None
SECTION 3
--PHYSICAL DATA
APPEARANCE: Colorless to Slightly Amber Liquid
% SOLIDS: 60%
SPECIFIC GRAVITY: 1.21
PHYSICAL STATE: Liquid
SOLUBILITY IN WATER: Soluble
BOILING POINT: 100C/212F
ODOR: Mild Odor
pH: 0.7
SECTION 4
--FIRE AND EXPLOSION DATA
FLASH POINT: Does NOT ignite
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Water spray, carbon dioxide, dry chemical
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: None
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD: At temperatures above 60C/140F acid action
on most metals may release hydrogen, a
highly flammable and explosive gas.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS: Evacuate personnel to a safe area. Keep
containers cool with water spray. Avoid breathing decomposition products. Wear
self-contained breathing apparatus and full body protection.
SECTION 5
--REACTIVITY DATA
STABILITY: Stable up to 110C/230F
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Heating above 110C results in an exothermic
decomposition with rapid release of CO2 gas.
INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS: Avoid contact with oxidizers. This material may be
extremely hazardous in contact with chlorates or nitrates. Contact with
hypochlorites will produce toxic gases. Contact with alkaline materials will
generate heat.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Thermal decomposition may yield oxides of
carbon, nitrogen, and chlorine. Hydrogen gas may be released upon contact with
certain materials.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur.
SECTION 6
--TOXICOLOGICAL PROPERTIES EFFECTS OF ACUTE EXPOSURE
INHALATION: Not a likely route of exposure due to physical properties.
Product has a low vapor pressure at room temperature and is not expected to
present a significant inhalation hazard under ambient conditions. Product can be
irritating to the respiratory tract if inhaled as a mist or if the material is
vaporized.
SKIN: Acute exposure is irritating.
Non-corrosive to skin:
(
As
defined
and tested in accordance with the U.S. OSHA's Hazard
Communication Standard, DOT Hazardous Material Regulations, Canada's WHMIS
regulations and TDG Regulations. Classified as a mild skin irritant as per the
1992 OECD Guideline for testing chemicals. Number 404 "Acute Dermal
Irritation/ Corrosion."
)
EYE: Contact may be painful and irritating.
INGESTION: This product may be harmful or fatal if ingested.
CARCINOGENICITY: Not listed on NTP, IARC, ACGIH.
MUTAGENICITY: This product was found not to be mutagenic when
tested by the Ames Assay, (OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, Sec. 471)
SECTION 7
--PREVENTATIVE MEASURES
GLOVES: Use impervious (rubber, nitrile) gloves.
EYE PROTECTION: Use chemical goggles or full face shield.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Eye bath, safety shower, full
protective clothing.
RESPIRATORY: Avoid breathing vapor and/or mist.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: If current ventilation practices are not
adequate for minimizing exposures, additional ventilation or exhaust systems may
be required.
LEAK AND SPILL PROCEDURE: Small spills may be absorbed with
non-reactive absorbent (sand) and placed in suitable, covered, labeled
containers. Prevent large spills from entering sewers or waterways. Contact
emergency services and supplier for advice.
WASTE DISPOSAL: Review federal, provincial, or state and local
government requirements prior to disposal.
STORAGE REQUIREMENTS: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Keep
container tightly closed. Store in fiberglass, polyethylene, or polypropylene
containers. Do not store in metal containers, especially aluminum. Storage in
certain metal containers at temperatures above 60C/140F may result in hydrogen
gas evolution. Do not store at temperatures above 48C/120F.
SECTION 8
--FIRST AID
INHALATION: Move to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial
respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen and seek medical attention.
SKIN: Immediately flush with mild soap and water for 15 minutes.
Seek medical attention if irritation develops. Remove contaminated clothing and
launder before reuse.
EYE: Immediately flush with water for 15 minutes. Seek medical
attention.
INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting. If concsious, give 3-4
glasses of water to dilute and get immediate care.
