ADDITIONAL HEALTH DATA ENVIRONMENTAL PR TION x-IRC03I J04-85)Methane gas is classified as a simple Environmental Impact: Certain geographical asphyxiant. High concentrations in air areas have air pollution restrictions may produce asphyxia by contributing to concerning the use of materials in work oxygen deficiency. -Signs and symptoms situations which may release volatile which precede asphyxia may include ' rapid components to the atmosphere. Air " respiration, loss of mental alertness and pollution regulations should be studied to coordination, dizziness, nausea and determine if this material is regulated in vomiting. Continued exposure may result the area where it is to be used. in prostration, convulsions, coma and Precautions if Material is Released or death. Contact with the liquid may cause Spilled: Eliminate all sources of ignition frostbite. Symptoms of frostbite are skin in vicinity of spill or released vapor. color change to gray or white, cold Stop the source of the leak or release. feeling and numbness. Clean up releases as soon as possible, observing precautions in Special SPECIAL PROTECTIVE INFORMATION Protective Information—Contain liquid to Eye Protection: Chemical safety goggles prevent further contamination of soil, must be worn if there is a likelihood of surface water or groundwater. exposure to the liquid. Waste Disposal Methods: Place contaminated Skin Protection: When working with liquid materials in disposable containers and use leather gloves required by the dispose of in a manner consistent with process. applicable regulations. Contact local Respiratory Protection: Wear approved environmental or health authorities for respiratory protection such as an organic approved disposal of this material. vapor cartridge respirator or an air- supplying respirator unless ventilation is REACTIVITY DATA adequate. Stability (Thermal, Light, etc.): Stable Ventilation: Use this material only in Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid): well ventilated areas. Explosive with air, oxygen, chlorine, bromine pentafluoride, chlorine dioxide, FIRE PROTECTION and other oxygen and halogen sources. This product presents an extreme fire Hazardous Decomposition Products: hazard. Liquid very quickly evaporates, Ethylene, acetylene, hydrogen (only at even at low temperatures, and forms vapor very high temperatures) (fumes) which can catch fire and burn with Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur. explosive violence. Invisible vapor spreads easily and can be set on fire by PHYSICAL PROPERTIES :many sources such as pilot lights, welding Solubility: Soluble in petroleum equipment, and electrical motors and hydrocarbons, slightly soluble in alcohol switches. and ether, and very slightly soluble in Flash Point: <-260°F water. 3utoignition Temp.: 1000°F Appearance (Color, Odor, etc.): Colorless, Flammability Limits: 5-15% odorless, tasteless gas, 3xtinguishing Media: Stop gas flow. Use Boiling Point: -259OF eater spray to help adjacent areas cool. Melting Point: -296oF allow fire to burn itself out.
