| Hazards Identification | Back to Contents | 【Inhalation】
Aspiration may lead to pulmonary edema. Exposure to thermodegradation products may cause influenza-like symptoms such as chills, headache, mild respiratory discomfort, shaking of the limbs, and high fever. | 【Skin】
May cause skin irritation. | 【Eyes】
May cause eye irritation. Vapors may cause conjunctiva irritation. | 【Ingestion】
May cause irritation of the digestive tract. |
| Exposure Controls/Personal Protection | Back to Contents | 【Personal Protection】
Eyes: Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European Standard EN166. Skin: Wear appropriate protective gloves to prevent skin exposure. Clothing: Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin exposure. | 【Respirators】
A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29 CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements or European Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use. | 【Exposure Effects】
Experimental carcinogen. | 【Poison Class】

| Fire Fighting Measures | Back to Contents | 【Fire Fighting】
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Extinguishing media: Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. In case of fire use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or appropriate foam. |
| Accidental Release Measures | Back to Contents | 【Small spills/leaks】
Clean up spills immediately, using the appropriate protective equipment. Avoid generating dusty conditions. Provide ventilation. Cover with dry earth, dry sand, or other non-combustible material followed with plastic sheet to minimize spreading and contact with water. |
| Stability and Reactivity | Back to Contents | 【Stability】
Stable under normal shipping and handling conditions. | 【Incompatibilities】
Strong oxidizing agents. | 【Decomposition】
Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen fluoride. | 【Combustion Products】
Above 400 C the quantity of pyrolysis products increases rapidly and so does their toxic nature. |
