| First Aid Measures | Back to Contents | 【Ingestion】
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. Wash mouth out with water. | 【Inhalation】
Move victim to fresh air. Apply artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; induce artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. | 【Skin】
Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. In case of contact with substance, immediately flush with running water for at least 20 minutes. Wash skin with soap and water. | 【Eyes】
In case of contact with substance, immediately flush with running water for at least 20 minutes. |
| Handling and Storage | Back to Contents | 【Storage】
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of ignition. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Flammables-area. | 【Handling】
All chemicals should be considered hazardous. Avoid direct physical contact. Use appropriate, approved safety equipment. Untrained individuals should not handle this chemical or its container. Handling should occur in a chemical fume hood. |
| Hazards Identification | Back to Contents | 【Inhalation】
Aspiration may lead to pulmonary edema. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Exposure to high concentrations of mercaptans can produce unconsciousness with cyanosis, cold extremities and rapid pulse. Mercaptans may cause nausea and headache. May cause burning sensation in the chest. | 【Skin】
May cause irritation and dermatitis. May cause cyanosis of the extremities. | 【Eyes】
May cause eye irritation. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and corneal damage. | 【Ingestion】
May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. The toxicological properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. Mercaptans may cause nausea and headache. Exposure to high concentrations of mercaptans can produce unconsciousness with cyanosis, cold extremities and rapid pulse. Ingestion of large amounts may cause CNS depression. | 【Hazards】
Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Vapor explosion and poison hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers. | 【EC Risk Phrase】

| Exposure Controls/Personal Protection | Back to Contents | 【Personal Protection】
Wear appropriate protective gloves, clothing and goggles. | 【Respirators】
Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). | 【Exposure Effects】
Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause nausea, dizziness, and headache. Effects may be delayed. | 【Exposure limit(s)】
NIOSH REL: C 0.5 ppm (2.7 mg/m3) [15-minute] |
| Fire Fighting Measures | Back to Contents | 【Flash Point】
46 | 【Fire Fighting】
Use of water spray when fighting fire may be inefficient. Small Fires: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or alcohol-resistant foam. Large Fires: Water spray, fog or alcohol-resistant foam. | 【Lower exp. limit】
.9 | 【Fire Potential】
HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames. |
| Accidental Release Measures | Back to Contents | 【Small spills/leaks】
Make no contact with the spilled material. Fully encapsulating, vapor protective clothing should be worn for spills and leaks with no fire. ELIMINATE all ignition sources and ground all equipment. Stop leak if you can do it without risk. A vapor suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors. Absorb or cover with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers. Use clean non-sparking tools to collect absorbed material. |
| Stability and Reactivity | Back to Contents | 【Incompatibilities】
Oxidizing agents. | 【Stability】
Stable at room temperature in closed containers under normal storage and handling conditions. | 【Decomposition】
Carbon monoxide, oxides of sulfur, irritating and toxic fumes and gases, carbon dioxide. | 【Combustion Products】
Fire will produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. |
