MSDS No.470 Diesel Fuel Oil No.2-D 3/98 <br /> Medical Conditions Aggravated by Long-Term Exposure:None reported. <br /> Chronic Effects:Prolonged or repeated skin contact causes dermatitis and possible systemic toxicity.Prolonged or repeated <br /> inhalation can cause CNS and peripheral nervous system damage. <br /> Inhalation:Remove exposed person to fresh air and support breathing as needed. <br /> Eye Contact:Do not allow victim to rub or keep eyes tightly shut.Gently lift eyelids and flush immediately and continuously <br /> with flooding amounts of water for at least 15 minutes.Consult a physician or ophthalmologist if pain and/or irritation develops. <br /> Skin Contact:Quickly remove contaminated clothing.Rinse with flooding amounts of water followed by washing the exposed <br /> area with soap and water.For reddened or blistered skin,consult a physician. <br /> Ingestion:Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person.Have the conscious and alert person drink 1 <br /> to 2 glasses of water.Contact a poison control center.Because of aspiration risk,do not induce vomiting unless the poison <br /> control center advises otherwise. <br /> Af ter fust aA get appropriate in plank paramedic,or community medical support <br /> Note to Physicians:Gastric lavage is contraindicated due to aspiration risk.Instead,consider administration of charcoal or milk. <br /> If ingestion amount is large,gastric emptying in the alert patient can be accomplished through administration of Syrup of <br /> Ipecac.Treat overexposure symptomatically and supportively. <br /> Flash Point: 100.4°F(38°C) NFPA <br /> Flash Point Method:CC <br /> Autoignition Temperature:351-624°F(177-329°C) 2 <br /> LEL: 1.3%v/v 0 0 <br /> UEL:75%v/v <br /> Flammability Classification:OSHA Class II Combustible Liquid <br /> Extinguishing Media:Use dry chemical,carbon dioxide,foam,low velocity water fog or spray.Use a smothering technique to <br /> extinguish fire.Water may be ineffective in putting out a fine involving diesel fuel oil no.2-D,and a solid water stream may <br /> spread the flames;however,a water spray may be used to cool fire-exposed containers,and flush spills away from ignition <br /> sources. <br /> Unusual Fire or Explosion Hazards:Vapor or mist can form explosive mixtures in air.In still air,the heavier-than-air vapors <br /> of diesel fuel oil no.2-D from a targe source may travel along low-lying surfaces to distant sources of ignition and flash back to <br /> the material source.Containers may explode in heat of fire. <br /> Hazardous Combustion Products:Heating diesel fuel oil no.2-D to decomposition can produce acrid smoke and irritating <br /> vapors. <br /> Fire-Fighting Instructions:Do not release runoff from fire control methods to sewers or waterways. <br /> Fire-Fighting Equipment:Because fire may produce toxic thermal decomposition products,wear a self-contained breathing <br /> apparatus(SCBA)with a full facepiece operated in pressure-demand or positive-pressure mode. <br /> Secta 6 - Are eases <br /> Spm/Leak Procedures:Eliminate all ignition sources(no smoking,flares,sparks or flames in immediate area).Ground all <br /> equipment used when handling this product.Do not touch or walk through spilled material.Stop leak if you can do it without <br /> risk.Prevent entry into waterways,sewers,basements or confined areas.A fire fighting foam may be used to suppress vapors. <br /> Absorb or cover with dry earth,sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers.Use clean non-sparking tools <br /> to collect absorbed material. <br /> Small Spills:Absorb diesel fuel oil no.2-D with vermiculite,earth,sand or similar material. <br /> Large Spills <br /> Containment:For large spills,consider downwind evacuation of at least 1000 ft(300 m).Dike far ahead of liquid spill for <br /> later disposal.Do not release into sewers or waterways. <br /> Cleanup:Ground all equipment.Use non-sparking tools.Spills can be absorbed with materials such as peat,activated carbon, <br /> polyurethane foam,or straw.Sinking agents,gelling agents,dispersants,and mechanical systems can also be use to treat oil <br /> spills. <br /> Regulatory Requirements:Follow applicable OSHA regulations(29 CFR 1910.120). <br /> Handling Precautions:Avoid vapor or mist inhalation,and skin and eye contact.Use only with ventilation sufficient to reduce <br /> airborne concentrations to non-hazardous levels(see Sec.2).Wear protective gloves(or use barrier cream),and clothing(see <br /> Sec.8).Keep away from heat and ignition sources.Ground and bond all containers during transfers to prevent static sparks. <br /> Use non-sparking tools to open and close containers. <br /> Page 2 of 4 cam&01998 cnn=Fanlubm*cotpo-mm Any comm mal we a <br /> repomuaam wimwe the publi.hc's pamiu;on n pohibibd. <br />
