Titanium ethoxide, liquid

FLASH PT: N.A.    Method Used:   Unknown
EXPLOSIVE LIMITS: LEL:  NE          UEL:  NE
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
USE: Use dry chemical or carbon dioxide exitinguishing agent

SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES
Firefighters must wear full face, self-contained breathing apparatus with full protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes. Fumes from fire are hazardous. Isolate runoff to prevent environmental pollution.

UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS
The flashpoint (PMCC) of freshly made titanium ethoxide is 33-43 degC. If this material is exposed to water or to moist air, it will react, producing the alcohol associated with the titanium. This will cause the flash point to decrease. The flash point (PMCC) of a mixture of 80% (wt.) Titanium ethoxide and 20% (wt.) water, after 20 minute exposure, is 24 degree C. this water-exposed product should then be considered as DOT flammable.

Flammable Liquid. Vapor forms explosive mixture with air.

HEALTH HAZARDS (ACUTE AND CHRONIC)
TITANIUM: This material is generally considered to be physiologically inert. There are no reported cases in the literature where titanium as such has caused human intoxication. The dusts of titanium or most titanium compounds such as titanium oxide may be placed in the nuisance category. (Sax, Dangerous Properties of Industrial Materials, eighth edition)

INHALATION:
Acute: CAUTION MAY BE POISONOUS BY INHALATION. May cause irritation to the lungs and respiratory tract.
Chronic: No chronic health effects recorded.

INGESTION:
Acute: May cause severe irritation to the gastrointestinal tract.
Chronic: No chronic health effects recorded.

SKIN:
Acute: CAUTION MAY BE POISONOUS BY SKIN ABSORBTION. May cause severe irritation.
Chronic: May cause dermatitis.

EYE:
Acute: May cause severe irritation. May cause loss of vision.
Chronic: No chronic health effects recorded.

TARGET ORGANS: No target organs recorded.
CARCINOGENICITY: NTP? No       IARC Monographs? No       OSHA Regulated? No
RECOMMENDED EXPOSURE LIMITS
See "Section II"
LD 50 / LC 50
No toxicity data recorded
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
INHALATION: May cause dizziness, a sense of suffocation, sneezing, coughing and difficulty breathing.

INGESTION: May cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and possible burns to the mouth, throat and esophagus.
SKIN: May cause redness, chemical burns, inflammation and itching.

EYE: May cause redness, itching, inflammation, chemical burns and watering.

MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE
None recorded.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
INHALATION: Remove victim to fresh air; keep warm and quiet; give oxygen if breathing is difficult and seek medical attention.

INGESTION: Give 1-2 glasses of milk or water; DO NOT induce vomiting; seek medical attention.

SKIN: Remove contaminated clothing; brush material off skin; wash affected area with mild soap and water; seek medical attention if symptoms persist.

EYE: Flush eyes with lukewarm water, lifting upper and lower eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if symptoms persist.


SECTION VII - PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE
Titanium ethoxide, liquid

STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED
Wear appropriate respiratory and protective equipment specified in section VIII-control measures. Isolate spill area, provide ventilation and extinguish sources of ignition. Vacuum up spill using a high efficiency particulate absolute (HEPA) air filter and place in a closed container for proper disposal. Take care not to raise dust. Use non-sparking tools.

WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD
Dispose of in accordance with local, state and federal regulations.

HAZARD LABEL INFORMATION:
Store in cool, dry area     Store in tightly sealed container     Wash thoroughly after handling
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING
Titanium ethoxide may react with water or moisture. Handle and store in a controlled environment and inert gas such as argon.

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN STORING
Titanium ethoxide may react with water or moisture. Handle and store in a controlled environment and inert gas such as argon.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS
None
