OLOA 54720

If exposed to excessive levels of material in the air, move the exposed person to fresh air. If exposure to hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas is possible during an emergency, move the exposed person to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.

Symptoms: coughing or respiratory discomfort

Wash skin with water immediately and remove contaminated clothing and shoes. To remove the material from skin, apply a waterless hand cleaner, mineral oil, or petroleum jelly. Then wash with soap and water. Discard contaminated clothing and shoes or thoroughly clean before reuse.

Symptoms: Contact with the skin may cause an allergic skin reaction. Symptoms may include pain, itching, discoloration, swelling, and blistering.

Remove contact lenses, if worn, and flush eyes with water.

Symptoms: Not expected to cause prolonged or significant eye irritation.

Do not induce vomiting.

Symptoms: Not expected to be harmful if swallowed.

Use water fog, foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide (CO2) to extinguish flames.

A complex mixture of airborne solids, liquids, and gases including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and unidentified organic compounds will be evolved when this material undergoes combustion.

For fires involving this material, do not enter any enclosed or confined fire space without proper protective equipment, including self-contained breathing apparatus.

Observe all relevant local and international regulations. Keep out unnecessary and unprotected personnel. Persons entering the contaminated area to correct the problem or to determine whether it is safe to resume normal activities must comply with all instructions in the Exposure Controls/Personal Protection section.

Stop the source of the release if you can do it without risk. Contain release to prevent further contamination of soil, surface water or groundwater.

Clean up spill as soon as possible, observing precautions in Exposure Controls/Personal Protection. Use appropriate techniques such as applying non-combustible absorbent materials or pumping.

Materials: non-combustible absorbent materials

Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not taste or swallow. Do not breathe gas. Wash thoroughly after handling.

Storage temperatures for up to 2 weeks should not exceed 66°C (150°F). The recommended long-term (2 weeks or more) storage temperature is ambient to 45°C (113°F) maximum.

Wash thoroughly after handling.

Review all operations which have the potential of generating and accumulating an electrostatic charge and/or a flammable atmosphere and use appropriate mitigating procedures. Do not expose containers to heat, flame, sparks, static electricity, or other sources of ignition.

Use general ventilation, local exhaust ventilation, or a combination of both.

Using chemical PPE depends upon operations conducted and may include chemical gloves. Refer to PPE manufacturers to obtain breakthrough time information to determine how long PPE can be used before it needs to be replaced. Unless specific glove manufacturer data indicates otherwise, the below table is based upon available industry data to assist in the glove selection process and is intended to be used as reference only. Chemical Glove Material: Butyl (0.7mm, 120 minutes), Neoprene (0.75mm, 30 minutes), Nitrile (0.85mm, 15 minutes), Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) (1.5mm, 30 minutes), Viton Butyl (0.3mm, 120 minutes).

Wear protective equipment to prevent eye contact. Selection of protective equipment may include safety glasses, chemical goggles, face shields, or a combination depending on the work operations conducted.

A site-specific risk assessment should be conducted by an Occupational Hygienist or a Safety Professional to determine the type and use of respiratory protective equipment. When a site-specific risk assessment determines that respiratory protection is required, use an approved respirator such as: Air purifying respirator - If airborne concentration limits exceed the applicable occupational exposure limit, but are below the maximum use concentration. Vapors only: organic vapor cartridge (filter type A3 per EN 529:2005). Vapors and particulates (including generated mists): both an organic vapor cartridge & particulate filter (AP3 filter per EN 529:2005). Refer to respirator manufacturers to obtain service life of cartridge / filter. Positive pressure air-supplying respirator - If airborne concentration limits exceed the maximum use concentration offered from an air purifying respirator. If hydrogen sulfide (H2S) airborne concentrations exceed its applicable occupational exposure limits due to this material being heated. For more information on H2S, see Chevron SDS 301. Refer to EN 529:2005, USA OSHA 1910.134, and/or other applicable local/regional/national/international standards for regulatory requirements.

Wear chemical personal protective equipment (PPE) to prevent skin contact. Selection of chemical protective clothing should be performed by an Occupational Hygienist or Safety Professional and be based upon applicable standards (ASTM F739 or EN 374). Using chemical PPE depends upon operations conducted and may include chemical gloves, boots, chemical apron, chemical suit, and complete facial protection.
