NY 12303-1836 USA <br /> (51$) 377.8855 GENJUM PUBUSNlNG CORP. <br /> Date October 1981 <br /> SECTION 1 . MATERIAL IDENTIFICATION <br /> IATERIAL NAME: AUTOMOTIVE GASOLINE, LEAD-FREE <br /> DESCRIPTION: A volatile blend of hydrocarbons for automotive fuel <br /> OTHER DESIGNATIONS: Petrol, CAS #00F 006619, ASTM D439 <br /> MANUFACTURER: Available from several suppliers. <br /> SECTION 11 . INGREDIENTS AND HAZARDS x HAZARD DA-A <br /> Gasoline 10.0 8-hr TWA 3¢0 ppm or <br /> A hydrocarbon blend that can include normal and'branched 900 mg/m <br /> chain alkanes, cycloalkane5, alkenes, aromatics and <br /> other additives.** (Lead.-max 0.013 g/L, phosphorus Man <br /> mai: 0.0013 g/L, sulfur max 0.10 wt%. May contain Eye: 500 ppm/1H <br /> benzene, <5%; see ASTM D3606). Moderate irritation <br /> *ACGIH 1981 TLV (Intended Changes List). See also <br /> Am. Ind. Hyg. A. 39 110-117 (1978) Inhalation: <br /> **The composition of fuel is varied with altitude and TCLo 900 ppm/1H <br /> seasonal requirements for a'locality. The blend must TFXsCNS <br /> meet antiknock requirements. (Antiknock Index min 85, <br /> ASTM D439.) 11 <br /> I SECTION II1 , PHYSICAL DATA <br /> Distillation at 1 atm, Initial, deg C >39 Specific gravity, 60/60 F - 0.72-0,76 <br /> 50% distilled - 77-121 Melting point, deg C ------ -90,5-45,4 <br /> Endpoint ----- <240 Evaporation rate --------- N/A <br /> vapor density (Air-1) ------------- 3.0-4.0 <br /> Solubility in water --------------- Insoluble <br /> Appearance and Odor: A clear, mobile liquid with a characteristic odor which can be <br /> recognized at about 10 ppm in air.; (Gasoline may be colored with dye.) <br /> SECTION IV, FIRE AND EXPLOSION DATA LOWER UPPER <br /> Flash Point and Method Autoi nation Tem . IFlammability Limits In Air <br /> -45 F 536-853 F /, by volume 1.4 7,6 <br /> Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, alcohol foam. Use of water may be <br /> ineffective to extinguish fire, but use water-spray for cooling fire-exposed drums <br /> and tanks to prevent pressure rupture. It is a dangerous fire and explosion hazard <br /> when exposed to heat and flames. Vapors can flow along surfaces, reach distant igni- <br /> tion sources and flash back. Can react violently with oxidizing agents. <br /> F Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. <br /> SECTION V. REACTIVITY DATA <br /> This is a stable material in closed containers at room temperature under normal storage <br /> and handling conditions. It does not undergo hazardous polymerization. <br /> This is an OSHA Class IA flammable liquid. A mixture of ,gasoline vapors and air can be <br /> explosive. It is incompatible with oxidizing agents. <br /> Thermal-oxidative degradation can yield carbon monoxide and partially oxidized <br /> hydrocarbons. <br /> v <br /> CoPYr4thl C' 1WW Geelk.Pubb hiM C—pwubon <br /> M. w" W"Wl Pubu.be.',SPWTK Peesnhalnn t,p'y,tb"W.
