| Class D, Division 2B--Toxic
Materials |
| Skin & Eye Irritation: |
Skin & eye irritant |
| Skin Sensitization: |
Not reported |
| Mutagenicity: |
Not reported |
| Toxic Synergistic Products: |
Carbon tetrachloride |
| Other Toxic Effects: |
Respiratory and digestive tract irritant. May cause
nausea, dizziness, headache even convulsions and unconsciousness. Inhalation may
contribute to conditions of emphysema/bronchitis. May cause burns and blisters
to digestive tract. Aspiration of fluids into lungs may cause chemical
pneumonitis. Aspiration caused death in rats. Ingestion can lead to
blindness/death. Cumulative systemic poison. Possible allergic reaction. Cardiac
depression. May affect liver/kidney. Possible CNS disturbance, involving
paralysis of skeletal muscles affecting the ability to breathe, circulatory
shock and convulsions. Can cross placental barrier, narcotic effect. Ethylene
oxides (EtO) may be present in minute amounts in headspace of container and may
escape to atmosphere when opened. EtO is considered to be a carcinogen and
reproductive toxin. Its concentration is judged to be less than 0.1%. Cancer
suspect nitrosamines may be formed if product is mixed with nitrites or nitrous
acid. |

7. FIRST AID MEASURES |
| |
| Skin Contact: |
Wash affected area with soap and water for at least
15 minutes. Remove and clean contaminated clothing. Seek medical attention if
irritation develops or persists. |
| Eye Contact: |
Flush with water immediately for at least 15 minutes
by holding eye open while flushing. Seek immediate medical attention. |
| Inhalation: |
Remove victim from area to fresh air. Apply
artificial respiration if breathing has stopped. If difficulty breathing,
administer oxygen. Seek immediate medical attention. |
| Ingestion: |
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person. Do not induce vomiting. Give water. Seek immediate medical aid. |
| Advice to Physician: |
No known antidote. |
| |
8. PREVENTATIVE MEASURES |
| |
| Personal Protective Equipment: |
All equipment should be NIOSH approved. |
| Respiratory: |
Exposure within those recommended by respirator
manufacturer require organic vapour cartridge. |
| Eye Protection: |
Chemical goggles must be worn at all times when
handling product. If there is a possibility of splashing, wear protective face
shield. If vapours irritate eyes, wear full face respirator. |
| Clothing: |
Chemical resistant protective clothing must be worn
at all times when handling product. Wash thoroughly or dispose of any
contaminated clothing. |
| Engineering Controls: |
Local exhaust ventilation is recommended for
controlled products. The use of mechanical ventilation is recommended whenever
this product is used in a confined space or when air circulation is inadequate.
If product is flammable/combustible, all equipment should be explosion proof. |
| Leak/Spill Procedures: |
Avoid all bodily contact. Absorb material on
appropriate absorbent and shovel into compatible salvage containers. Appropriate
breathing apparatus must be worn if ventilation is inadequate. Do not allow
product to enter sewers or storm water inlets. |
| Waste Disposal: |
It is the responsibility of the user of this product
to determine at the time of disposal whether product meets criteria for
hazardous waste. This is because product uses, transformations, processes,
mixtures, etc., may render a non-hazardous material hazardous, or a hazardous
material non-hazardous. |
| Container Disposal: |
Empty container retains product residue. Containers
must be triple rinsed before disposal or reuse. Observe all hazard precautions.
Keep away from heat, sparks and flames. Do not weld or use a cutting torch on or
near container. Do not distribute, make available, furnish or reuse empty
container except for storage and shipment of original product. Remove all
hazardous product residue and puncture or otherwise destroy empty container
before disposal. |
| Special Shipping Information: |
Note Storage and Handling Precautions. Refer to Fire
and Explosion hazard for data on flammability/combustibility of product. Do not
ship with foodstuffs, feed or clothing. |
| Storage/Handling Procedures: |
Avoid inhalation of vapours/mists. Do not get on
skin, in eyes or on clothing. Keep container closed when not in use. Wear
suitable protection for eyes and skin when handling. Use with adequate
ventilation. Avoid contact with incompatible materials. Store in cool, dry, well
ventilated area away from sources of heat, ignition, sparks. use proper
grounding techniques if product is classed as flammable or combustible. Eye wash
and safety showers should be easily accessible and in proper operating order. |
