What is this information?
CAS Number - Chemical Abstract Service registry number. Unique identification number assigned to this chemical by the American Chemical Society.
UN/NA Number - The United Nations-North America number (also called UN number or DOT number). Four-digit number identifying an individual chemical or group of chemicals with similar characteristics. Required on shipping papers; often shown on placards or labels. This numbering system was developed by the U.S. Department of Transportation, and then became the UN standard system for classifying hazardous materials.
STCC Number - Standard Transportation Commodity Code. Sounds like "Stick number." Seven-digit chemical identification code used by the Association of American Railroads. A STCC number beginning with "49" indicates a hazardous material.
CHRIS Code - Three-letter code used by the U.S. Coast Guard to identify individual chemicals included in its
CHRIS (Chemical Hazards Response Information System) manual.
NFPA 704 - Diamond-shaped label containing codes indicating the level of the chemical's toxic, flammability, and reactivity hazard, along with special hazards such as water- and air-reactivity. See
a guide to the "NFPA diamond."
DOT Hazard Label - Required DOT hazard warning label for the chemical (e.g., "Flammable Liquid," "Corrosive"). This label must be displayed on shipped packages, railroad tank cars, and tank trucks according to specifications described in 49 CFR 172.
General Description - Brief description of the general appearance, behavior, and hazardousness of the chemical.

What is this information?
Reactivity Alerts - Special alerts for chemicals that are especially reactive. See
a table of reactivity alerts and their definitions.
Air & Water Reactions - Special alerts for chemicals that react with air and/or water or moisture.
Fire Hazard - Description of the chemical's flammability, byproducts that may evolve if the chemical is burned, and risk of explosion.
Health Hazard - Description of the health hazards of the chemical, such as toxicity, flammability, and corrosivity.
Reactivity Profile - Description of the potential reactivity between the chemical and other chemicals, as well as its reactivity with air and water, and any other intrinsic reactive hazards (e.g., polymerizability, peroxidizability).
Reactive Groups - The reactive group, or groups, to which the chemical was assigned, based on its known chemistry. Reactive groups are categories of chemicals that react in similar ways because they are similar in their chemical structure.

List of data sources.
Fire Fighting
Fires involving this material can be controlled with a dry chemical, carbon dioxide or Halon extinguisher. (NTP, 1992)
Non-Fire Response
SMALL SPILLS AND LEAKAGE: If you spill this chemical, FIRST REMOVE ALL SOURCES OF IGNITION. Then, use absorbent paper to pick up all liquid spill material. Your contaminated clothing and absorbent paper should be sealed in a vapor-tight plastic bag for eventual disposal. Solvent wash all contaminated surfaces with ethanol followed by washing with a soap and water solution. Do not reenter the contaminated area until the Safety Officer (or other responsible person) has verified that the area has been properly cleaned.
STORAGE PRECAUTIONS: You should store this chemical under refrigerated temperatures, and keep it away from oxidizing materials. STORE AWAY FROM SOURCES OF IGNITION. (NTP, 1992)
Protective Clothing
RECOMMENDED RESPIRATOR: Where the neat test chemical is weighed and diluted, wear a NIOSH-approved half face respirator equipped with an organic vapor/acid gas cartridge (specific for organic vapors, HCl, acid gas and SO2) with a dust/mist filter. (NTP, 1992)
First Aid
EYES: First check the victim for contact lenses and remove if present. Flush victim's eyes with water or normal saline solution for 20 to 30 minutes while simultaneously calling a hospital or poison control center. Do not put any ointments, oils, or medication in the victim's eyes without specific instructions from a physician. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim after flushing eyes to a hospital even if no symptoms (such as redness or irritation) develop.
SKIN: IMMEDIATELY flood affected skin with water while removing and isolating all contaminated clothing. Gently wash all affected skin areas thoroughly with soap and water. If symptoms such as redness or irritation develop, IMMEDIATELY call a physician and be prepared to transport the victim to a hospital for treatment.
INHALATION: IMMEDIATELY leave the contaminated area; take deep breaths of fresh air. If symptoms (such as wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, or burning in the mouth, throat, or chest) develop, call a physician and be prepared to transport the victim to a hospital. Provide proper respiratory protection to rescuers entering an unknown atmosphere. Whenever possible, Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) should be used; if not available, use a level of protection greater than or equal to that advised under Protective Clothing.
INGESTION: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. If the victim is conscious and not convulsing, give 1 or 2 glasses of water to dilute the chemical and IMMEDIATELY call a hospital or poison control center. Be prepared to transport the victim to a hospital if advised by a physician. If the victim is convulsing or unconscious, do not give anything by mouth, ensure that the victim's airway is open and lay the victim on his/her side with the head lower than the body. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. IMMEDIATELY transport the victim to a hospital. (NTP, 1992)
