Coefficient of water/oil distribution : N/A

Evaporation rate (nBu Ac=1) : 0.10

 

 

Flammability : Yes, by open flame, sparks, excessive heat, smoking and other sources of ignition.

Note : Vapor may travel some distance to a source of ignition and flash back along the vapor trail.

Means of extinction : Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, foam, water fog.

Special procedures : Do not enter confined fire space without adequate protective clothing and an approved positive  self contained breathing apparatus.  Exclude air. Do not use water except as a fog.  Use water to cool fire exposed containers.

Explosion : Vapor forms explosive mixture with air between upper and lower flammable limits.

Auto-ignition (°C) : N/A                         Lower explosion limit (% by volume) : 0.80

Sensitivity to mechanical impact : None          Sensitivity to static discharge : Yes

 

Section V – Toxicological properties of material

Exposure limits (TVL ppm) : 100.00                              Irritancy of material : Slight to moderate skin irritant

CARINOGENICITY, REPRODUCTIE EFFECTS, TERATOGENICITY and MULTAGENICITY

No adverse affects are anticipated.

 

Emergency telephone number: Canutec (613) 996-6666, Termarust technical department (514) 351-7600

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Route of entry : Skin contact, skin absorption, inhalation acute, ingestion

Effects of acute exposure to material : Direct contact with skin may cause drying and cracking.  Contact with eyes  may cause conjunctivitis, irritation, and inflammation of mucous membranes.  Inhaled, may cause irritation of eyes, nose, throat, and respiratory tract.  Ingestion may cause irritation of mucous membranes of mouth and throat.

Effects of chronic exposure to material : Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause drying resulting in irritation and possible dermatitis.  Prolonged exposure to high vapor concentration can cause headache, dizziness, nausea, depression and narcosis.  Ingestion may cause nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhea.

 

 

Chemical stability : Yes

Incompatibility with other substances : Yes, with strong Oxidizing agents, mineral acids

Reactivity and under what conditions : Avoid excessive heat, open flame, spark and all ignition sources

Hazardous decomposition products : Carbon monoxide and Carbon dioxide when heated

 

 

Gloves : Impervious (Nitrile, PVC)           Eyes : Chemical safety goggles of full face shield

Respiratory : Wear a CSA approved respirator

Other : Where the risk of skin exposure is higher, impervious clothing should be worn.  A positive demand, self-contained or airline breathing apparatus for extremely high concentrations.

Engineering controls : Local and mechanical ventilation to maintain below LEL and TLV values

Leak and spill procedure : Eliminate all sources of ignition.  Prevent from entering water sources or sewers.  Ventilate enclosed spaces. Large spills: Warn public of potential down wind explosion hazard due to flash back of flammable vapors.  Contain by dyking.  Recover product and collect contaminated soil or water for treatment and/or disposal.  Small spills : Contain by applying absorbent.  Collect waste absorbent and contaminated soil for disposal.  Notify appropriate environmental agency.

Waste disposal : Reclaim or dispose of waste material in an approved incinerator or waste treatment disposal facility in accordance with applicable regulations by the environmental authority.

Handling procedures and equipment : Flammable.  Avoid breathing vapors and prolonged or repeated contact with skin.  Launder contaminated clothing.  Use good personal hygiene.  Ground equipment.  Use sparks resistant tools.  Avoid splash filling.

Storage requirement : Keep container closed.  Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, from heat and ignition sources.

Special shipping information : Handle as flammable liquid.

 

 

Inhaled : Remove to fresh air.  If not breathing give artificial respiration.  Obtain medical attention immediately

Skin contact :  Flush affected areas with mild soap and water.  Remove contaminated clothing

Eye contact : Flush eyes with water for at least 15 minutes holding eyelids open.  Obtain medical attention immediately.

Ingestion : Do not induce vomiting. Obtain medical attention immediately.

Additional information : If accidentally ingested or inhaled, liquid can produce chemical pneumonia.  Cardiac arrhythmia has been reported with solvent exposure.
