Extinguishing Media – Dry chemical. CO2, halogenated extinguishing agent. Stop gas flow

Special Fire Fighting 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, flashbacks, 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.

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards – 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.

Signs and Symptoms of Exposure:

General: This material is an aspiration hazard and defats skin.  Breathing vapors of high concentration may cause DNS depression.

Eyes— Slightly irritating but does not injure eye tissue.

Skin—Low order of toxicity.  Frequent or prolonged contact may irritate and cause dermatitis. 

Inhalation— High vapor/aerosol concentrations are irritating to the eyes and the respiratory tract. May cause headaches, dizziness, and anesthesia, drowsiness, unconsciousness, and other central nervous system effects, including death.

Ingestion— Small amount of this product aspirated into the respiratory system during ingestion or vomiting may cause mild to severe pulmonary injury, possibly minimal toxicity.

Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated — Skin contact may aggravate an existing dermatitis condition.

Emergency and First Aid Procedures

Eyes— Flush eyes with large amounts of water until irritation subsides. If irritation persists, get medical attention

Skin— Flush with large amounts of water, use soap if available. Remove grossly contaminated clothing, including shoes, and launder before reuse.

Inhalation— Use 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.

Section VII – Precautions For Safe Handling and Use

Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled –

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 cannot 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.

Precautions to be Taken in Handling and Storing –

Do not store at temperatures above 120ºF.  Odor is not an adequate warning of potentially hazardous concentrations in air.  Releases of these gases may cause a flammable atmosphere with explosion potential.

Other Precautions – KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.  Please read and follow directions on the product label.

Section VIII – Control Measures

Respiratory Protection (Specify Type) –

NIOSH/MSHA approved respirators may be necessary to prevent overexposure by inhalation.

Ventilation

Local Exhaust

Adequate

Special

Required when carbon monoxide is generated

Protective Gloves –

Chemical resistant gloves

Eye Protection –

Safety glasses with side shields

Other protective Clothing or Equipment – Standard work clothing, shoes.  Discard shoes if unable to decontaminate.  Store contaminated clothing in well-ventilated cabinets or closed containers.  Wash contaminated clothing and dry before reuse.

Work/Hygienic Practices - Normal.  Wash thoroughly before eating, drinking, smoking, using restrooms, etc.
