Flash Point: 40.6 deg C. Danger! Flammable liquid. Strong oxidizer. Contact with other material may cause a fire. Harmful if inhaled. Corrosive. May become violently reactive or explosive exposed to heat, shock or friction. May be harmful if swallowed or absorbed through the skin. Target Organs: None. Potential Health Effects Eye: Causes eye irritation and burns. Vapor is highly irritating to the eyes. Skin: Causes severe skin irritation and burns. May be harmful if absorbed through the skin. Ingestion: May cause severe gastrointestinal tract irritation with nausea, vomiting and possible burns. May be harmful if swallowed. Inhalation: May cause burns to the respiratory tract. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Vapor or mist is irritating to the mucous membranes and upper respiratory tract. Chronic: Not available. **** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES **** Eyes: Get medical aid immediately. Do NOT allow victim to rub or keep eyes closed. Extensive irrigation is required (at least 30 minutes). Skin: Get medical aid immediately. Immediately flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Discard contaminated clothing in a manner which limits further exposure. Ingestion: Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid immediately. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. Inhalation: Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. DO NOT use mouth-to-mouth respiration. Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively. **** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES **** General Information: As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. Vapors can travel to a source of ignition and flash back. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. This material is an explosion hazard when exposed to heat, mechanical shock, or friction. Flammable Liquid. Vapors may be heavier than air. They can spread along the ground and collect in low or confined areas. Extinguishing Media: Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. Use flooding quantities of water. **** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES **** General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8. Spills/Leaks: Absorb spill with inert material, (e.g., dry sand or earth), then place into a chemical waste container. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Remove all sources of ignition. Provide ventilation. **** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE **** Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Use only in a well ventilated area. Material is heat, shock and/or friction sensitive. Use care in handling and storage. Ground and bond containers when transferring material. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Do not ingest or inhale. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames. Storage: Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of ignition. Keep container closed when not in use. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. **** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION **** Engineering Controls: Use adequate ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low.
