2.3 Other hazards
Vapours are heavier than air. Vapours may travel across the ground and reach remote ignition sources causing a flashback fire danger. 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. Exposure may enhance the toxicity of other materials. See Chapter 11 for details. Vapours may be irritating to the eye.
