NY 12303.1835 USA <br /> (518) 377-8855 GENIUMi14USMINGCokP. <br /> Date October 1981 <br /> SECTION I , MATERIAL IDENTIFICATION <br /> TERIAL NAME: AUTOMOTIVE GASOLINE, LEAD-FREE <br /> DESCRIPTION: A volatile blend of hydrocarbons for automotive fuel <br /> OTHER DESIGNATIONS: Petrol, CAS #DOS 006 619, ASTM D439 <br /> MANUFACTURER: Available from several suppliers. <br /> SECTION II . INGREDIENTS AND HAZARDS % I4AZARD DATA <br /> Gasoline 100 8-hr TWA 3Q0 ppm or <br /> A hydrocarbon blend that can include normal and branched900 mg/m * <br /> chain alkanes, cycloalkanes, alkenes, aromatics and <br /> other additives.** (Lead max 0.013 g/L, phosphorus Man <br /> max 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 TFX:CNS <br /> meet antiknock requirements. (Antiknock Index min 85, <br /> ASTM D439.) <br /> _., SECTION III . PHYSICAL DATA <br /> Distillation at 1 atm, Initial, deg C >39 Specific gra%,ity, 60/60 F - 0.72--0.76 <br /> 50: distilled - 77-121 Melting point, deg C ------ -90.5-95.4 <br /> End point - --- <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 LCwER UPPER <br /> Flash Point and Method Autoignition Temp. Flammability 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 /> 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 OSFIA 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 /> n `- umwh uA °L;I , > +on is orokIbI«.
