| CAS# | Chemical Name | Percent | EINECS/ELINCS |
| 75-86-5 | Acetone Cyanohydrin | > 98 | 200-909-4 |
Appearance:
colorless liquid. Flash Point: 73.8 deg C.
Danger! May be fatal if absorbed through the skin. Harmful or fatal if swallowed.
| Combustible liquid and vapor. May cause eye and skin irritation. May cause respiratory and digestive tract irritation. May cause central nervous system depression. May cause liver and kidney damage. Metabolized to cyanide in the body, which may cause headache, dizziness,weakness, unconsciousness, convulsions, coma and possible death. |
Target Organs:
Kidneys, central nervous system, liver.
Potential Health Effects:
| Eye: | May cause eye irritation. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and corneal damage. |
| Skin: | May be fatal if absorbed through the skin. May be metabolized to cyanide which in turn acts by inhibiting cytochrome oxidase impairing cellular respiration. May cause irritation and dermatitis. May cause cyanosis of the extremities. |
| Ingestion: | May be fatal if swallowed. May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause liver and kidney damage. Metabolism may release cyanide, which may result in headache, dizziness, weakness, collapse, unconsciousness and possible death. Human fatalities have been reported from acute poisoning. Ingestion may result in symptoms similar to cyanide poisoning which is characterized by asphyxiation. |
| Inhalation: |
May cause respiratory tract irritation. May cause liver and kidney damage.Aspiration may lead to pulmonary edema. May be metabolized to cyanide which in turns act by inhibiting cytochrome oxidase impairing cellular respiration. Inhalation may result in symptoms similar to cyanide poisoning which include tachypnea, hyperpnea (abnormally rapid or deep breathing), and dyspnea (labored breathing) followed rapidly by respiratory depression. Pulmonary edema may occur. Inhalation at high concentrations may cause CNS depression and asphixiation. |
| Chronic: | May cause liver and kidney damage. May be metabolized to cyanide which in turn acts by inhibiting cytochrome oxidase impairing cellular respiration. |
| Eyes: | Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid imme diately. |
| Skin: |
Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Discard contaminated clothing in a manner which limits further exposure. SPEEDY ACTION IS CRITICAL! |
| Ingestion: | Do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical aid immediately. |
| Inhalation: | Get medical aid immediately. Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing has ceased apply artificial respiration using oxygen and a suitable mechanical device such as a bag and a mask. |
| Notes to Physician: | Treat symptomatically and supportively. |
| General Information: |
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressuredemand,MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Water may be ineffective. Material is lighter than water and a fire may be spread by the use of water. Combustible liquid. Vapors may be heavier than air.They can spread along the ground and collect in low or confined areas. Containers may explode when heated. |
| Extinguishing Media: | In case of fire, use water, dry chemical, chemical foam, or alcoholresistant foam. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers. Water may be ineffective. |
| Flash Point: | 73.8 deg C ( 164.84 deg F) |
| Autoignition Temperature: | 688 deg C ( 1,270.40 deg F) |
| Explosion Limits, Lower: | 2.2 |
| Upper: | 12.0 |
| NFPA Rating: | (estimated) Health: 4; Flammability: 1; Instability: 2 |
General Information:
Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8.
|
Spills/Leaks: Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth), then place in suitable container. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and ditches which lead to waterways. Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Remove all sources of ignition. Use a spark-proof tool. Provide ventilation. |
Handling:
| Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash hands before eating. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Use only in a well-ventilated area. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Keep container tightly closed.Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Do not get on skin or in eyes. Do not ingest or inhale. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose empty containers to heat,sparks or open flames. |
Storage:
| Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of ignition. Store in a cool, dry place. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. |
Engineering Controls:
| Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low. |
