NTP: No
IARC: No
OSHA: No
SECTION 4: First Aid Measures
Eye Exposure: Immediately flush the eyes with copious amounts of water for at least 10-15 minutes. A victim may need assistance in keeping their eye lids open. Get immediate medical attention.
Skin Exposure: Wash the affected area with water. Remove contaminated clothes if necessary. Seek medical assistance if irritation persists.
Inhalation: Remove the victim to fresh air. Closely monitor the victim for signs of respiratory problems, such as difficulty in breathing, coughing, wheezing, or pain. In such cases seek immediate medical assistance.
Ingestion: Seek medical attention immediately. Keep the victim calm. Give the victim water (only if conscious). Induce vomiting only if directed by medical personnel.
SECTION 5: Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point: -7°F
Autoignition Temperature: pyrophoric residue
Explosion Limits: LEL (1.7%) UEL (7.7%)
Extinguishing Medium: carbon dioxide, dry powder or foam.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Fire fighters should be equipped with a NIOSH approved positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.
Hazardous Combustion and Decomposion Products: Burning material may emit toxic and corrosive fumes.
Unusual Fire or Explosion Hazards: Highly flammable. Formation of explosive air/vapor mixtures is possible.
SECTION 6: Accidental Release Measures
Spill and Leak Procedures: 'Residue may ignite spontaneously in air. Avoid static discharge. Burning material may release toxic fumes. In case of poor ventilation, leave the area unless fitted with a self-contained breathing apparatus. Small spills can be mixed with ground limestone, sodium bicarbonate, or other suitable absorbents, swept up, and held in a closed metal can.
SECTION 7: Handling and Storage
Handling and Storage: Store in a tightly sealed container under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen or argon. Keep away from heat. Material should be transferred under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen or argon in an efficient fume hood.
SECTION 8: Exposure Controls and Personal Protection
Eye Protection: Always wear approved safety glasses when handling a chemical substance in the laboratory.
Skin Protection: Wear protective clothes and gloves.
Ventilation: It is imperative that this material be handled in an efficient fume hood.
Respirator: If ventilation is not available a respirator should be worn. The use of respirators requires a Respirator Protection Program to be in compliance with 29 CFR 1910.134.
Additional Protection: No additional protection required.
