Section 4. Fire and Explosion Data
|
|
Flash Point: 225
°F (107
°C)
Extinguishing Media: For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon
dioxide (CO2). For large fires, use fog or regular foam.
Unusual Fire or Explosion Hazards: Vapors are heavier than air and
may collect in low lying areas. Container may explode in heat of
fire. Exposure to flames or arc welding can produce highly toxic gases
due to the thermal decomposition or combustion of the product. (see
section 5)
Fire Fighting Procedures: Since fire may produce toxic thermal
decomposition products, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus with a
full face piece operated in pressure-demand or positive-pressure mode.
Apply cooling water to sides of container until well after fire is out.
Do not release fire water runoff to sewers or water ways.

Section 5. Reactivity Data
|
|
Stability: Is stable at room temperature in closed containers
under normal storage and handling conditions.
Hazardous Polymerization: can not occur.
Incompatibility: Is incompatible with strong acids and strong oxidizers.
Hazardous Products of Decomposition: Thermal decomposition can
produce carbon monoxide (CO)and oxides of nitrogen. May form peroxides of unknown stability.

FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with a directed stream of water
for at least 15 minutes, forcibly holding eyelids apart to ensure
complete irrigation of all eye and lid tissue. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION
Skin: Quickly remove contaminated clothing.
Wash contaminated areas with plenty of soap and water. A soothing
ointment may be applied to irritated skin after thorough
cleansing. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION.
Inhalation: Remove exposed person to fresh air and support
breathing if necessary.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Give 1 to 2 cups of milk or
water to drink. If vomiting is inevitable, prevent aspiration by
keeping the victims head below the knees. DO NOT GIVE ANYTHING BY
MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
Exposure Limits: have not been established for this
material.
Dermal LD50: 2000 mg/kg (rabbit)
Oral LD50: 700 mg/kg (rats)

Section 7. Employee Protection Recommendations
|
|
Goggles: Wear a face shield (8 in. minimum) per OSHA eye and face
protection regulations (20 CFR 1910.133).
Respirator: Because of the low vapor pressure,
ventilation is usually sufficient to keep the vapors below the TLV at room
temperatures. Exceptions are when the material is sprayed or heated.
If airborne concentrations would exceed the TLV, follow OSHA respirator
regulations (29 CFR 1910.134) and if necessary wear MSHA/NIOSH-approved
respirator. If inadequate ventilation in confined spaces, use supplied
air respirator or self contained breathing apparatus with a full face piece
operated in pressure demand or positive-pressure mode.
|
|
|
Section 8. Spill and Leak Procedures
|
|
Notify safety personnel, isolate and ventilate the area. Stay up
wind. Remove all ignition sources. For small spills, absorb with
sand or other absorbents and place suitable containers for later
disposal. For large spills, dike ahead for a later disposal or
reclamation. For disposal, follow applicable federal, state, and
local regulations.
|
|
|
Section 9. Special Precautions
|
|
Storage: Prevent physical damage to containers. Store in steel
drums, in a cool, dry, well ventilated area, away from sunlight and
incompatibles, and food.
