Emergency overview: Causes eye irritation; may cause allergic skin reaction; may case skin irritation. Appearance: Clear liquid Flash Point: 320°F Eye: May cause moderate eye irritation and/or moderate corneal injury. Skin: May cause irritation with local redness. Reaction may be more severe on abraded skin or on prolonged contact. Repeated contact may produce skin burns, accompanied by pain, severe local redness, swelling and tissue damage. May cause an allergic skin reaction. Absorption of harmful amounts of the chemical is unlikely due to skin contact. Ingestion: Small amounts swallowed in normal handling operations are not likely to cause injury, due to low toxicity. Howeverk large amounts swallowed may be harmful. Inhalation: Vapor from heated material may cause irritation. Chronic: No information available.
Eyes: Flush eyes with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes; seek medical attention promptly. Skin: Wash skin with copious amounts of water. Wash clothing before reuse. Dispose of contaminated shoes and non-washable items. Ingestion: If swallowed, seek medical attention. Do not induce vomiting unless instructed to do so by medical personnel. Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If symptoms occur, seek medical attention. Notes to Physician: For burns, decontaminate skin area, then treat as any thermal burn. Additional washing of the are with mild non-abrasive soap and plenty of warm water for at least 15 minutes may be indicated. Treat symptomatically and supportively.
General Information: Flash point: 320° F (Pensky Martens Closed Cup, ASTM D-93) Autoignition Temperature: Not available Flammability Limits: Lower: Not available Upper: Not available Hazardous Combustion Products: Phenolic compounds, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide. Other information: In fire situation, gas generation may cause rupture of container. Burning without sufficient oxygen may produce dense smoke. Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide, water fog or fine water spray. Do not use direct water stream or fire may spread. Alcohol resistant foams are preferred. General purpose synthetic foams or protein foams will be less effective. Protective Equipment: Protective Equipment/Clothing: Wear a NIOSH approved positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus and firefighter turnout gear. Remove non-emergency personnel from the area.
General Information: Isolate the area. Keep unnecessary personnel away. Wear appropriate protective clothing. Spills/Leaks: Do not allow to enter ditches, sewers, waterways and/or groundwater. Prevent soil contamination. Absorb spilled materials with inert materials such as sand. Collect in suitable containers and label for removal. Use soap and hot water to remove residual material.
Handling: Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling Storage: Store in original container in cool, dry areal.
Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation is recommended. Exposure Limits: None known. OSHA Vacated PELs: None known. Personal Protective Equipment: Eyes: Use chemical splash goggles. Skin: If skin is cut or scratched, use chemically resistant gloves for even brief exposure. Wash hands thoroughly. Remove contaminated clothing immediately and launder before reuse. Clothing: Remove contaminated clothing immediately and launder before reuse. Respirators: Not required under most conditions. However, if discomfort is experienced use an appropriate NIOSH approved air-purifying respirator.
Physical State: Liquid Appearance: Clear Odor: Ether-like pH: n/a Vapor Pressure: 5.6mm Hg @ 20°C Vapor Density: n/a Evaporation Rate: n/a Viscosity: 30-60 @25° C Boiling Point: >225° C @ 760mm Hg Freezing/Melting Point: n/a Autoignition Temperature: b.a Flash Point: 320° F Decomposition Temperature: n/a Explosion Limits: Lower: n/a Upper: n/a Solubility in water: 11.0 wt% Specific Gravity/Density: 1.14 Molecular Formula: n/a Molecular Weight: n/a Epoxide Equivalent Weight: 175-205 g/eq Epoxide Percentage: 21.0-24.6 Volatile Content: 0.5 wt%
Chemical Stability: Stable Conditions to Avoid: Temperatures above 350°C. At temperatures above 350°C violent decomposition may occur, producing gas generation and rapid increase in pressure in closed systems. Incompatibility with Other Materials: Oxidizing agents, acids, bases, amines Hazardous Decomposition of Products: Gases will be released during decomposition. The actual decomposition products will depend upon temperature, oxygen supply, and the presence of other materials. Possible decomposition products include phenolics, carbon monoxide, and water. Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur by itself. However, masses of more than 1 pound of product, when combined with an aliphatic amine, will cause an exothermic irreversible polymerization with considerable heat build up possible.
