SECTION IV- FIRE AND EXPLOSION DATA
FLASH POINT (TOC):
LEVEL 3 EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (PRODUCT): LOWER - 1.0 UPPER - 6.0 SEC 04.5
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS:
This product releases Flammable Vapors at well below ambient temperatures and
readily forms flammable mixtures with air exposed to an ignition source. It will
burn in the open or be explosive in confined spaces. Its vapors are heavier than
air and may travel long distances to a point of ignition, and then flash back.
Alkane/chlorine gas mixtures have produced explosions.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
Dry Chemical. CO2. Halogenated Extinguishing Agent. Stop Gas Flow.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES:
Gas fires should not be extinguished unless the gas flow can be stopped
immediately. Allow the fire to burn it self out. If the source cannot be shut
off immediately, all equipment and surfaces exposed to the fire should be cooled
with water to prevent over-heating, flash-backs, or explosions. Control fire
until gas supply can be shut off. Use proper protective equipment. Use fresh air
respirator when exposure to hazardous concentrations of toxic gases is possible.
FIRE FIGHTING:
Use water spray to cool fire exposed surfaces and to protect personnel. Isolate
"fuel" supply from fire. Use foam, dry chemical, or water spray to
extinguish fire. Avoid spraying water directly into storage containers due to
danger of boil over. This liquid is volatile and gives off invisible vapors.
Either the liquid or vapor may settle in low areas or travel some distance along
the ground or surface to ignition sources where they may ignite or explode.
SECTION - V- HEALTH HAZARD DATA
05.20 GENERAL:
This material is an aspiration hazard and defats the skin. Breathing vapors of
high concentrations may cause CNS depression.
EYE CONTACT:
Slightly irritating but does not injure eye tissue.
SKIN CONTACT:
Low order of toxicity. Frequent or prolonged contact may irritate and cause
dermatitis. Skin contact may aggravate an existing dermatitis conditions.
INHALATION:
High vapor/aerosol concentrations (greater than approximately 100 ppm) are
irritating to the eyes and the respiratory tract, may cause headaches,
dizziness, anesthesia, drowsiness, unconsciousness, and other central nervous
system effects, including death.
INGESTION:
Small amounts of this product aspirated into the respiratory system during
ingestion or vomiting may cause mild to severe pulmonary injury, possibly
minimal toxicity.
FIRST AID
EYE CONTACT:
Flush eyes with large amounts of water until irritation subsides. If irritation
persists, get medical attention. SKIN CONTACT: Flush with large amounts of
water; use soap if available. Remove grossly contaminated clothing, including
shoes, and launder before reuse.
INHALATION:
Using proper respiratory protection, immediately remove the affected victim from
exposure. Administer artificial respiration if breathing is stopped. Keep at
rest. Call for prompt medical attention.
INGESTION:
If swallowed, DO Not induce vomiting. Keep at rest. Get prompt medical
attention.
PRECAUTIONS
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS:
Health studies have shown that many hydrocarbons pose potential human health
risks which may vary from person to person. As a precaution, exposure to
liquids, vapors, mists or fumes should be minimized. PERSONAL PROTECTION: For
open systems where contact is likely, wear safety glasses with side shields,
long sleeves, and chemical resistant gloves. Where concentrations in air may
exceed the limits, work practice or other means of exposure reduction are not
adequate, NIOSH/MSHA approved respirators may be necessary to prevent
overexposure by inhalation.
VENTILATION:
The use of mechanical dilution ventilation is recommended whenever this product
is used in a confined space, is heated above ambient temperatures, or is
agitated. (Proposition 65): SEC05 State of California Safe Drinking water and
Toxic enforcement act 1986. Warning: In accordance with the Prop. 65, this
product contains a chemical (s) known to the stat of California to cause cancer,
birth defects and other reproductive harm.
SECTION VI - REACTIVITY DATA 06.20
STABILITY: Stable
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Not applicable
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur.
MATERIALS AND CONDITIONS TO AVOID INCOMPATIBILITY: Strong oxidizing agents.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITON PRODUCTS: None
SECTION VII - SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES SEC07.45 STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE
CONTAINER IS PUCTUREED AND MATERIAL IS RELEASED:
Clean up area by mopping or with absorbent materials and place in closed
container for disposal. Consult Federal, State, and local disposal authorities.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD:
Consult local authorities for proper waste disposal procedures. Empty
de-pressurized containers can not be reused. Cans which are pressurized or
contain liquid must be disposed of in a permitted waste management facility.
Consult Federal, State, and local disposal authorities for approved procedures.
SECTION VIII - PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT TO BE USED SEC08.20 VENTILATION
REQUIREMENT:
Use adequate levels exhaust ventilation. Note: Where carbon monoxide may be
generated, special ventilation may be required. Local exhaust recommended when
appropriate to control employee exposure.
RESPIRATIORY PROTECTION:
Based on contamination level and working limits of the respirator, use a
respirator approved by MOPSJ/MSHA.
EYES:
Face shield and goggles or chemical goggles should be worn.
GLOVES:
Impervious gloves should be worn. Gloves contaminated with the product should be
discarded. Polyfluorinated polyethylene has been suggested.
OTHER CLOTHING EQUIPMENT:
Standard work clothing. Standard work shoes; discard if shoes cannot be
decontaminated. Store contaminated clothing in well ventilated cabinets or
closed containers. Wash contaminated clothing and dry before reuse.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:
In situations where vapor concentrations exceed the recommended exposure limits,
a NIOSH approved organic vapor cartridge or air-supplying respirator should be
worn.
SECTION IX - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS OR OTHER COMMENTS
SEC09.45 HANDLING STORAGE AND DECONTAMINATION PRODEDURES:
When utilizing pressurized containers follow standard safety practices for
handling aerosols.
GENERAL COMMENTS:
Do not store at temperatures above 120 degree F. Odor is not an adequate warning
of potentially hazardous concentrations in air. Releases of these gases may
cause a flammable atmosphere with explosion potential.
PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS:
Please read and follow the directions on the product label. They are your best
guide to using this product in the most effective way, and give the necessary
safety precautions to protect your health.
