MATERIAL IDENTIFICATION <br /> MATERIAL NAME AUTOMOTIVE GASOLINE, LEAD-TREE <br /> DESCRIPTION A volatile blend of hydrocarbons for automotive fuel <br /> OTHER DESIGNATIONS Petrol, CAS #COP 006 619, ASTM D439 <br /> MANUFACTURER Available from several sLppliers. <br /> SECTION II . 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 ut% 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 gravity, 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 Autoi nit- 53 F % by volume ion Tem Flammabilitv Limits In Air <br /> -45 F 5361 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 /> nyr.iltra © IOU <br /> wftt mi r..bbshGeg Corpa.ula. <br /> M ..
