SECTION 3 : HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION |
Emergency Overview: | Irritant. |
Route of Exposure: | Eyes. Skin. Inhalation. Ingestion. |
Potential Health Effects: | |
Eye: | Causes eye irritation. |
Skin: | Causes skin irritation. |
Inhalation: | Prolonged or excessive inhalation may cause respiratory tract irritation. |
Ingestion: | May be harmful if swallowed. May cause vomiting. |
Chronic Health Effects: | Prolonged or repeated contact may cause skin irritation. |
Signs/Symptoms: | Overexposure may cause headaches and dizziness. |
Target Organs: | Eyes. Skin. Respiratory system. Digestive system. |
Aggravation of Pre-Existing Conditions: | None generally recognized. |
SECTION 4 : FIRST AID MEASURES |
Eye Contact: | Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 to 20 minutes. Ensure adequate flushing of the eyes by separating the eyelids with fingers. Remove contacts if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Get medical attention, if irritation or symptoms of overexposure persists. |
Skin Contact: |
Immediately wash skin with soap and plenty of water. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists. |
Inhalation: | If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration or give oxygen by trained personnel. Seek immediate medical attention. |
Ingestion: | If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. |
SECTION 5 : FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES |
Flash Point: | None. |
Lower Flammable/Explosive Limit: | Not applicable. |
Upper Flammable/Explosive Limit: | Not applicable. |
Extinguishing Media: | Use alcohol resistant foam, carbon dioxide, dry chemical, or water fog or spray when fighting fires involving this material. |
Protective Equipment: | As in any fire, wear Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA), MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full protective gear. |
|
SECTION 6 : ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES |
Personal Precautions: | Evacuate area and keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering the spill area. Use proper personal protective equipment as listed in Section 8. |
Environmental Precautions: | Avoid runoff into storm sewers, ditches, and waterways. |
Methods for containment: | Contain spills with an inert absorbent material such as soil or sand. Prevent from spreading by covering, diking or other means. Provide ventilation. |
Methods for cleanup: | Clean up spills immediately observing precautions in the protective equipment section. Place into a suitable container for disposal. Provide ventilation. After removal, flush spill area with soap and water to remove trace residue. |
SECTION 7 : HANDLING and STORAGE |
Handling: | Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing vapor and contact with eyes, skin and clothing. |
Storage: | Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated area away from sources of heat, combustible materials, and incompatible substances. Keep container tightly closed when not in use. |
Hygiene Practices: | Wash thoroughly after handling. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Avoid inhaling vapor or mist. |
SECTION 8 : EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION - EXPOSURE GUIDELINES |
Engineering Controls: | Use appropriate engineering control such as process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. Good general ventilation should be sufficient to control airborne levels. Where such systems are not effective wear suitable personal protective equipment, which performs satisfactorily and meets OSHA or other recognized standards. Consult with local procedures for selection, training, inspection and maintenance of the personal protective equipment. |
Eye/Face Protection: | Wear appropriate protective glasses or splash goggles as described by 29 CFR 1910.133, OSHA eye and face protection regulation, or the European standard EN 166. |
Skin Protection Description: | Chemical-resistant gloves and chemical goggles, face-shield and synthetic apron or coveralls should be used to prevent contact with eyes, skin or clothing. |
Respiratory Protection: | A NIOSH approved air-purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or canister may be permissible under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. Protection provided by air purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator if there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or any other circumstances where air purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection. |
Other Protective: | Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. |
