3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW:
PHYSICAL APPEARANCE: Transparent, colorless liquid.
IMMEDIATE CONCERNS: Warning! High concentrations of vapor can reduce oxygen available for breathing.
Harmful if inhaled. May decompose on contact with flames or extremely hot metal surfaces to produce toxic and
corrosive products.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS:
EYES: Substance causes substantial eye irritation.
SKIN: Prolonged or repeated contact can result in defatting and drying of the skin which may result in skin
irritation and dermatitis (rash).
INGESTION: Substance may be harmful is swallowed.
INHALATION: High concentrations in immediate area can displace oxygen and can cause dizziness,
unconsciousness, and possibly death with longer exposure. Keep people away from such vapors without selfcontained breathing apparatus.
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE
EYES: Liquid splashed in the eye may cause redness, irritation and conjunctivitis.
SKIN: Prolonged exposure causes redness, pain, drying, and cracking of the skin.
INGESTION: For large amounts, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting.
INHALATION: High concentrations may lead to central nervous system effects (drowsiness, nausea, headaches,
paralysis and loss of consciousness.)
ACUTE TOXICITY: Overexposure may cause dizziness and loss of concentration. At higher levels, CNS
depression and cardiac arrhythmia may result.
REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY
TERATOGENIC EFFECTS: Contains Methanol, which has been established as a teratogen by inhalation. See Sec.
11 for details.
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
EYES: Immediately flush with plenty of water. After initial flushing, remove any contact lenses and continue
flushing for at least 15 minutes. Have eyes examined and tested by medical personnel.
SKIN: Immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Remove clothing. Get medical attention immediately. Wash
clothing separately before reuse.
INGESTION: If swallowed, gently wipe or rinse the inside of the mouth with water. DO NOT induce vomiting.
Sips of water may be given if person is fully conscious. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious or
convulsing person. Immediately contact a poison control center, emergency room or physician as further
treatment may be necessary.
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration or give oxygen by trained
personnel. Seek immediate medical attention.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FLASHPOINT AND METHOD: Not Flammable
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Use alcohol foam, carbon dioxide, or water spray when fighting fires involving this
material.
FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool and to knock down
vapors, which may result from product decomposition.
FIRE FIGHTING EQUIPEMENT: As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand,
(MSHA/NIOSH approved or equivalent) and full protective gear.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Toxic oxides of carbon and corrosive vapors of hydrogen
chloride.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
SMALL SPILL: Contain spill with dike to prevent entry into sewers.
LARGE SPILL: If this material is released into a work area, evacuate the area immediately.
GENERAL PROCEDURES: Dike area to contain spill. Take precautions as necessary to prevent contamination of
ground and surface waters. Recover spilled material on adsorbent, such as sawdust or vermiculite, and sweep into
closed containers for disposal. After all visible traces, including vapors, have been removed thoroughly wet vacuum
the area. Do not flush to sewer. If area of spill is porous, remove as much contaminated earth, gravel, etc. as necessary
and place in closed containers for disposal.
SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Only personnel equipped with proper respiratory and skin/eye protection
should be permitted in area. See Section 8 for details.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING Use with sufficient ventilation to keep employee exposure below recommended limits. Provide
adequate ventilation for storage, handling and use, especially for enclosed or low spaces. Avoid contact of liquid with
eyes and prolonged skin exposure. Do not allow product to contact open flame or electrical heating elements because
dangerous decomposition products may form.
STORAGE: Store away from heat.
