOMITING. IF VICTIM
IS CONSCIOUS AN D ALERT, GIVE 2-4 CUPFULS OF MILK OR WATER. NEVER
GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON. GET MEDICAL AID
IMMEDIATELY. SEE SUPPLEMENTAL DATA.

Flash Point:=-20.C, -4.F
Autoignition Temp:=465.C, 869.F
Lower Limits:2.5
Upper Limits:12.8
Extinguishing Media:SMALL FIRES: DRY CHEMICAL, CARBON DIOXIDE, WATER
SPRAY OR ALCOHOL-RESISTANT FOAM. LARGE FIRES: WATER SPRAY, FOG, OR
ALCOHOL-RESISTANT FOAM. WATER MAY BE INEFFECTIVE.
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR A SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS IN
PRESSURE-DEMAND, MSHA/NIOSH (APPROVED OR EQUIVALENT), AND FULL
PROTECTIVE GEAR. USE WATER SPRAY TO COOL FIRE-EXPOSED CONTAINERS.
DO NOT USE STRAIGHT STEAMS OF WATER. COOL CONTAINERS WITH FLOODING
QUANTITIES OF WATER UNTIL WELL AFTER FIRE IS OUT.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:VAPORS MAY FORM AND EXPLOSIVE MIXTURE
WITH AIR. VAPORS CAN TRAVEL TO A SOURCE OF IGNITION AND FLASH BACK.
DURING A FIRE, IRRITATING AND HIGHLY TOXIC GASES MAY BE GENERATED
BY THERMAL DECOMPOSITION OR COMBUSTION.EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE LIQUID
AND VAPOR. VAPORS MAY BE HEAVIER THAN AIR.

Spill Release Procedures:USE PROPER PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT.
ABSORB SPILL WITH INERT MATERIAL (E.G. VERMICULITE, DAND OR EARTH),
THEN PLACE IN SUITABLE CONTAINER. AVOID RUNOFF INTO STORM SEWERS
AND DITCHES WHICH LEAD TO WATERWAYS. WEAR APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE
CLOTHING TO MINIMIZE CONTACT WITH SKIN. REMOVE ALL SOURCES OF
IGNITION. A VAPOR SUPPRESSING FOAM MAY BE USED RO REDUCE VAPORS.

Handling and Storage Precautions:KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT, SPARKS, AND
FLAME. KEEP AWAY FROM SOURCES OF IGNITION. STORE IN A TIGHTLY
CLOSED CONTAINER. STORE IN A COOL, DRY, WELL-VENTILATED AREA AWAY
FROM INCOMPATIBLE SUBSTANCES. FLAMMABLE S-AREA. WASH THOROUGHLY
AFTER HANDLING. REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND WASH BEFORE REUSE.
Other Precautions:USE ONLY IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA. GROUND AND BOND
CONTAINERS WHEN TRANSFERRING MATERIAL. AVOID CONTACT WITH EYES,
SKIN, AND CLOTHING. EMPTY CONTAINERS RETAIN PRODUCT RESIDUE AND CAN
BE DANGEROUS. DO NOT PRESSURIZE, CUT, WELD, BRAZE, SOLDER, DRILL,
GRIND, OR EXPOSE EMPTY CONTAINERS TO HEAT, SPARKS OR OPEN FLAMES.

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 APPROVED RESPIRATOR WHEN NECESSARY.
Ventilation:USE ADEQUAE GENERAL OR LOCAL EXHAUST VENTILATION TO KEEP
AIRBORNE CONCENTATIONS BELOW THE PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE LIMITS.
Protective Gloves:APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE GLOVES.
Eye Protection:CHEMICAL GOGGLES.
Other Protective Equipment:FACILITIES STORING OR UTILIZING THIS
MATERIAL SHOULD BE EQUIPPED WITH AN EYEWASH FACILITY AND A SAFETY
SHOWER.
Supplemental Safety and Health
FIRST AID CONT: INHALATION: GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY. REMOVE
FROM EXPOSURE TO FRESH AIR IMMEFDIATELY. IF NOT BREATHING, GIVE
ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT, GIVE OXYGEN. GE
T MEDICAL AID. DO NOT USE MOUTH-TO-MOUTH RESPIRATION. IF BRATHING
HAS CEASED APPLY ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION USING OXYGEN
