Clear, colorless liquid. Warning! Flammable liquid and vapor. Potential health effects (acute and chronic): Causes Eye Irritation. Causes respiratory tract and digestive tract irritation. Harmful or fatal if swallowed. May cause central nervous system depression. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and corneal damage. May cause skin sensitization. May cause cyanosis of the extremities. Breathing vapors may cause drowsiness and dizziness. May cause central nervous system depression. May cause liver and kidney damage. Prolonged or repeated contact may dry the skin and cause irritation or defatting of the skin. Aspiration hazard if swallowed. Can enter lungs and cause damage. Poison. May be absorbed through intact skin. Vapor harmful. This substance has caused adverse reproductive and fetal effects in animals. Target Organs: kidneys, liver, central nervous system, respiratory system, eyes, skin. Symptoms of exposure: Effects of eye exposure: Causes eye irritation. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and corneal damage. Vapors may cause eye irritation. Effects of skin contact: May cause skin irritation. May cause skin sensitization. Prolonged and/or repeated contact may cause defatting of the skin and dermatitis. May cause cyanosis of the extremities. May be absorbed through the skin. Effects of ingestion: May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause liver and kidney damage. May cause central nervous system depression, characterized by excitement, followed by headache, dizziness, drowsiness, and nausea. Advanced stages may cause collapse, unconsciousness, coma and possible death due to respiratory failure. Aspiration hazard. Aspiration of material into the lungs may cause chemical pneumonitis, which may be fatal. Effects of inhalation: Inhalation of high concentrations may cause central nervous system effects characterized by nausea, headache, dizziness, unconsciousness and coma. Causes respiratory tract irritation. Aspiration may lead to pulmonary edema. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. May cause motor incoordination and speech abnormalities. May cause liver and kidney damage. Overexposure may cause dizziness, tremors, restlessness, rapid heart beat, increased blood pressure, hallucinations, acidosis, kidney failure. Chronic Effects: Chronic exposure may produce anemia, leukocytosis, cloudy swelling, and fatty degeneration of the viscera. May cause liver and kidney damage. May cause fetal effects. May cause cardiac sensitization and severe heart abnormalities.
Emergency and first aid procedures:
Get medical assistance for all cases of over-exposure.
Skin:
Get medical aid if irritation develops or persists. Flush skin with
plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes, while removing
contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash thoroughly before reusing.
Eyes:
Get medical aid immediately. Immediately flush thoroughly with
water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and
lower eyelids. Do not allow victim to rub or keep eyes closed.
Inhalation:
Get medical aid immediately. Remove to fresh air immediately.
Artificial respiration if breathing has stopped. If breathing
is difficult, give oxygen. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
If breathing has ceased, apply artificial respiration using oxygen
and a suitable mechanical device such as a bag and a mask.
Ingestion:
Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of
milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Get medical aid immediately.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively.
Flash Point....................n/a Autoignition Temperature: . . .n/a Explosion Limits . . . . . . . n/a NFPA Rating: (estimated) Health: 1; Flammability: 3; Instability: 0 Fire Extinguishing Media: For small fires use dry chemical, CO2, or "alcohol" foam, water spray to cool fire-exposed containers and disperse vapor; water on fire itself may be ineffective. For large fires, use water spray, fog or alcohol-resistant foam. Do NOT use straight streams of water. Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out. Firefighting Procedure: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH approved or equivalent, full protective gear. Fire and explosion hazards: Dangerous fire and explosion hazard. Vapors may form an explosive mixture with air. Vapor can travel distance to ignition source and flash back. During a fire, thermal decomposition or combustion may generate irritating and highly toxic gases. Flammable mixture. Can release vapors that form explosive mixtures with air. Hot organic chemical vapors or mists are susceptible to sudden spontaneous combustion when mixed with air. Material is lighter than water and a fire may be spread by the use of water. Containers may explode in the heat of a fire. Vapors may be heavier than air. They can spread along the ground and collect in low or confined areas.
Spill Response:
General Information: Wear suitable protective equipment listed under
exposure/personal protection, including self contained breathing apparatus.
Spills/Leaks: Avoid runoff into storm sewers and ditches which lead to
waterways. Avoid all sources of ignition. Absorb spill with an absorbent,
non-combustible material such as earth, sand or vermiculite and place in
suitable container for proper disposal, using a spark-proof tool. A vapor
suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors, but may not prevent ignition
in closed spaces.
Handling: Use only in a well-ventilated area. Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Ground and bond containers when transferring material. Use spark-proof tools and explosion proof equipment. Avoid contact with heat, sparks and flame. Empty containers may contain residue - do not pressurize, or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames. Do not take internally. Eye wash and safety equipment should be readily available. Storage: Keep away from sources of ignition. Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a flammables area, away from incompatible materials. Store in cool, dry, well ventilated area.
An eyewash facility and a safety shower should be available. Use adequate
general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below
the permissible exposure limits.
