Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Do not attempt to fight fires involving explosive materials. Evacuate all personnel to a predetermined safe location, no less than 2,500 feet in all directions. Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Can explode or detonate under fire conditions. Burning material may produce toxic vapors. SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Effects of Overexposure Eyes: May cause irritation, redness and tearing. Skin: Contact may result in headache, nausea and blood vessel dilation. Ingestion: May result in headache, nausea, intestinal upset and blood vessel dilation. Inhalation: May result in headache, nausea and blood vessel dilation. Systemic or Other Effects: None known. Emergency and First Aid Procedures Eyes: Irrigate with running water for at least fifteen minutes. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash with soap and water. Ingestion: Seek medical attention. Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. Special Considerations: None. SECTION VI - REACTIVITY DATA Stability: Stable under normal conditions. May explode when subjected to fire, supersonic shock, or high-energy projectile impact, especially when confined or in large quantities. Conditions to Avoid: Keep away from heat, flame, ignition sources and strong shock. Materials to Avoid (Incompatibility): Corrosives (mineral acids, bases, strong acids). Hazardous Decomposition Products: Carbon Monoxide (CO), Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S), Nitrous Oxides (NOX), and Sulfur Oxides (SOX). Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur. SECTION VII - SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
Steps to be taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled: Protect from all ignition sources. In case of fire evacuate area not less than 2,500 feet in all directions. Notify authorities in accordance with emergency response procedures. Only personnel trained in emergency response should respond. If no fire danger is present, and product is undamaged and/or uncontaminated, repackage product in original packaging or other clean DOT approved container. Ensure that a complete account of product has been made and is verified. Follow applicable Federal, State, and local spill reporting requirements.
