MATERIAL IDENTIFICATION <br /> TERIAL NAME AUTOMOTIVE GASOLINE, LEAD-FREE <br /> DESCRIPTION A volatile blend of hydrocarbons for automotive fuel <br /> OTHER DESIGNATIONS Petrol, CAS POOF 006 619, ASTM D439 <br /> MANUFACTURER Available from several suppliers. <br /> SECTION 11 . INGREDIENTS AND HAZARDS x I4AZARD DATA <br /> Gasoline 100 8-hr TWA 330 ppm or <br /> A hydrocarbon blend that can include normal and branched 900 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) oderate 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 /> :ECTION III . PHYSICAL DATA <br /> Distillation at 1 atm, Initial, deg C >39 Specific gravity, 60/60 F - 0.72-0 76 <br /> 50h distilled - 77-121 Melting point, deg C ------ -90 5-95 4 <br /> End point ----- <240 Evaporation rate --------- N/A <br /> Vapor densit} (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 LCWEa UPPER <br /> ash Point and Method Autoi nition Temp Flammability Limits In Air <br /> -45 F 1 536-853 F Z 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 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 /> c°°r*M® ""°`W=Pubbs""``orpw%'°" GENIUM PUBLISHING <br /> Jnr ccnur4Rm. wtbc.., �...
