Page 3 of "/ <br />Extinguishing Media: Use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or appropriate foam. Water may be <br />ineffective because It will not cool material below its flash point. <br />Flash Point: -20 deg C ( -4.00 deg F) <br />Autoignition Temperature: 465 deg C ( 869.00 deg F) <br />Explosion Limits, Lower:2.5% <br />Upper: 12.8% <br />NFPA Rating: (estimated) Health: 1; Flammability: 3; Instability: 0 <br />Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures <br />General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8. <br />Spills/Leaks: Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth), then place in <br />suitable container. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and ditches which lead to waterways. Wear <br />appropriate protective clothing to minimize contact with skin. Remove all sources of ignition. <br />Provide ventilation. A vapor suppressing foam may be used to reduce vapors. Water spray may <br />reduce vapor but may not prevent ignition in closed spaces. Use only non -sparking tools and <br />equipment. <br />Section 7 - Handling and Storage <br />Handling: Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before <br />reuse. Ground and bond containers when transferring material. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, <br />and clothing. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be <br />dangerous. Keep container tightly closed. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, <br />or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames. Use only with adequate ventilation. <br />Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Avoid breathing vapor. <br />Storage: Keep away from sources of ignition. Store In a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, <br />dry, well -ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Fla mmables-area. <br />Section 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection <br />Engineering Controls: Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an <br />eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate general or local exhaust ventilation to keep <br />airborne concentrations below the permissible exposure limits. Ventilation fans and other <br />electrical service must be non -sparking and have an explosion -proof design. <br />Exposure Limits <br />Chemical Name <br />ACGIH <br />NIOSH <br />OSHA - Final PELs <br />Acetone <br />500 ppm • TWA750 ppm <br />250 ppm TWA; 590 <br />mg/m3 TWA 2500 ppm <br />1000 ppm TWA; 2400 <br />STEL <br />IDLH (10% LEL)mg/m3 <br />TWA <br />OSHA Vacated PELs: Acetone: 750 ppm TWA; 1800 mg/m3 TWA <br />Personal Protective Equipment <br />Eyes: Wear chemical splash goggles. <br />Skin: Wear butyl rubber gloves, apron, and/or clothing. <br />Clothing: Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin exposure. <br />Respirators: A NIOSH/MSHA approved or European Standard EN 149 air purifying respirator <br />http://fscimage.fishersci.conVmsds/00140.htm 2/4/2016 <br />
