Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:
First Aid
First Aid: INHALATION: If adverse effects occur, remove to
uncontaminated area. Give artificial respiration if not breathing.
Get immediate medical attention. SKIN CONTACT: Wash skin with soap
and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated
clothing and shoes. Get medical attention, if needed. Thoroughly
clean and dry contaminated clothing and shoes before reuse. EYE
CONTACT: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.
Then get immediate medical attention. INGESTION: If a large amount
is swallowed, get medical attention.
Fire Fighting
Flash Point:<0 F (<-18 C) (CC)
Autoignition Temp:968 F (520 C)
Lower Limits:2.6%
Upper Limits:11.1%
Extinguishing Media:alcohol resistant foam, carbon dioxide, regular dry
chemical, water Large fires: Use alcohol-resistant foam or flood
with fine water spray.
Fire Fighting Procedures:Move container from fire area if it can be
done without risk. Cool containers with water spray until well
after the fire is out. Stay away from the ends of tanks. For fires
in cargo or storage area: Cool containers with water from unmanned
hose holder or monitor nozzles until well after fire is out. If
this is impossible then take the following precautions: Keep
unnecessary people away, isolate hazard area and deny entry. Let
the fire burn. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from
venting safety device or any discoloration of tanks due to fire.
For tank, rail car or tank truck: Evacuation radius: 800 meters
(1/2 mile). Water may be ineffective.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:Severe fire hazard. Moderate explosion
hazard. Vapor/air mixtures are explosive. The vapor is heavier than
air. Vapors or gases may ignite at distant ignition sources and
flash back.
Accidental Release
Spill Release Procedures:Avoid heat, flames, sparks and other sources
of ignition. Remove sources of ignition. Stop leak if possible
without personal risk. Reduce vapors with water spray. Small
spills: Absorb with sand or other non-combustible material. Collect
spilled material in appropriate container for disposal. Large
spills: Dike for later disposal. Keep unnecessary people away,
isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind and keep out of low
areas.
Neutralizing Agent:
Handling
Handling and Storage Precautions:Store and handle in accordance with
all current regulations and standards. Subject to storage
regulations: U.S. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.106. Grounding and bonding
required. Keep separated from incompatible substances.
Other Precautions:
Exposure Controls
Respiratory Protection:Under conditions of frequent use or heavy
exposure, respiratory protection may be needed. Respiratory
protection is ranked in order from minimum to maximum. Consider
warning properties before use. Any chemical cartridge respirator
with organic vapor cartridge(s). Any chemical cartridge respirator
with a full facepiece and organic vapor cartridge(s). Any
air-purifying respirator with a full facepiece and an organic vapor
canister. For Unknown Concentrations or Immediately Dangerous to
Life or Health - Any supplied-air respirator with full facepiece
and operated in a pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode
in combination with a separate escape supply. Any self-contained
breathing apparatus with a full facepiece.
Ventilation:Provide local exhaust or process enclosure ventilation
system. Ventilation equipment should be explosion-resistant if
explosive concentrations of material are present. Ensure compliance
with applicable exposure limits.
Protective Gloves:Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves.
Eye Protection:Wear splash resistant safety goggles. Provide an
emergency eye wash fountain and quick drench shower in the
immediate work area.
Other Protective Equipment:Wear appropriate chemical resistant
clothing.
