EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: clear yellow to orange liquid. Flash Point: 69 deg C.
Warning! Causes eye, skin, and respiratory tract
irritation. Combustible liquid and vapor.
May cause methemoglobinemia. The toxicological properties of this
material have not been fully investigated.
Target Organs: Blood.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation.
Ingestion:
May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea. May cause methemoglobinemia, cyanosis (bluish
discoloration of skin due to deficient oxygenation of the blood),
convulsions, and death. The toxicological properties of this
substance have not been fully investigated. Methemoglobinemia is
characterized by dizziness, drowsiness, headache, shortness of
breath, cyanosis (bluish discoloration of skin due to deficient
oxygenation of the blood), rapid heart rate and chocolate-brown
colored blood.
Inhalation:
Causes respiratory tract irritation. The toxicological properties of
this substance have not been fully investigated. Methemoglobinemia is
characterized by dizziness, drowsiness, headache, shortness of
breath, cyanosis (bluish discoloration of skin due to deficient
oxygenation of the blood), rapid heart rate and chocolate-brown
blood. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Inhalation of
aniline causes anoxia due to the formation of methemoglobin.
Chronic:
May cause methemoglobinemia, which is characterized by
chocolate-brown colored blood, headache, weakness, dizziness, breath
shortness, cyanosis (bluish skin due to deficient oxygenation of
blood), rapid heart rate, unconsciousness and possible death.
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
|
Eyes:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin:
Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing
before reuse.
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:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If breathing
is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical aid. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation. If breathing has ceased apply artificial respiration
using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device such as a bag and a
mask.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively. For methemoglobinemia,
administer oxygen alone or with Methylene Blue depending on the
methemoglobin concentration in the blood.
Antidote:
Methylene blue, alone or in combination with oxygen is indicated as
a treatment in nitrite induced methemoglobinemia.
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
|
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full
protective gear. Vapors may form an explosive mixture with air.
Vapors can travel to a source of ignition and flash back. During a
fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal
decomposition or combustion. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed
containers cool. Containers may explode in the heat of a fire. Vapors
may be heavier than air. They can spread along the ground and
collect in low or confined areas. Combustible liquid and vapor.
Extinguishing Media:
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or
alcohol-resistant foam. For large fires, use water spray, fog, or
alcohol-resistant foam.
Flash Point: 69 deg C ( 156.20 deg F)
Autoignition Temperature: Not available.
Explosion Limits, Lower:Not available.
Upper: Not available.
NFPA Rating:
(estimated) Health: 2; Flammability: 2; Instability: 0
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
|
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth),
then place in suitable container. Clean up spills immediately,
observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Remove all
sources of ignition. Provide ventilation.
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
|
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Ground and bond containers when transferring
material. Use spark-proof tools and explosion proof equipment. Avoid
contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Empty containers retain
product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Keep
container tightly closed. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze,
solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or
open flames. Use only with adequate ventilation. Keep away from heat
and flame. Do not breathe vapor or mist.
Storage:
Keep away from sources of ignition. Store in a tightly closed
container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from
incompatible substances.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection
|
Engineering Controls:
Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate
ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low.
