HAZARDOUS PROPERTY INFORMATION <br />EXPLANATIONS AND FOOTNOTES <br />Water solubility is expressed in different terms in different references. Many references use the term <br />"insoluble" for materials that will not readily mix with water, such as gasoline. However, most of these <br />materials are water soluble at the part per million or part per billion level. Gasoline, for example, is <br />' insoluble in the gross sense, and will be found as a discrete layer on top of the groundwater. But certain <br />gasoline constituents, such as benzene, toluene, and xylene will also be found in solution in the <br />groundwater at the part per million of part per billion level. <br />a. Water solubility expressed as 0.2 g means 0.2 grams per 100 grams water at 20°C. <br />b. Solubility of metals depends on the compound in which they are present. <br />'C. Several chlorinated hydrocarbons exhibit no flash point in conventional sense, but will burn in <br />presence of high energy ignition source or will form explosive mixtures at temperatures above <br />200°F. <br />d. Practically non-flammable under standard conditions. <br />e. Expressed as mm Hg under standard conditions. <br />f. Explosive concentrations of airborne dust can occur in confined areas. <br />g. Values for Threshold Limit Value -Time Weighted Average (TLV -TWA) are OSHA Permissible <br />Exposure Limits except where noted in h and i. <br />1 h. TLV -TWA adopted by the American Conference of Governmental industrial Hygienists, which <br />is lower than the OSHA PEL. <br />TLV -TWA recommended by the national institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). <br />A TLV or PEL has not been adopted by ACGIH or OSHA. <br />Ik. Dermal Toxicity data is summarized in the following three categories: <br />1 <br />Skin Penetration <br />- A - negligible penetration (solid -polar) <br />+ B - slight penetration (solid -nonpolar) <br />++ C - moderate penetration (liquid/solid-nonpolar) <br />+++ D - high penetration (gas/liquid-nonpolar) <br />Systemic Potency <br />E - <br />slight hazard - LD,,, = 500-15,000 mg/kg <br />lethal dose for 70 kg man = 1 pint -1 quart <br />ILAI 0 00015044 11WP150441k27.doc A-5 <br />j.
