No 467 Automotive Gasoline,Lead-fo 9191 N '
<br /> Section 6 Health Hazard Data
<br /> Carcinogenicity In 1990 reports,the IARC list gasoline as a possible human carcinogen(Group 213) Although the IARC has assigned an overall
<br /> c%aluation to gasoline it has not assigned an overall evaluation to specific substances within this group(inadequate human evidence)
<br /> Summary of Risks Gasoline vapors are considered moderately poisonous Vapor inhalation can cause central nervous system(CNS)depression
<br /> and mucous membrane and respiratory tract irritation Brief inhalations of lugh concentrations can cause a fatal pulmonary edema Reported j
<br /> responses to gasoline vapor concentrations are 160 to 270 ppm causes eye and throat irritation in several hours,500 to 90o ppm causes eye,nose,
<br /> and throat Irritation,and dizziness ui 1 hr,and 2000 ppm produces rruld anesthesia in 30 min higher concentrations are intoxicating in 4 to 10
<br /> minutes If large areas of skin are exposed to gasoline,toxic amounts may be absorbed Repeated or prolonged skin exposure causes dermatilis
<br /> Certain individuals may develop hypersensitivity Ingestion can cause CNS depression Pulmonary aspiration after ingestion can cause severe
<br /> �neurrionius In adults,ingestion of 20 to 50 g gasoline may produce severe symptoms of poisoning
<br /> Iedlcal Conditions Aggravated by Lon Term Exposure None reported
<br /> Target Organs Skin,eye,respiratory and central nervous systems '
<br /> Primary Entry Routes Inhalation ingestion,clan contact,
<br /> Acute Effects Acute inhalation produces intense nose,throat,and lung immuon,headaches,blurred vision,conjunctivitis,flushing of the face,
<br /> mental confusion,staggering gait,slurred speech,and unconsciousness,sometimes with convulsions Ingesuon causes inebriation(drunkenness),
<br /> vomiting,dizziness,fever,drowsmess,confusion,and cyanosis(a blue to dark purplish coloration of skin and mucous membrane caused by lack
<br /> of oxygen) Aspiration causes choking,cough,shortness of breath,increased rate of respiration,excessively rapid heartbeat,fever,bronchitis,and
<br /> pneumoruus Other symptoms following acute exposure include acute hemorrhage of the pancreas,fatty degeneration of the liver and kidneys,
<br /> and passive congestion of spleen
<br /> Chronic Effects Chronic inhalation results in aLite loss,nausea,weight loss insomnia, and unusual sensitivity(hyperesthesia)of the distal
<br /> extremities followed by motor weakness.muscular degeneration and dnmirnshed tendon reflexes and coordination.Repeated skin exposure can '
<br /> cause blistering,drying,and lesions i
<br /> FIRST AID
<br /> E)es Gently lift the eyelids and flush immediately and continuously with flooding amounts of water until transported to an emergency medical
<br /> facility Consult a physician immediately
<br /> Skin Quickly remove contaminated clothing Raise with flooding amounts of water for at least 15 min For reddened or blistered skirl,consult a '
<br /> physician Wash affected area with soap and water
<br /> Inhalation Remove exposed person to fresh air and support breathingg as needed
<br /> Ingestion Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious or eonvulsmg person If inesw4 do not induce vomiting due to aspiration hazard
<br /> Give conscious victim amutture of 2 tablespoons of activated charcoal mixed in 8 oz of water to dunk-Consult a physician immediately
<br /> After First aid,get appropriate in-plant,paramedic,or community medical support. '
<br /> Section 7. Spill, Leak, and Disposal Procedures
<br /> Splll/Leak Notify safety personnel,evacuate all unnecessary personnel,remove heat and ignition sources,and provide maximum explosion-proof
<br /> ventilation.Cleanup personnel should protect against vapor inhalation and liquid contact Use nonsparkrng tools Take up small spills with sand or ,
<br /> other noncombustible adsorbent.Dike storage areas to control leaks and spills Follow applicable OSHA regulations(29 CFR 1910 120)
<br /> Aquatic Toxicity Bluegill,freshwater,LC ,8 ppm/96 hr
<br /> D tsposal Contact your supplier or a liLris;M contractor for detailed recommendations Follow applicable Federal,state,and local regulations
<br /> EPAazaatlons
<br /> Hazardous rdous Waste(40 CFR 261 21) Characteristic of ignitability
<br /> CERCLA Hazardous Substance(40 CFR 302 4) Not listed
<br /> SARA Extremely Hazardous Substance(40 CFR 355) Not listed
<br /> SARA Toxic Chemical(40 CFR 372 65) Not listed
<br /> OSHA Designations
<br /> Listed as an Air Contaminant(29 CFR 1910 1000,Table Z-1-A)
<br /> Section 8 Special Protection Data
<br /> Goggles Wear protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles,per OSHA c3 e-and face-protection regulations(29 CFR 1910 133) Since
<br /> contact lens use in industry+is controversial,establish your own policy '
<br /> Respirator Seek professional advice prior to respirator selection and use Follow OSHA respirator regulations (29 CFR 1910 134)and,if
<br /> necessary,wear a l+IIOSH-approved respirator There are no specific NIOSH recommendauons However, for vapor concentrations not immedi-
<br /> ately dangerous to life or health,use cherrucal cartridge respirator equipped with organic vapor cartridge(s),or a supplied-sir respirator For
<br /> emergency or nonroutine operations(cleaning spills,reactor vessels,or storage tanks),wear an SCBA WWarning r Air-purifying respirators do not
<br /> protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres '
<br /> Other Wear impervious gloves,boots,aprons,andgauntlets to prevent prolonged or repeated skin contact.Matenals such as neoprene or
<br /> polyvinyl alcohol provide excellent/good resistance for protective clothing Note Resistance of specific materials can vary from product to
<br /> pproduct
<br /> Ventilatlon Provide general and local explosion-proof exhaust ventilation systems to maintain airborne concentrauons below the OSHA PELs
<br /> (Sec 2) Local exhaust ventilation is preferred since it prevents contaminant dispersion into the work area by controlling it at its source t10n
<br /> Safety Stations Make available in the work area emergency eyewash stations,safety/quick-drench showers and washing facilities
<br /> Contaminated Equipment Remove this matenal from your shoes and equipment.Launder contarrunated clothing before wem-Lng
<br /> Comments Never eat,drunk,or smoke in work areas Practice good personal hygiene after using this material,especially before eating,druilang,
<br /> smoking,using the toilet,or applying cosmetics '
<br /> Section 9. Special Precautions and Comments
<br /> Storage Requirements.Store in closed containers in a cool,dry,well-ventilated area away from heal and ignition sources and strong oxidizing ,
<br /> agents Protect containers From physical damage Avoid direct sunlight.Storage must meet requirements of OSHA Class IB liquid outside or
<br /> detached storage preferred.
<br /> Engineering Controls Avoid vapor inhalation and skin or eye contact.Consider a respiratory protection program that includes regular trairurig,
<br /> mannieriance,ugZuon,and evaluation Indoor use of this maternal requires explosion-proof exhaust ventilation to remove vapors Only use
<br /> gasoline as a fuel source due to its volatility and flammable/explosive nature Practice good personal hygiene and housekeeping procedures Wear '
<br /> clean work clothing daily
