SECTION IV - FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA

 

FLASH POINT:  1oF                                                                               METHOD USED:  Closed Cup                              

 

FLAMMABLE LIMITS IN AIR BY VOLUME -    LOWER:  1.2         UPPER:  12.8 

 

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:   Foam, alcohol foam, CO2, dry chemical, water fog.

 

SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES:  water spray may be ineffective.  Water spray may be used to cool closed containers to prevent pressure build-up and possible rupture of containers.  Water fog is preferred.  Fire fighters should wear self contained breathing apparatus.

 

 

 

UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS:  Extremely flammable liquid and vapor!  Vapors may cause flash fire.  Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame.  Do not smoke.  Extinguish all flames and pilot lights, and turn off stoves, heaters, electric motors and other sources of ignition during use and until all vapors are gone.  Closed containers may explode when exposed to extreme heat.

 

SECTION V – REACTIVITY DATA

CONDITIONS TO AVOID:  None

 

INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID):

Avoid contact with strong alkalies, strong mineral acids or strong oxidizing agents.

 

HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION OR BYPRODUCTS:

Dry material exposed to high heat such as welding or flame-cutting operations may release carbon monoxide.

 

HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION

Will not occur.

 

SECTION VI – HEALTH HAZARD DATA

 

INHALATION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE

Effects from vapors or spray mists in poorly ventilated areas may include irritation of the mucus membranes.  Inhalation of vapors or spray mists may also result in nausea, dizziness, breathing difficulty, headaches, and loss of coordination.

 

SKIN AND EYE CONTACT HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE

Eye Contact:  Causes severe eye irritation.  Symptoms include redness, tearing, burning, and visual disturbances

Skin Contact:  May cause skin irritation or sensitivity.  Symptoms include redness, cracks, swelling, and dermatitis.

 

SKIN ABSORPTION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE

May be harmful if absorbed through the skin.  Symptoms include nausea, headache, irritation, swelling, and redness of affected areas.

 

INGESTION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE

Harmful or fatal if swallowed.  Symptoms include gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.

 

HEALTH HAZARDS (ACUTE AND CHRONIC)

Inhalation-(ACUTE):  May cause dizziness, breathing difficulty, headaches & loss of coordination.

(CHRONIC):  Repeated exposure to high vapor concentration may cause irritation of the respiratory system and permanent brain and nervous system damage.  Eye-contact- Severe irritation, tearing, redness, and blurred vision.  Skin contact- Can dry and de-fat skin causing cracks, irritation, and dermatitis.  Ingestion- Can cause gastrointestinal irritation, vomiting, and diarrhea.

 

CARCINOGENICITY

    NTP CARCINOGEN:  No       IARC MONOGRAPHS:  No            OSHA REGULATED: Yes

 

MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE

Unknown

 

 

 

EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID

 

Inhalation

Do not induce vomiting.  Can cause chemical pneumonitis and pulmonary edema if material is aspirated into the lungs.  Call physician or emergency response agency immediately. 

Eye contact

Flush eyes with large amounts of water for  at  least 15 minutes.  Seek medical attention.

Skin contact:

Flush with water followed by washing with soap and water.

Ingestion

Remove victim to fresh air.  Apply artificial respiration and other supportive measures as required.  Seek medical attention.

 

SECTION VII – PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE

 

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE

Keep containers closed when not in use.  Do not store above 120oF.  Store large quantities only in buildings designed and protected to comply with OSHA 1910.106.  Keep out of reach of children.  Vapors of this product may travel long distances during use.  Take adequate precautions to prevent potential explosive ignition of these vapors.

 

OTHER PRECAUTIONS

Since containers of this material may contain residues(vapor, liquid, or solid) when “empty” , all hazard precautions given in this data sheet must be observed.  Read and understand safety precautions before using this product.  Keep closure tight and container upright to prevent leakage.  Avoid breathing sanding dust.  Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling this product can be harmful or fatal.

 

SECTION VIII – CONTROL MEASURES

 

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION

Overexposure to vapors may be prevented by using ventilation controls, vapor exhaust or fresh air entry.  NIOSH/MSHA approved (TC-23C) paint spray or air supplied (TC-19C) respirators may also reduce exposure.  Read respirator manufacturer’s  instructions carefully to determine the type of airborne contaminants which the respirator is effective

 

VENTILATION

Provide sufficient mechanical ventilation to keep the concentration of ingredients listed in section2 below the lowest suggested exposure limits.

 

PROTECTIVE GLOVES

Gloves should be constructed of nitrite, neoprene, or latex, or impervious to the ingredients listed in Section 2.

 

EYE PROTECTION

Use chemical safety glasses, goggles or face shields for protection.

 

OTHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING OR EQUIPMENT

To prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact, wear gloves, clothing, and footwear, which are designed for protection when using this material.

 

WORK / HYGIENIC PRACTICES

Wash thoroughly after handling.  If clothing or footwear is contaminated, discard or launder.

 

WARNING:  This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

 

 

 

SECTION IX – SPILLAGE OR LEAK PROCEDURE

 

 

STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED

Dike and contain spill with inert material (sand, earth, etc.).  Transfer liquid to containers for recovery or disposal.  Do not allow spilled material to enter drains or sewer systems.  Remove all sources of ignition.  Provide maximum ventilation.  Do not allow personnel to enter spill area if they are not using proper protective gear as outlined in Section 8.

 

WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD

Dispose of waste in strict accordance with all local, state, and federal regulations.
