• <br /> HCS E WSA <br /> MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET <br /> Jet Fuel JP-8 MSDS No. 4088 <br /> CHRONIC EFFECTS and CARCINOGENICITY <br /> Similar products produced skin cancer and systemic toxicity in laboratory animals following repeated <br /> applications. The significance of these results to human exposures has not been determined- see <br /> Section 11 Toxicological Information. <br /> MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE <br /> Irritation from skin exposure may aggravate existing open wounds, skin disorders, and dermatitis (rash). <br /> 4. FIRST AID MEASURES <br /> EYES <br /> In case of contact with eyes, immediately flush with clean, low-pressure water for at least 15 min. Hold <br /> eyelids open to ensure adequate flushing. Seek medical attention. <br /> SKIN <br /> Remove contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated areas thoroughly with soap and water or waterless <br /> hand cleanser. Obtain medical attention if irritation or redness develops. Thermal burns require <br /> immediate medical attention depending on the severity and the area of the body burned. <br /> INGESTION <br /> DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Do not give liquids. Obtain immediate medical attention. If spontaneous <br /> vomiting occurs, lean victim forward to reduce the risk of aspiration. Monitor for breathing difficulties. <br /> Small amounts of material which enter the mouth should be rinsed out until the taste is dissipated. <br /> INHALATION <br /> Remove person to fresh air. If person is not breathing provide artificial respiration. If necessary, provide <br /> additional oxygen once breathing is restored if trained to do so. Seek medical attention immediately. <br /> 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES <br /> FLAMMABLE PROPERTIES: <br /> FLASH POINT: > 100 °Fj (38°C) TCC <br /> AUTOIGNITION POINT: 410 OF (210°C) <br /> OSHA/NFPA FLAMMABILITY CLASS: 2 (COME USTIBLE) <br /> LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT(%): 0.7 <br /> UPPER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (%): 5.0 <br /> FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS <br /> Vapors may be ignited rapidly when exposed to heat, spark, open flame or other source of ignition. <br /> When mixed with air and exposed to an ignition source, flammable vapors can burn in the open or <br /> explode in confined spaces. Being heavier than air, vapors may travel long distances to an ignition source <br /> and flash back. Runoff to sewer may cause fire or explosion hazard. <br /> EXTINGUISHING MEDIA <br /> SMALL FIRES: Any extinguisher suitable for Class B fires, dry chemical, CO2, water spray, fire fighting <br /> foam, or Halon. <br /> LARGE FIRES: Water spray, fog or fire fighting foam. Water may be ineffective for fighting the fire, but <br /> may be used to cool fire-exposed containers. <br /> FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS <br /> Small fires in the incipient(beginning) stage may typically be extinguished using handheld portable fire <br /> extinguishers and other fire fighting equipment. <br /> Firefighting activities that may result in potential exposure to high heat, smoke or toxic by-products of <br /> combustion should require NIOSH/MSHA- approved pressure-demand self-contained breathing <br /> apparatus with full facepiece and full protective clothing. <br /> Isolate area around container involved in fire. Cool tanks, shells, and containers exposed to fire and <br /> excessive heat with water. For massive fires the use of unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles may <br /> Revision Date: 7/1/2006 Page 2 of 7 <br />
