3. Hazard Identification
Emergency Overview:
DANGER! Combustible liquid & vapor. Harmful or fatal if
swallowed or inhaled. Stable oxidizer: subject to violent
reactions. Causes Severe irritation and burns to skin and eyes.
Vapors cause severe respiratory tract irritation.
Potential Health Effects:
Eye Contact: Extremely irritating and corrosive. Direct contact may cause
conjunctivitis, redness, pain, blurred vision, conjunctive and
corneal destruction and permanent injury.
Skin contact: Extremely irritating and corrosive. Contact may cause redness,
itching, inflammation, burns, blistering and tissue damage.
Inhalation: May cause severe irritation to the respiratory tract. Exposure to
fume or mist may cause chemical pneumonitis, bronchitis and
pulmonary edema. Severe exposure may result in lung tissue

damage and corrosion of the mucous membranes. Chronic
exposure may produce erosion of the teeth and jaw necrosis.
Ingestion: Moderately toxic. Corrosive. May cause burning pain of the
mouth, throat and abdomen and coughing and constriction of the
throat, followed by nausea, abdominal spasms, vomiting,
hematemesis and diarrhea. May also cause hematuria,
albuminuria, nephrosis, asphyxia and death.
Special Toxic Effects: Mutagenic in non-mammalian test systems.
4. First Aid Measures
Eye: Flush immediately with large amounts of water for at least 15
minutes. Eyelids should be held away from the eyeball to ensure
thorough rinsing. Seek immediate medical attention!
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing immediately. Wash the area of
contact thoroughly with soap and water. Seek immediate medical
attention! Discard contaminated clothing and leather goods.
Inhalation: Remove exposed person from source of exposure. If not
breathing, ensure clear airway and institute cardiopulmonary
resuscitation (CPR). If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen if
available. Keep affected person warm and at rest. Seek
immediate medical attention!
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious, give one-three
glasses of water or milk to dilute stomach contents. Keep
affected person warm and at rest. Seek immediate medical
attention!
Note to Physician: Inhalation -Delayed pulmonary edema may occur and patient
should be maintained under close observation for this
complication. Ingestion -The agent is an acid corrosive and
produced coagulative necrosis of the buccal cavity, esophagus
and stomach. While treatment of acute ingestion is controversial,
induction of emesis and use of carbon dioxide producing and acids are contraindicated. Nasal gastric intubations should be
undertaken only with the risk of perforation recognized in
contrast to the value of gastric aspiration and lavage. Late
complications may include esophageal, gastric or pyloric
stenosis.
5. Firefighting Measures
Flashpoint: 131° F (84%); 107.6° F (98%) Lower Flammability Limit: >5.40 (98%)

(800.6°F) 98%
Basic Firefighting
Procedures:
Use water spray, dry chemical, alcohol foam, all purpose AFFF
or carbon dioxide to extinguish fire. Use water spray to cool
fire-exposed containers, structures and to protect personnel.
If leak or spill has not ignited, ventilate area and use water spray
to disperse gas or vapor and to protect personnel attempting to
stop leak. Use water to dilute spills and to flush them away from
sources of ignition. DO NOT flush down public sewers or other
drainage systems. Exposed firefighters must wear
MSHA/NIOSH approved positive pressure self-contained
breathing apparatus with full face mask and full protective
clothing.
6. Accidental Releases Measures
Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind; keep
out of low area. (Also see Personal Protection Information section.) Do not touch or
walk through spilled material; stop leak if you can do it without risk. Small Spills: Take
up with sand or other noncombustible absorbent material and place into containers for
later disposal. Small Dry Spills: Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal.
7.Handling and Storage
Store in tightly closed containers in cool, dry isolated, well-ventilated area away from
heat, sources of ignition and incompatibles. Store out of direct sunlight. Ground lines
and equipment used during transfer to reduce the possibility of static spark-initiated fire
or explosion.

Personal Protection Equipment (PPE)
Eye Protection: Wear chemical safety goggles and face shield. Do not wear
contact lenses when working with this substance. Have eye
washing facilities readily available where eye contact can
occur.
Skin Protection: Wear gloves and protective clothing to prevent skin contact.
Suggested protective materials are: Neoprene. Provide
safety showers at any location where skin contact can occur.
Respiratory Protection: If exposure limits are exceeded or if irritation is experienced,
NIOSH approved respiratory protection should be worn.
Normally, a NIOSH approved respirator for organic vapors
is generally acceptable. For high concentrations and for
oxygen-deficient atmospheres, use a NIOSH approved air supplier respirator. Ventilation and other forms of
engineering controls are often the preferred means for
controlling chemical exposures. Respiratory protection may
be needed for non-routine or emergency situations.
