HE55 <br /> MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET <br /> Diesel Fuel All Types) MSDS No. 9909 <br /> RESPIRATORY PROTECTION <br /> A NIOSH/MSHA-approved air-purifying respirator with organic vapor cartridges or canister may be <br /> permissible under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are or may be expected to <br /> exceed exposure limits or for odor or irritation. Protection provided by air-purifying respirators is limited. <br /> Refer to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134, NIOSH Respirator Decision Logic, and the manufacturer for additional <br /> guidance on respiratory protection selection. <br /> Use a positive pressure, air-supplied respirator if there is a potential for uncontrolled release, exposure <br /> levels are not known, in oxygen-deficient atmospheres, or any other circumstance where an air-purifying <br /> respirator may not provide adequate protection. <br /> 9. PHYSICAL and CHEMICAL PROPERTIES <br /> APPEARANCE <br /> Clear, straw-yellow liquid. Dyed fuel oil will be red or reddish-colored. <br /> ODOR <br /> Mild, petroleum distillate odor <br /> BASIC PHYSICAL PROPERTIES <br /> BOILING RANGE: 320 to 690 of(160 to 366 °C) <br /> VAPOR PRESSURE: 0.009 psia @ 70 OF(21°C) <br /> VAPOR DENSITY(air= 1): > 1.0 <br /> SPECIFIC GRAVITY(H2O= 1): 0.83 to 0.88 @ 60 OF(16°C) <br /> PERCENT VOLATILES: 100 % <br /> EVAPORATION RATE: Slow; varies with conditions <br /> SOLUBILITY(H2O): Negligible <br /> 10. STABILITY and REACTIVITY <br /> STABILITY: Stable. Hazardous polymerization will not occur. <br /> CONDITIONS TO AVOID and INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS <br /> Avoid high temperatures, open flames, sparks, welding, smoking and other ignition sources. Keep away <br /> from strong oxidizers;Viton @; Fluorel @ <br /> HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS <br /> Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and non-combusted hydrocarbons(smoke). <br /> 11. TOXICOLOGICAL PROPERTIES <br /> ACUTE TOXICITY <br /> Acute dermal LD50 (rabbits): > 5 ml/kg Acute oral LD50 (rats): 9 ml/kg <br /> Primary dermal irritation: extremely irritating (rabbits) Draize eye irritation: non-irritating (rabbits) <br /> Guinea pig sensitization: negative <br /> CHRONIC EFFECTS AND CARCINOGENICITY <br /> Carcinogenic: OSHA: NO IARC: NO NTP: NO ACGIH: A3 <br /> Studies have shown that similar products produce skin tumors in laboratory animals following repeated <br /> applications without washing or removal. The significance of this finding to human exposure has not <br /> been determined. Other studies with active skin carcinogens have shown that washing the animal's skin <br /> with soap and water between applications reduced tumor formation. <br /> MUTAGENICITY(genetic effects) <br /> This material has been positive in a mutagenicity study. <br /> Revision Date: 10/18/2006 Page 5 of 7 <br />
