*  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  *
Respiratory Protection:The following respirators and maximum use
    supplied-air respirator. Any powered, air-purifying respirator with
    respirator with a full facepiece and organic vapor cartridge(s).
    Any air-purifying respirator with a full facepiece and an organic
    vapor canister. Any powered, air-purifying respirator with a full
    facepiece and organic vapor cartridge(s). Any self-contained
    breathing apparatus with a full facepiece. Any supplied-air
    respirator with a full facepiece. Escape - Any air-purifying
    respirator with a full facepiece and an organic vapor canister. Any
    appropriate escape-type, self-contained breathing apparatus. For
    Unknown Concentrations or Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health -
    Any supplied-air respirator with full facepiece and operated in a
    pressure-demand or other positive-pressure mode in combination with
    a separate escape supply. Any self-contained breathing apparatus
    with a full facepiece.
Ventilation:Provide local exhaust ventilation system. Ventilation
    equipment should be explosion-resistant if explosive concentrations
    of material are present. Ensure compliance with applicable exposure
    limits.
    emergency eye wash fountain and quick drench shower in the
    immediate work area.
Other Protective Equipment:Wear appropriate chemical resistant
    clothing.

Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:
*  First Aid Measures  *
First Aid: INHALATION: If adverse effects occur, remove to
    uncontaminated area. Give artificial respiration if not breathing.
    Get immediate medical attention. SKIN CONTACT: Wash skin with soap
    clothing and shoes. Get medical attention, if needed. Thoroughly
    clean and dry contaminated clothing and shoes before reuse. EYE
    Then get immediate medical attention. INGESTION: If vomiting
    occurs, keep head lower than hips to help prevent aspiration. If
    person is unconscious, turn head to side. Get medical attention
    immediately. NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: For ingestion, consider gastric
    lavage. Consider oxygen.
*  Fire Fighting Measures  *
Lower Limits:1.4%
Extinguishing Media:alcohol resistant foam, carbon dioxide, regular dry
    chemical, water, alcohol resistant foam Large fires: Use
    alcohol-resistant foam or flood with fine water spray.
Fire Fighting Procedures:Move container from fire area if it can be
    done without risk. Cool containers with water spray until well
    after the fire is out. Stay away from the ends of tanks. For fires
    in cargo or storage area: Cool containers with water from unmanned
    hose holder or monitor nozzles until well after fire is out. If
    this is impossible then take the following precautions: Keep
    unnecessary people away, isolate hazard area and deny entry. Let
    the fire burn. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from
    venting safety device or any discoloration of tanks due to fire.
    (1/2 mile). Water may be ineffective.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:Severe fire hazard. The vapor is heavier
    than air. Vapors or gases may ignite at distant ignition sources
    and flash back. Vapor/air mixtures are explosive above flash point.
*  Accidental Release Measures  *
Spill Release Procedures:Avoid heat, flames, sparks and other sources
    of ignition. Remove sources of ignition. Stop leak if possible
    without personal risk. Reduce vapors with water spray. Small
    spills: Absorb with sand or other non-combustible material. Collect
    spilled material in appropriate container for disposal. Large
    spills: Dike for later disposal. Keep unnecessary people away,
    isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind and keep out of low
    areas. Notify Local Emergency Planning Committee and State
    Emergency Response Commission for release greater than or equal to
