Appearance: Colorless liquid with penetrating ether-like odor.
SECTION IV-Fire and Explosion Hazard Data
Flash Point: 18 F Extremely Flammable Level 3 Aerosol
Extinguishing Media: Water, CO2, Foam, Dry Chemical
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Do not expose containers to temperatures above 120 F.
Unusual Fire and Explosion: Forms flammable vapor air mixtures. Lowers temperatures increases the difficulty of getting it to ignite.
SECTION V-Health Hazard and First Aid
Time Weighted Average (TWA): 50 ppm based in the raw material
Carcinogen: No
Acute Chronic Health Effects: Excessive exposure may cause irritation to upper respiratory tract. Excessive exposure may cause carboxyhemoglobinemia; thereby impairing the bloods ability to transport oxygen.
Primary Routes of Entry: X Inhalation X Skin X Ingestion
Effects of Overexposure: Eyes- May cause pain, moderate eye irritation and slight corneal injury. Vapors may irritate eyes.
Skin- May cause irritation. Repeated contact may cause drying or flaking of skin.
Inhalation: In confined or poorly ventilated areas, vapors can readily accumulated and cause unconsciousness and death.
Ingestion- May be harmful.

Skin- Wash with soap and water..
Ingestion- Do not induce vomiting. Get medical attention immediately.
Inhalation- Move to fresh air. Get medical attention.
SECTION VI-Reactivity Data
Stability: Stable X
Conditions to Avoid: Hydrolysis producing small amounts of hydrochloric acid possible with gross water contamination.
Avoid open flames, welding arcs, or other high temperature sources, which induce thermal decomposition.
Incompatibility: Strong oxidizers; caustics, chemically active metals such as aluminum, magnesium & sodium.
SECTION VII-S pill or Leak Procedures
Steps to take in case material is released or spilled: use absorbent material and trade receptacle. Waste disposal method Federal and Local regulations.
SECTION VIII-Special Protection Information
Respiratory Protection: Adequate ventilation
