Emergency overview: Routes of entry include eye contact, skin contact, and inhalation. Appearance: White grease. Flash Point: N/A Warning! Target Organs: Eyes, skin, mucous membranes, respiratory tract. Potential Health Effects Eye: Contact may cause slight irritation. Skin: Contact may cause slight irritation. Ingestion: May cause nausea or vomiting. Inhalation: May irritate mucous membranes or respiratory tract. Chronic: Analogous to acute hazards.
Eyes: Immediately flush with running water for at least 15 minutes while holding eyes open. Check for and remove contact lenses. Seek medical attention. Skin: Flush with lukewarm water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing and launder before reuse. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. Ingestion: Upon ingestion, dilute with 2-4 glasses of water or milk. Do not induce vomiting and seek medical attention immediately. Inhalation: Remove victim to fresh air. If victim is not breathing, administer oxygen. If irritation persists, seek medical attention.
General Information: Always wear full protective equipment including self
containing breathing apparatus.
Auto Ignition Temperature: N/A
Flash Point: None.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Hydrogen fluoride.
Carbonyl fluoride.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazards: Hydrogen fluoride and carbonyl fluoride are
toxic when in contact with skin or inhaled. Hydrogen fluoride has an ACGIH TLV value
of 0.5 ppm. Carbonyl fluoride has an ACGIH TLV of 2 ppm and an OSHA TWA of 2 ppm.
Extinguishing Media: Water, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, foam.
Protective Measures: Skin protection for acid gas exposure.
Spills/Leaks: Wear appropriate protective equipment. Contain the spill. Non-essential personnel should be evacuated. Eliminate all sources of ignition and keep area well ventilated. Soak up spill with vermiculate or other inert absorbent materials. Place in appropriate disposal container. Disposal Procedure: According to local, state, and federal regulations.
Handling: Always wear protective equipment appropriate to the task. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Always use adequate ventilation and avoid breathing vapors. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Avoid flames and other sources of ignition. Wash thoroughly after use. Storage: Store closed containers away from combustible materials, flames, or other sources if ignition. Keep out of the reach of children.
Engineering Controls: If exposure limit is exceeded, use a NIOSH approved respirator. Local exhaust should be available at points of emission (50 ft/min). Safety shower and eye wash stations should be readily accessible in work area. Exposure Limits: Not available for product. See below for data on hazardous decomposition products. Chemical Name ACGIH OSHA Hydrogen Fluoride 0.5 ppm (8 hr. TWA) N/A Carbonyl Fluoride 2 ppm 2 ppm Personal Protective Equipment Eyes: Chemical safety goggles or glasses with side shields are required. Skin: As necessary to prevent contact with skin. Clothing: Protective clothing such as long sleeves or a lab coat should be worn. Neoprene or neoprene gloves with cuffs are recommended. When handling heated materials, also be sure to use heat-resistant gloves, boots and face protection. Respirators: If exposure limit is reached or exceeded, or ventilation is inadequate, a NIOSH approved respirator with acid gas cartridges should be used.
