SECTION 3 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION EMERGENCY OVERVIEW – White opaque thin viscosity liquid with aromatic odor. Warning! Flammable liquid and vapor. Keep away from heat sparks and flames. May cause eye, skin and respiratory tract irritation. If swallowed do not induce vomiting. Get immediate medical attention. POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS Eyes: Liquid is moderately irritating to the eyes. Skin: Liquid is mildly irritating to the skin. Ingestion: Ingestion of liquid may cause vomiting. Inhalation: High concentration of vapors may produce irritation of the respiratory tract, headache, dizziness, and nausea. CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS Prolonged or repeated contact may cause skin sensitization or dermatitis. Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with irreversible brain and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating or inhaling this product may be harmful or fatal. IARC (International Agency for Research of Cancer) has classified Ethyl Benzene as a possible human carcinogen (2B). SECTION 4 FIRST AID MEASURES Eyes – Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention immediately. Inhalation – Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention immediately. Skin – Flush skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Ingestion – If large quantities of this material are swallowed, get immediate medical attention. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. SECTION 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Flash Point (Method Used) Flammable Limits LEL UEL 79 F 1.9 12.3 Extinguishing Media Use water fog, foam, dry chemical or CO2. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers and to protect personnel. - 1- Formula: J3108 Special Fire Fighting Procedures Keep containers cool and vapors down with water spray. Prevent spill from entering drains, sewers, streams or other bodies of water. If run-off occurs, notify proper authorities. Do not enter confined fire space without full bunker gear (helmet with face shield, bunker coats, gloves and rubber boots), including a positive pressure NIOSH approved self-contained breathing apparatus. Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards – Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along ground, or be moved by ventilation and be ignited by ignition source. SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES SMALL SPILL: Absorb liquid with non-combustible floor absorbent and place in non-leaking container; seal properly and dispose of properly in compliance with federal, state, and local regulations. LARGE SPILL: Evacuate area of unprotected personnel. Eliminate all ignition sources. Stop spill at source if safe to do so. Handling equipment must be grounded to prevent sparking. Prevent spill from entering drains, sewers, streams or other bodies of water. If run-off occurs, notify proper authorities. Pump or vacuum transfer spilled product to clean containers for recovery. Absorb unrecoverable product. Transfer contaminated absorbent, soil and other materials to containers for disposal. Dispose of properly in compliance with federal, state, and local regulations. SECTION 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE HANDLING: Empty containers retain residue (liquid and/or vapor) and can be dangerous. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose such containers to heat, sparks, flames, static electricity, or other sources of ignition. Many hot organic chemical vapors or mists are susceptible to sudden spontaneous combustion when mixed with air. Ignition may occur at temperatures below those published in the literature as “autoignition” or ignition temperatures. Ignition temperatures decrease with increasing vapor volume and vapor volume and vapor/air contact time, and are influenced by pressure changes. Ignition of organic chemical vapors may occur at typical elevated-temperature process conditions, especially in processes operating under vacuum if subjected to sudden ingress of air, or outside process equipment operating under elevated pressure if sudden escape of vapors or mists to the atmosphere occurs. Any proposed use of this product in elevated-temperature processes should be thoroughly evaluated to assure that safe operating conditions are established and maintained. STORAGE: Keep away from heat, sparks and open flames. Keep out of reach of children. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use. Store in cool, well-ventilated place away from incompatible materials. Information on this Material Safety Data Sheets refers to ink used in pens and markers, however, it applies to these inks in bulk. The inks are contained in capillary or valve reservoirs and will not spill or leak under normal conditions. SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Respiratory Protection (Specify Type) – Not usually necessary. Use with adequate ventilation. Use NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator if PELs or TLVs are exceeded. Engineering Local Exhaust Not usually needed Special None Controls Mechanical (General) Yes Other None Protective Gloves – Chemical resistant gloves if skin contact is Eye Protection – Not normally required if used as intended. possible (consult your safety equipment supplier). Wear chemical splash goggles in compliance with OSHA regulation if splashing is possible. Other Protective Clothing or Equipment Not usually necessary. For bulk material, if direct contact is possible, wear apron, boots, face shield, etc. as needed. Work/Hygienic Practices Follow label instructions. Wash hands after use and before eating, drinking, smoking, using restrooms, etc. SECTION 9 PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Boiling Point Specific Gravity (H2O = 1) 282 to 286oF @70o F Vapor Pressure (mm-Hg @ 70o F) Melting Point No Data Vapor Density (AIR = 1) Greater than Evaporation Rate (Butyl Acetate = 1) one (1) Solubility in Water Negligible pH >1 No Data Less than one (1) No Data Appearance and Odor – White opaque thin viscosity liquid with aromatic odor. -2- Formula: J3108 SECTION 10 STABILITY AND REACTIVITY Chemical Unstable Conditions to Avoid – None known.
