P242 Use non-sparking tools. P243 Take action to prevent static discharges. P261 Avoid breathing dust/ fume/ gas/ mist/ vapours/ spray. P264 Wash skin thoroughly after handling. P271 Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. P273 Avoid release to the environment. P280 Wear protective gloves/ protective clothing/ eye protection/ face protection.

Response

P301 + P310 IF SWALLOWED: Immediately call a POISON CENTER/doctor. P302 + P352 IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of water and soap. P304 + P340 IF INHALED: Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. P308 + P313 IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/ attention. P332 + P313 If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/ atten- tion. P362 + P364 Take off contaminated clothing and wash it before reuse. P370 + P378 In case of fire: Use appropriate media to extin- guish. P391 Collect spillage.

Disposal

P501 Dispose of contents/ container to an approved waste dis- posal plant.

Other hazards which do not result in classification

Slightly irritating to respiratory system. Liquid evaporates quickly and can ignite leading to a flash fire, or an explosion in a confined space. Vapour in the headspace of tanks and containers may ignite and explode at temperatures ex- ceeding auto-ignition temperature, where vapour concentrations are within the flammability range. May ignite on surfaces at temperatures above auto-ignition temperature. This material is a static accumulator. Even with proper grounding and bonding, this material can still accumulate an electrostatic charge. If sufficient charge is allowed to accumulate, electrostatic discharge and ignition of flammable air- vapour mixtures can occur. Hydrogen sulphide (H2S), an extremely flammable and toxic gas, and other hazardous vapours may evolve and collect in the headspace of storage tanks, transport vessels and other enclosed containers.

2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture

Flammable liquids : Category 3 Aspiration hazard : Category 1 Skin irritation : Category 2 Acute toxicity (Inhalation) : Category 4 Specific target organ toxicity : Category 3 (Narcotic effects) - single exposure (Inhalation) Carcinogenicity : Category 2 Specific target organ toxicity : Category 2 (Blood, thymus, Liver) - repeated exposure Long-term (chronic) aquatic : Category 2 hazard
