SECTION IV- FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA (continued)

 

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:  Dry chemical, alcohol foam or CO2.

 

SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES:  Do NOT use forced stream as this could cause fire to spread.  Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus when fighting fires containg or around this product.  shut off all sources of ignition, if possible.  Keep containers cool with water spray to prevent rupture.  Ventilate area.  Evacuate all non-trained personnel.  wear full protective clothing including helmet.  Contain spill and dike area if possible.

 

UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS:  Firefighters should wear SCBAs in positive pressure mode with full face shield.  Vapors are heavier than air and may travel long distances and accumulate in low areas or spread along ground away from handling site.  Eliminate all sources of ignition as vapor may ignite.  Carbon oxides may be formed.

 

SECTION V- REACTIVITY DATA

          

STABILITY:  Stable, however, could form peroxides of unknown stability.  Avoid open flames and temperatures above 120°F or direct sunlight.

 

INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID): Avoid strong oxidizing agents, (peroxide, dichromate, permagnate, chlorine, ect.) strong acids  caustics and halogens.  Nitric acids, sodium hydroxide, alkali metal hydroxides.

 

HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION OR BYPRODUCTS:  Combustion may produce carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and reactive hydrocarbons (aldehydes, aromatics)

 

HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur.

 

SECTION VI- HEALTH HAZARD DATA

 

EFFECTS OF OVER EXPOSURE:

EYES CONTACT: Can cause severe irritation, experienced by stinging and discomfort or pain and redness, tearing, blurred vision and conjunctivitis.

 

SKIN CONTACT:  Prolonged or repeated contact may cause discomfort and local redness, also can defat the skin which can lead to dermatitis, itching, inflammation, and possible secondary infection.

 

SKIN ABSORPTION:  Evidence has been reported that 2-butoxyethanol may be absorbed through the skin.

 

INGESTION:  This product may be harmful or fatal if swallowed.  May cause abdominal discomfort, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.  2-butoxyethanol is considered a poison by ingestion.  Do not induce vomiting, because aspiration into lungs can cause severe chemical pneumonitis or pulmonary edema/hemorage which can be fatal.

 

INHALATION:  May cause irritation of the resipratory tract, experienced as nasal discomfort and discharge, with chest pain, coughing, headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, drowsiness, disturbed vision, and unconsciousness, euphoria, contracted eye pupils, tremous, sezures, coma, respiratory arrest and sudden death could occur as a result of long term or high concentration of vapor.  May also cause anemia and irregular heart rhythm.  Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause behavorial changes.

SECTION VI- HEALTH HAZARD DATA (continued)

 

SYSTEMIC AND OTHER EFFECTS: Human systemic effects by inhalation: nausea, vomiting, headaches, nose tumors, unspecified eye effects.  2-Butoxyethanol has been reported as an experimental teratogenic with reproductive effects.

 

EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES:

EYE CONTACT:  In case of contact with liquid or vapors, wash eyes with water  for at least 15 minutes, lifting eyelids to ensure thorough rinsing.  Remove contact lenses if worn.  If irritation persists, CONSULT PHYSICIAN.

SKIN CONTACT:  Remove contaminated clothing, wash exposed area with soap and water.   Remove contaiminated clothing and launder before rewwearing.  If irritation presists seek medical advice.

INHALATION:  Remove victim from contaminated area to fresh air.  Keep warm and at rest (in the recovery position). If breathing is weak, irregular or has stopped, commence artificial respiration.  Oxygen may be beneficial.  CONSULT PHYSICIAN.

INGESTION:  Never give anything to an unconscious person.  DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING.  Aspiration of materials into lungs due to vomiting can cause chemical pneumontis, which can be fatal.  Give vegtable oil or a charcol slurry to retard absorption.  If spontaneous vomiting occurs, keep head below hips to prevent aspiration of liquid into lungs and monitor for breathing difficulty.  Keep person warm and quiet.  CONTACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.

 

SECTION VII- ENVIRONMENTAL AND DISPOSAL INFORMATION

 

ACTION TO TAKE FOR SPILLS/LEAKS:  Ventilate area, especially low places where heavy vapors might collect.  Extinguish all ignition sources.  Contain spill and cover with inorganic absorbent material.  Collect spilled material.  place into an approved DOT container for disposal.  Clean up residue with water.  Refer to other sections of the MSDS for information reguarding physical and health hazards, respiratory protection, ventilation, and personal protective equipment. 

 

WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD:  Reclaim by distillation if possible or remove to permitted waste disposal facility in accordance with local, state and federal regulations.  For small spills, dry inorganic material on plastic in direct sunlight and then place in the landfill.  For large spills, remove to permitted disposal facility.

 

ENVIRONMENTAL DATA:  No data available.

 

SECTION VIII- CONTROL MEASURES

 

HANDLING AND STORAGE PRECAUTIONS:  Store in tightly sealed containers.  Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame.  Do not get in eyes, on skin or clothing.  Do not breathe vapor, mist or gas.  Do not store or transfer to unmarked container.  Do not throw empty containers in trash compactor.  Do not store in direct sunlight.  Store containers below 120°F.  Read label before using.  Do not smoke when handling or using this product.  Do not throw empty container into fires.

 

SECTION IX- SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION

 

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION (SPECIFY TYPE):  Select one of the following NIOSH approved respirators based on airborne concentration of contaminants and in accordance with OSHA regulations:  Full-face organic vapor and acid gas respirator, full face supplied air respirator, full face pressure demand self contained breathing apparatus.

PROTECTIVE GLOVES:  Any lined non-permeable rubber gloves like buna or nitrile.

EYE PROTECTION:  Wear unvented goggles during operations in which exposure is likely.  Wear full face shield.

SECTION IX- SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION (continued)

 

OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT:  Non-permeable clothing to protect all skin from liquid contact.

RECOMMENDED VENTILATION:  Use with appropriate local exhaust ventilation.  Provide appropriate local exhaust ventilation on open containers.  If exhaust ventilation is not adequate, use appropriate respiratory protection.

PREVENTION OF ACCIDENTAL INGESTION:  Do not eat or drink or wear facial cream when using this product.  Do not swallow.  Wash exposed areas thoroughly with soap and water.
