Other hazards which do not result in classification

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. May dull the sense of smell, so do not rely on odour as an indication of hazard. 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. Electrostatic charges may be generated during pumping. Electrostatic discharge may cause fire. Contact with hot material can cause thermal burns which may result in permanent skin damage. Not classified as flammable but will burn. Flammable vapours may be present even at temperatures below the flash point. Therefore it should be treated as a potentially flammable liquid. Repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking.

2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture

1910.1200) Flammable liquids : Category 4 Acute toxicity (Inhalation) : Category 4 Reproductive toxicity : Category 2 Carcinogenicity : Category 1B Specific target organ toxicity : Category 2 (Blood, Liver, thymus) - repeated exposure Short-term (acute) aquatic : Category 1 hazard Long-term (chronic) aquatic : Category 1 hazard
