<br /> Automotive Gasoline,Lead-free,Description:A mixmm of volatile hydrocarbons composed mainly of branched-chain R 1 NFPA
<br /> paraffins,cycloparaffias,olefins,naphtheaes,and aromatics.in general,gasoline is produced from petroleum,shale oil, S 2• 3
<br /> Athabasca tar sands,and coal.Motor gasolines are made chiefly by cracking processes,which convert heavier petroleum 1 0
<br /> fractions into more volatile fractions by thermal or catalytic decomposition.Widely used as fuel in internal combustion K 4
<br /> engines of the spark-ignited,reciprocating type.Automotive gasoline has an octane number of approximately 90.A high 'Skin
<br /> content of aromatic absorption hydrocarbons and a consequent high toxicity are also associated with a high octane rating.Some: HMIS
<br /> gasolines sold in the US contain a minor proportion of tetraethyllead,which is added in concentrations not exceeding 3 ml H 2
<br /> per gallon to prevent engine"knock."however,methyl-tent-butyl ether(MTBE)has almost completely mplaced F 3
<br /> tetraethyllead. R 1
<br /> Other Designations:CAS No.8006-61-9,benzin,gasoline,gasolene,motor spirits,natural gasoline,petrolPPG#
<br /> .
<br /> Manufacturer:Contact your supplier or distributor.Consult latest'Chonical Week Buyers'GuidecM for a suppliers list- #See.$
<br /> Cautions:Inhalation of automotive gasoline vapors can cause intense burning in throat and lungs,central nervous system(CNS)
<br /> depression,and possible fats]pulmonary edema.Gasoline is a dangerous fire and explosion hazard when exposed to heat and flames.

<br /> Extinguishing Media: Use dry chemical,carbon dioxide,or alcohol foam as extinguishing media.Use of water may be ineffective to extinguish
<br /> fire,but use water spray to knock down vapors and to cool fire-exposed drums and tanks to prevent pressure rupture.Do not use a solid stream of
<br /> water since it may spread the fueL
<br /> Unusual Fire or Explosion Hazards:Automobile gasoline is an OSHA Class IB flammable liquid and a dangerous fire and explosion hazard
<br /> when exposed to heat and flames.Vapors can flow to an ignition source and flash back.Automobile gasoline can also react violently with
<br /> oxidizing agents.
<br /> Special Fire-righting Procedures:Isolate hazard arta and deny leistry.Since fire may produce toxic fumes,wear a self-contained breathing
<br /> apparatus(SOBA)with a full facepiece operated in pressuie-demand or positive-pressure mode,and full protective ciothing.When the fire is
<br /> extinguished,use nonsparking tools for cleanup.Be aware'iof runoff from fire control methods.Do not release to sewers or waterways. '

<br /> Stnbilltr/Pol -merization:Automotive gasoline is stable at room temperature in closed containers under normal storage and handling conditions.
<br /> Hazardous polymerization cannot occur.
<br /> Chemical lncorupatlbilitles: Automotive gasoline can Tract with oxidizing materials such as peroxides,nitric acid,and perchiorates. ,
<br /> Conditions to Avoid: Avoid heat and ignition sources.
<br /> Hazardous Products of Decomposition:Thermal oxidative decomposition of automotive gasoline can produce oxides of carbon and partially
<br /> oxidized hvdrocarboas. t
