| Special Fire Fighting Procedures |
KEEP CONTAINERS COOL WITH WATER SPRAY. POSITIVE PRESSURE, SCBA AND STRUCTURAL FIREFIGHTERS PROTECTIVE CLOTHING MAY PROVIDE LIMITED PROTECTION |
| Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazards |
EMPTY CONTAINERS MAY RETAIN RESIDUE AND CAN BE DANGEROUS. HEATED CONTAINERS MAY RUPTURE. VAPORS CAN TRAVEL TO IGNITION SOURCE AND FLASH BACK. VAPOR EXPLOSION HAZARD INDOORS OUTDOORS, OR IN SEWERS. RUN-OFF TO SEWER MAY CREATE FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD. NOT SENSITIVE TO MECHANICAL IMPACT. MATERIAL MAY BE SENSITIVE TO STATIC DISCHARGE, WHICH COULD RESULT IN FIRE OR EXPLOSION |

| Health Hazards - Acute and Chronic |
[INHAL] HIGH VAPOR OR MIST CONCENTRATIONS MAY BE HARMFUL IF INHALED. HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF VAPOR OR MIST MAY IRRITATE THE RESPIRATORY TRACT (NOSE, G\THROAT, AND LUNGS). HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF VAPOR OR MIST MAY CASUE NAUSEA AND VOMITING. CNS DEPRESSION SUDDEN COLLAPSE, DEEP COMA, AND DEATH. [EYES] DIRECT CONTACT WITH MATERIALS OR EXPOSURE TO VAPORS MAY CAUSE IRRITATION. [SKIN] DIRECT CONTACT OR EXPOSURE TO VAPORS MAY CAUSE IRRITATION [INGEST] THROAT IRRITATION, NAUSEA, VOMITING, AND CNS EFFECTS |

NO |
| Explanation of Carcinogenity |
BASED ON CURRENT INFORMATION THERE IS NO KNOWN CARCINOGENICITY |
| Symptoms of Overexposure |
SEE ABOVE |
| Medical Cond. Aggrevated by Exposure |
INDIVIDUALS WITH PRE-EXISTING LUNG, CARDIAC, CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM OR SKIN DISORDERS MAY HAVE INCREASED SUSCEPTIBILITY TO THE EFFECTS OF EXPOSURE |
| Emergency/First Aid Procedures |
[INHAL] REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION OR OXYGEN AS NEEDED. STAY WITH VICTIM AND GET MED ATTEN. [EYES] IMMEDIATELY FLUSH EYES WITH PLENTY OF WATER, HOLDING EYELIDS APART. FOR 15 MIN. IF IRRITATION OR REDNESS OCCURS MOVE TO FRESH AIR AND GET MED ATTEN. [SKIN] REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND SHOES. WAHS SKIN THOROUGHLY WITH SOAP AND WATER. GET MED ATTEN. [INGEST] GET MED ATTEN. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. IF SPONTANEOUS VOMITING OCCURS, KEEP HEAD BELOW HIPS TO AVOID BREATHING MATERIAL INTO THE LUNGS [NOTE] NO SPECIFIC ANTIDOTE AVAILABLE. TREAT SYMPTOMATICALLY AND SUPPORTIVELY |
| Steps if Material Released/Spilled |
REMOVE ALL IGNITION SOURCES. DO NOT TOUCH OR WALK THROUGH SPILLED MATERIAL. STOP LEAK IF YOU CAN DO IT WITHOUT RISK. WEAR PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AS SPECIFIED. VENTILATE AREA ND AVOID BREAHTING VAPOR OR MIST. A VAPOR SUPPRESSING FOAM MAY BE USED TO REDUCE VAPORS. CONTAIN AWAY FROM SURFACE WATERS AND SHOVEL WITH A CLEAN, NON-SPARKING TOOL INTO SEALABLE CONTAINER FOR DISPOSAL |
| Waste Disposal Method |
DISPOSE IN ACCORDANCE WITH FEDERAL, STATE, PROVINCIAL, AND LOCAL REGULATIONS. REGULATIONS MAY ALSO APPLY TO EMPTY CONTAINERS. THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR PROPER WASTE DISPOSAL LIES WITH THE OWNER OF THE WASTE. CONTACT SAFETY-KLEEN REGARDING RECYCLING OR PROPER DISPOSAL |
| Handling and Storage Precautions |
KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT, SPARKS, OR FLAME. WHERE EXPLOSIVE MIXTURES MAY BE PRESENT, EQUIPMENT SAFE FOR SUCH LOCATIONS SHOULD BE USED. WHEN TRANSFERING MATERIAL, METAL CONTAINERS, INCLUDING TRUCKS AND TANK CARS SHOULD BE GROUNDED AND BONDED. AVOID CONTACT WITH EYES, SKIN, CLOTHING, AND SHOES |
| Other Precautions |
KEEP CONTAINERS TIGHTLY CLOSED WHEN NOT IN USE AND DURING TRANSPORT. DO NOT PRESSURIZE, CUT, WELD, BRAZE, SOLDER, DRILL, GRIND, OR EXPOSE CONTAINERS TO HEAT, FLAME, SPARKS, STATIC ELECTRICITY, OR OTHER SOURCES OF IGNITION |
| Respiratory Protection |
USE NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED RESPIRATORY PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT WHEN CONCENTRATION OF VAPOR OR MIST BELOW APPLICABLE EXPOSURE LIMITS. WHERE ADEQUATE GENERAL VENTILATION IS UNAVAILABLE, USE PROCESS ENCLOSURES, LOCAL EXHAUST VENTILATION, OR OTHER ENGINEERING CONTROLS TO CONTROL AIRBORNE LEVELS BELOW RECOMMENDED EXPOSURE LIMITS |
| Ventilation |
PROVIDE GENERAL VENTILATION TO MAINTAIN CONCENTRATION OF VAPOR OR MIST BELOW APPLICABLE EXPOSURE LIMITS |
| Protective Gloves |
NITRILE, VITRON |
| Eye Protection |
WEAR CHEMICAL GOGGLES |
| Other Protective Equipment |
CHEM RESISTENT BOOTS, APRON, EYE WASH STATION |
| Work Hygenic Practices |
WAHS THOROUGHLY AFTER HANDLING |
