| PRESTONE RV ANTIFREEZE MSDSP380 SECTION 1: IDENTIFICATION MSDS ID: MSDSP38O PRODUCT NAME: PRESTONE RV ANTIFREEZE Formula: YA-955, YA-967 MANUFACTURER: Prestone Products Corporation 39 Old Ridgebury Road Danbury, CT 06810-5109 INFORMATION PHONE NUMBER:(203) 830-7800 EMERGENCY PHONE NUMBER: CHEMTREC 1-800-424-9300 483-7161 in the District of Columbia MSDS DATE OF PREPARATION/REVISION: 04/22/99 SECTION 2: PRODUCT COMPONENTS HAZARDOUS COMPONENTS CAS# PERCENT EXPOSURE LIMITS Propylene Glycol 57-55-6 20-40 None Established NON-HAZARDOUS INGREDIENTS >1% Water 7732-18-5 SECTION 3: HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION EMERGENCY OVERVIEW Red-orange liquid with a characteristic odor. Not classified as flammable or combustible but will burn under fire conditions. Direct eye contact may cause transient discomfort. Not toxic by inhalation, skin contact or ingestion. POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS: ACUTE HAZARDS INHALATION: No significant adverse health effects are expected from inhalation exposure. SKIN CONTACT: No significant irritation is expected. SKIN ABSORPTION: No adverse effects are expected due to the very low systemic toxicity of propylene glycol. EYE CONTACT: Direct contact may cause stinging and tearing but no residual injury or discomfort. INGESTION: Considered relatively non-toxic following acute ingestion, however, lactic acidosis, stupor and seizures have been reported following chronic ingestion and in individuals with underlying kidney disease. MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: None currently known. CARCINOGEN: None of the components of this product are listed as a carcinogen or suspected carcinogen by IARC, NTP or OSHA. SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES INHALATION: No adverse effects are expected, however, if irritation or other symptoms develop, remove to fresh air. Seek medical attention if symptoms persist. SKIN CONTACT: Remove contaminated clothing and wash skin with soap and water. Seek medical attention if irritation develops. EYE CONTACT: Immediately flush with water, holding open eyelids, for 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation persists. INGESTION: If swallowed, get immediate medical advice by calling a physician, poison control center or emergency room. If advice is not available and a significant quantity has been swallowed, give 1 or 2 glasses of water or milk and induce vomiting. Take the victim and the product container to the nearest emergency treatment center or hospital. Do not attempt to induce vomiting or give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. NOTES TO PHYSICIAN: Following acute ingestion signs of toxicity are unlikely. Ethanol treatment as in ethylene glycol poisoning is inappropriate. There is no specific antidote. Treatment should be directed at the control of symptoms and the clinical condition. Monitor for acidosis and central nervous system effects. SECTION 5: FIRE AND EXPLOSION DATA FLASH POINT: No Flash to 190 F AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE: Not determined FLAMMABILITY LIMITS: Not determined EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Per large fires, use alcohol type or all- purpose foam. For small fires, use water spray, carbon dioxide or dry chemical. SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Firefighters should wear positive pressure self- contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing for fires in areas where chemicals are used or stored. Cool exposed container with water spray or fog. Burning liquid may float on water. UNUSUAL FIRE HAZARDS: A solid stream of water or foam directed into hot, burning liquid can cause frothing. Heat from fire may generate flammable vapor. Fine sprays or mists may be combustible at temperatures below the normal flash point. HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Burning may produce carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Wear appropriate protective clothing and equipment (See Section 8). Collect with absorbent material and place in appropriate, labeled container for disposal or, if permitted flush spill area with water. SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE Avoid eye and prolonged or repeated skin contact. Avoid breathing vapors or mists. Wash exposed skin thoroughly with soap and water after use. Keep container away from open flames and excessive heat. Do not reuse empty containers unless properly cleaned. Empty containers retain product residue and may be dangerous. Do not cut, weld, drill, etc. containers, even empty. Sudden release of hot organic chemical vapors or mists from process equipment operating at elevated temperature and pressure, or sudden ingress of air into vacuum equipment, may result in ignitions without any obvious ignition sources. Published "autoignition" or "ignition" temperatures cannot be treated as safe operating temperatures in chemical processes without analysis of the actual process conditions. Use of this product in elevated temperature applications should be thoroughly evaluated to assure safe operating conditions. SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION VENTILATION: Use general ventilation or local exhaust as required to minimize exposures. RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: None normally needed. GLOVES: None normally needed. For prolonged contact rubber or neoprene gloves can be worn. EYE PROTECTION: Safety glasses or goggles recommended if splashing is possible. OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT/CLOTHING: Appropriate protective clothing as needed to minimize skin contact. SECTION 9: PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES APPEARANCE AND ODOR: Red-orange liquid with a characteristic odor. There is no odor threshold data for this product. pH: 9.2 BOILING POINT (F): 214-218 F MELTING POINT (F): 6-13 F SOLUBILITY IN WATER: Complete SPECIFIC GRAVITY: 8.5-8.6 lbs/gal VAPOR PRESSURE: 17.0 inHg @ 68 F VAPOR DENSITY: Greater than 1 EVAPORATION RATE: Not Available PERCENT VOLATILE: Nil VISCOSITY: Not determined SECTION 10: STABILITY AND REACTIVITY STABILITY: Stable CONDITIONS TO AVOID: None INCOMPATIBILITY: Strong acids, strong oxidizing agents, and materials reactive with hydroxyl compounds DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur CONDITIONS TO AVOID: None known. SECTION 11: TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION Propylene Glycol: LD5O Oral Rat: 20 gm/kg LD50 Skin Rabbit: 20.8 gm/kg This product contains less than 0.2% tolyltriazole which has demonstrated mutagenic activity in a bacterial test system. A correlation has been established between mutagenic activity and carcinogenic activity for many chemicals. Tolyltriazole has not been identified as a carcinogen or probable carcinogen by NTP, IARC or OSHA. SECTION 12: ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION No ecotoxicity data is currently available. SECTION 13: DISPOSAL INFORMATION Dispose of product in accordance with all local, state/provincial and federal regulations.
