SECTION 2: HAZARDOUS COMPONENT INFORMATION Hazardous Ingredients CAS Number Wt. % p-dichlorobenzene (1,4-dichlorobenzene) 106-46-7 95+ SECTION 3: HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION Emergency Overview: White balls, blocks, crystals, nuggets or tablets. Some products may be incased in paper bags (packets) or plastic containers and some products contain fragrance. Harmful if swallowed or inhaled. Dust and vapors may cause eye and respiratory tract irritation. Flammable. Potential Health Effects: Relevant Routes of Exposure: Inhalation, Ingestion, Eye Contact, Skin Contact. Acute Effects: Ingestion: Symptoms may also include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach distress. Eyes: Vapors may cause irritation. Dust or particles can cause severe irritation. Inhalation: Dust and vapors can cause respiratory tract irritation. Vapor concentrations of p- dichlorobenzene that exceed permissible exposure limits can cause central nervous system depression. Symptoms could include the dizziness, blurred vision, nausea, feeling of drunkenness, unconsciousness and even death. Skin: Repeated or prolonged contact may cause a skin irritation. Carcinogenicity: Listed by NTP and IARC as a carcinogen. Reproductive Effects: None known. Target Organs: Ocular, respiratory, dermal, liver, kidneys, central nervous (CNS). Medical Conditions Aggravated By Exposure: Liver, kidney, chronic respiratory disease. SECTION 4: FIRST AID PROCEDURES First Aid Procedures: EYES: Immediately flush eyes with a directed stream of water for at least 15 minutes, forcibly holding eyelids apart to ensure complete irrigation of all eye and lid tissue. Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first five minutes and continue rinsing the eye. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. SKIN: Immediately flush skin with plenty of water while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. If irritation occurs, get medical attention. Page 3 of 9 INHALATION: Move person to fresh air. If person is not breathing, call 911 or an ambulance, then give artificial respiration preferably mouth-to-mouth if possible. Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment advice. INGESTION: Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call poison control center or doctor immediately for treatment advice. Have person rinse the mouth with water. If able to swallow, have the person sip a glass of water. Do not induce vomiting unless told to do so by a poison control center or doctor. NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Treatment is mainly symptomatic and supportive. SECTION 5: FIRE HAZARDS, Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Flammable solid, liquid and vapors. Fire Fighting Procedures: NIOSH approved positive pressure, self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective turn- out gear. Evacuate personnel to an area upwind to avoid smoke and vapors. Remove containers of this material if it can be done safely. Use water to keep fire exposed containers cool. Protective clothing and equipment must be decontaminated if contact with the material or vapors has occurred. Extinguishing Media: All common extinguishing media are suitable. Conditions to Avoid: Elevated temperatures. Hazardous Combustion Products: May produce irritating and toxic smoke and fumes. The composition of the combustion products have not been determined. Flash Point: 65o C (Cleveland Open Cup) Flammability Limits: Lower: Not determined Upper: Not determined Autoignition Temperature: Not determined. SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Pre-Entry Spill Procedure: Shut off source of spill if it is safe to do so. Eliminate sources of ignition. Review Section 3 - Hazards Identification and Section 8- Exposure Control/Personal Protection before proceeding with the clean up. Clean Up and Containment: Scoop or shovel spilled material into suitable labeled containers with a tight fitting lid. Secure the drum cover and move the container to a safe holding area. Check area for residual material and repeat clean up if detected. Environmental Concerns: None known. Page 4 of 9 Treatment and Disposal: Decontaminate or dispose of all protective clothing and equipment. See Section 13 - Disposal Recommendations for disposal information. Reporting Requirements: The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has established a Reportable Quantity (RQ) for release of this material. See Section 15. Report all releases, which are likely to endanger the public health, harm the environment, or cause complaint to the appropriate State or Local officials. SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE General Measures: Store at room temperature, in airtight containers and protect from light. Do not generate dust or exposure to ignition source. Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Materials or Conditions to Avoid: Contact with oxidizing and reducing agents. Elevated temperatures. SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION General Hygienic Practices: Do not get on eyes, skin, or clothing. Do not breathe vapors, dust or fumes. Wash thoroughly after handling. Recommended Exposure Limits: p-dichlorobenzene: ACGIH TLV: 10 ppm (60 mg/m3) 8-hr TWA A3* *ACGIH has designated this component as an "A3" substance thereby including it among substances that are animal carcinogens with unknown relevance to man. OSHA PEL: 75 ppm (450 mg/m3 ) 8-hr TWA Mexican OEL: 450 mg/m3 8-hr TWA Mexican OEL: 675 mg/m3 15-minute STEL Personal Protective Equipment: Eyewear: Chemical goggles. Skin: Gloves are required if there is a potential for skin contact. A plastic or Vitron polyvinyl alcohol provides a physical barrier is required. Use disposable spun polyolefin (e.g. Tyvek) coveralls or equivalent to protect against contact. Consult the glove and clothing manufacturers, suppliers and/or industrial hygienist for further information. Respiratory Protection: Respiratory protection is required whenever air contamination (dust, mist, or vapors) is generated by the process. A NIOSH approved high efficiency toxic dust/mist/fume respirator is recommended. Page 5 of 9 Work Practices and Engineering Controls: General room ventilation is adequate unless the process generates dust or fumes. Work-clothing should be removed in a change room on site and laundered professionally. Employees should shower and change into street clothes before leaving the facility. Prevent the accumulation of dust in the work area by thorough periodic cleaning of the area. Protective Measures During Repair and Maintenance: No special measures are required. Follow the recommendation for personal protective equipment. SECTION 9: PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Physical State: Balls, blocks, crystals, nuggets or tablets.
