Health Hazards Information - Recommended Personal Protective Equipment: Protective goggles;
gloves; Symptoms Following Exposure: INHALATION causes irritation of upper respiratory tract;
central nervous system stimulation followed by depression of varying degrees ranging from dizziness,
headache, and incoordination. ASPIRATION causes severe lung irritation with coughing, gagging,
dyspnea, substernal distress, and rapidly developing pulmonary edema; later, signs of
bronchopneumonia and pneumonitis; acute onset of central nervous system excitement followed by
depression. INGESTION causes irritation of mucous membranes of throat, esophagus, and stomack
simulation followed by depression of central nervous system; irregular heartbeat; General Treatment
for Exposure: Seek medical attention. INHALATION: maintain respiration; give oxygen if needed.
ASPIRATION: enforce bed rest; administer oxygen. INGESTION: do not induce vomiting; lavage
carefully if appreciable quantity was ingested; guard against aspiration into lungs. EYES: wash with
copious quantity of water. SKIN: wipe off and wash with soap and water; Toxicity by Inhalation
(Threshold Limit Value): No single TLV applicable; Short-Term Inhalation Limits: 500 ppm for 30
min.; Toxicity by Ingestion: Grade 2, LD,, 0.5 to 5 glkg; Late Toxicity: None; Vapor (Gas) In-itant
Characteristics: Vapors cause a slight smarting of the eyes or respiratory system if present in high
concentrations. The effect is temporary; Liquid or Solid Irritant Characteristics: Minimum hazard. If
spilled on clothing and allowed to remain, may cause smarting and reddening of the skin; Odor
ilreshold: 0.25 ppm.
Fire Hazards - Flash Point (deg. F): C 0 CC; Flammable Limits in Air (%): 1.1 - 8.7; Fire
Extinguishing Agents: Dry chemical, foam, or carbon dioxide; Fire Extinguishing Agents Not To Be
Used: Water may be ineffective; Special Hazards of Combustion Products: None; Behavior in Fire:
Vapor is heavier than air and may travel considerable distance to source of ignition and flash back;
Ignition Temperature : No data; Electrical Hazard: Class I, Group D; Burning Rate: 4 mm/min.
Chemical Reactivity - Reactivity with Water: No reaction; Reactivity with Common Materials: No
reactions; Stability During Tmport: Stable; Neutmlizing Agents forAcidsand ktics: Not pertinent;
Polymerizm'on: Not pertinent; Inhibitor of Polymerization: Not pertinent.
