Section 3: Hazards Identification EMERGENCY OVERVIEW (Amber Liquid; Negligible Odor.) Eye contact may be very irritating if not treated. Inhalation hazard generally considered low; however, vapors of 1,1-Dichloro-1-Fluoroethane may accumulate in confined, poorly ventilated spaces causing irritation; or at high concentrations asphyxiation. Hazard from ingestion of a very small quantity is considered low. HMIS Ratings: Health: 2, Flammability: 1, Reactivity: 1 POTENTIAL ROUTES OF ENTRY Eye: yes, Skin: yes, Inhalation: yes, Ingestion: not likely POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS    •   Eye: Direct contact to the eyes may be very irritating. The risk of exposing the eye to dangerous concentrations of vapor in well ventilated work situations is minimal.    •   Skin: 1,1-Dichloro-1-Fluoroethane may cause drying of the skin. Other components in the product may be irritating to the skin.    •   Inhalation: Vapors or mists may cause irritation of respiratory tract. Vapor accumulation in confined or other poorly ventilated spaces may displace breathing air, causing irritation or possible asphyxiation.    •   Ingestion: Should pose no significant hazard while following good work practices during normal industrial use. Cancer Information: None of the primary components are listed by NTP or IARC. None of the primary components are regulated OSHA carcinogens. Medical Conditions Which May Be Aggravated: None known. Section 4: First Aid Measures (See Section 11 Toxicology for information on toxicity and Notes to Physicians.) EYE: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Hold eyelids apart while flushing to rinse entire surface of eye and eyelids with water. IF IRRITATION PERSISTS, CONSULT WITH TRAINED MEDICAL PERSONNEL. SKIN CONTACT: Remove contamination from skin immediately by washing with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing. Consult with trained medical personnel if irritation or other symptoms occur. INHALATION: This product formulation as packaged is not likely to pose an inhalation hazard under normal conditions. In the event an exposure should occur, move patient to fresh air. If breathing has stopped give artificial respiration. Get medical attention. Oxygen may be given by qualified person if breathing is difficult. INGESTION: The primary components of this product should pose a low or moderate hazard if ingested in small quantities (less than an ounce). Should emergency first aid be required as a result of accidental ingestion, immediately consult with physician or poison control center and follow instructions of medical personnel. Section 5: Fire Fighting Measures Flammable Properties:    •  Flash Point: 269°F (Closed Cup) (After evaporation of 1,1-Dichloro-1-Fluoroethane)    •  Auto-ignition Temp: No Data    •  Lower Explosive Limit (LEL): 7.1%    •  Upper Explosive Limit (UEL): 17.7% (Flammable Limits = Vol. % in air by ASTM-E) Extinguishing Media: Water Spray, Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical Fire Fighting Instructions: As with any fire, wear approved self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure demand mode and full protective gear. Hazardous Combustion Products: Products of combustion may include carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, oxides of nitrogen, hydrocarbons, acid gasses, and ammonia. Unusual Fire And Explosion Hazards: May decompose during contact with flame or heat releasing irritating, toxic and corrosive gases. Closed container may explode when heated due to rising pressure. The component 1,1-Dichloro-1-Fluoroethane may break down into toxic gases such as hydrogen fluoride and hydrogen chloride at elevated temperatures. Section 6: Accidental Release Measures SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS: Follow standard industry practices for cleaning up hazardous chemical spills. There are no product specific techniques or recommendations known for cleaning spills of this material. GENERAL SPILL RESPONSE CONSIDERATIONS: Remove ignition sources. Stop leak if qualified and able to do so safely. Dike spill to prevent spreading into soil, sewage or other drainage systems, or bodies of water. Secure spill area. Open enclosed spaces to outside atmosphere. Be aware that vapors may tend to collect in low out of the way places. Use non- sparking tools and equipment when spill poses a flammability hazard. Cover with inert material to absorb. Collect all contaminated material and place in container for proper disposal. Always use proper personal protective equipment when cleaning-up spills. Section 7: Handling and Storage Practice reasonable care and caution in handling this material. Keep containers tightly closed. Store in a cool dry ventilated area away from incompatible materials (see section 10), and sources of ignition. Protect from physical damage. Secondary containment is recommended for large volume storage to minimize impact of an accidental release. Open containers carefully to allow any pressure build-up to vent safely. Do not get in eyes or on skin. Avoid breathing vapors. Read label before use. "Empty" containers may contain hazardous residue and should be handled and disposed of properly. Section 8: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Ventilation: Good general dilution ventilation matched to the conditions of product use is recommended to help minimize potential exposures. Activities that generate aerosols are better controlled by local exhaust ventilation. When used outdoors, stay well away from building air intakes or close the intakes to prevent product from entering building. Respiratory Protection: Use a NIOSH/MSHA approved, air supplied respirator if there is potential for uncontrolled release, where exposure levels are not known, or any other circumstances where air-purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection. Eye Face Protection: Wear chemical goggles or safety glasses with side shields. Where splash or aerosol generation is anticipated use glasses or goggles in conjunction with a full face shield. Skin Protection: Wear chemical resistant gloves and boots, (butyl rubber or neoprene). Clothing should be appropriate for the risk of exposure such as fabric coveralls and rubber apron. Section 9: Physical and Chemical Properties Color: Amber Odor: Low; Slightly Aromatic Vapor Pressure: No Data Boiling Point: 82° - 95° F Physical State: Liquid Freezing/Melting point: Not Available pH: No Data Solubility in Water: Moderate Vapor Density (air = 1): 5.67 @86°F Specific Gravity: 1.2 Section 10: Stability and Reactivity Chemical Stability: Stable Hazardous Polymerization: Will Not Occur Conditions To Avoid: Flames; Extremely hot surfaces; Sources of ignition; Mixture with incompatibles Incompatibility (with other materials): Oxidizers; Strong acids; Strong bases Hazardous Decomposition Products: Products of combustion may include carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, oxides of nitrogen, hydrocarbons, and ammonia. 1,1-Dichloro-1-Fluoroethane may break down into toxic gases such as hydrogen fluoride and hydrogen chloride at elevated temperatures.
