Extinguishing Media – Water spray, water fog, carbon dioxide, dry chemical, alcohol foam.  Water may be ineffective but should be used to cool fire-exposed structures and vessels.  DO NOT USE direct water stream.

Fire Fighting ProceduresEvacuate area of unprotected personnel.  Wear protect clothing including NIOSH approved self-contained breathing apparatus.  Remain upwind of fire to avoid hazardous vapors and decomposition products.  Use water spray to cool fire–exposed containers and disperses vapors.  If container is not properly cooled, it can rupture in the heat of a fire do not use direct water stream.  May spread fire.  Run off from fire control may cause pollution.

Fire and Explosion HazardsFLAMMABLE LIQUID.  Vapors are heavier than air.  Vapors may settle in low or confined areas, or travel long distances along the ground or surface to an ignition source where they may ignite, flashback, or explode.  Keep away from heat, sparks, flames or other sources of ignition (e.g., static electricity, pilot lights, mechanical/electrical equipment).

Signs and Symptoms of Exposure:

Eyes— Causes moderate to severe irritation.  Liquid contact may cause: burning sensation, blurred vision, inflammation, swelling redness, tearing.  Corneal injury may occur.  Vapors are also irritation.

Skin—May cause mild irritation.  Contact may cause: stinging, pain, and sensitization.  Prolonged and repeated contact with skin can cause defatting and drying of the skin which may result in skin irritation and dermatitis.  Prolonged and repeated exposure may cause: redness, cracking, scaling.

Inhalation— may cause moderate irritation.  Vapors may irritate: nose, throat, respiratory tract.  Inhalation overexposure may lead to central nervous system depression producing effects such as headaches, dizziness, incoordination, lightheadedness, nausea, drowsiness, staggering gait, narcotic effects, unconsciousness, coma, death.

Ingestion— May cause moderate irritation. May cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, cramps, abdominal pain, central nervous system depression.  Excitement, headache, dizziness, drowsiness, kidney damage.  Advance stages may cause: collapse, unconsciousness, coma, possible death due to respiratory failure.  Small amounts of liquid aspirated into the lungs during ingestion or from vomiting may cause chemical pneumonitis or pulmonary edema (Isopropyl alcohol’s) lethal dose for humans is estimated at 250 ml.

Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated – Eye disorders.  Skin disorders.  Liver disorders. Kidney disorders.  Impaired pulmonary function.

Emergency and First Aid Procedures. 

Eyes—.Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while holding eyelids open.  Tilt head to avoid contamination unaffected eye.  Get immediate medical attention.

Skin—Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.  Get medical attention immediately.  Do not reuse clothing and shoes until cleaned.  Wash with soap and water.  Do not apply oils or ointments unless ordered by the physician.

Inhalation— Remove to fresh air.  If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen.  If not breathing give artificial respiration, preferably mouth to mouth.  GET MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.

Ingestion— If swallowed, call a physician immediately.  DO NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by a physician.  Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.  If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep head below hips to prevent aspiration of liquid into the lungs.

Section VII – Precautions For Safe Handling and Use

Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled.  FLAMMABLE LIQUID.  Eliminate all sources of ignition.  Evacuate unprotected personnel from area.  Maintain adequate ventilation.  Follow personal protective equipment recommendations found in Section VIII.  Never exceed any occupational exposure limit.  Shut off source of leak if safe to do so.  Use water spray to control vapor.  A vapor suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors.  Contain spill, place into drums for proper disposal.  Soak up residue with non-flammable absorbent material.  DO NOT use sawdust or other cellulose-type material.  Place in non-leaking containers for immediate disposal.  Flush remaining area with water to remove trace residue and dispose of properly.  Avoid direct discharge to sewers and surface waters.  Notify authorities if entry occurs.  Prevent entry into basements, low areas, or confined areas.  Use non-sparking tools and equipment.  For large spills: Water spray may reduce vapor, but may not prevent ignition in closed spaces.

Waste Disposal Method –Dispose of in a permitted hazardous waste management facility following all local, state, and federal regulations.

Precautions to be Taken in Handling and Storing –Empty containers retain product residue (vapor, dust, or liquid) and can be dangerous.  DO NOT pressurize, cut weld, braze, solder drill, grind, or exposure such containers to heat, flame, sparks, static electricity, or other source of ignition.  Store in a cool, well ventilated area away from all sources of ignition and out of direct sunlight.  Store in a dry location away from heat.  Keep away from incompatible materials.  Keep containers tightly closed.  Do not store in unlabeled or mislabeled containers.  Small quantities of peroxides can form on prolonged storage.  Exposure to light and/or air significantly increases the rate of peroxide formation.  If evaporated to a residue, the mixture of peroxides and isopropanol may explode when exposed to heat or shock.  Periodically test for peroxide formation on long-term storage.  Addition of water or appropriate reducing materials will lessen peroxide formation.  Do not store or handle in aluminum equipment at temperatures above 122ºF
