First Aid Measures

Ingestion
Seek medical assistance.
Inhalation
Move victim to fresh air. Apply artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult.
Skin
Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash skin with soap and water. Flush with running water for at least 20 minutes
Eyes
Flush with running water for at least 20 minutes.

Handling and Storage

Storage
Keep tightly closed. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Store in a cool dry place.

Hazards Identification

Inhalation
Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. May cause irritation or burns.
Skin
May cause irritation or burns.
Eyes
See Skin.
Hazards
Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Vapor explosion hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers.

Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

Personal Protection
Wear appropriate government approved respirator, chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles, other protective clothing.
Respirators
Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).
Exposure Effects
Flammable. Irritant. Irritating to eyes, respiratory system and skin.

Fire Fighting Measures

Flash Point
35
Fire Fighting
Extinguish using Water spray. Carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder, or appropriate foam. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes.
Fire Potential
HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames.

Accidental Release Measures

Small spills/leaks
Make no contact with the spilled material. ELIMINATE all ignition sources and ground all equipment. Stop leak if you can do it without risk. A vapor suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors. Absorb or cover with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers. Use clean non-sparking tools to collect absorbed material.

Stability and Reactivity

Incompatibilities
Strong oxidizing agents.
Decomposition
Carbon monoxide, Carbon dioxide.
Combustion Products
Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases.
