4. REACTIVITY DATAi
STABILITY! (CONDITIONS TO AVOID) Avoid exposure to air, oxygen, sunlight, moisture, and all sources of heat or ignition. Autoigm ces in air at 472C (082F).
INCOMPATIBILITY! (SPECIFIC MATERIALS TO AVOID) material, and aluminum or aluminum alloys.
Oxidizing
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS* monoxide.
Hydrogen chloride, carbon
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: May occur. Avoid exposures to oxygen (air), heat, sunlight, moisture, and free radical initiators or other c*talytic impurities.
ENVIRONMENTAL AND DISPOSAL INFORMATION:
ACTION TO TAKE FOR SPILLS/LEAKS* Remove all sources of ignition; supply ample ventilation, allow only properly protected personnel into the area: do not allow vinyl chloride to enter the sewer system because of explosive hazard.
DISPOSAL METHOD* Incinerate in equipment with a hydrochloric acid scrubber according to local, state, and federal regulations. Contact The Dow Chemical Company for additional help.
HEALTH HAZARD DATA:
EYE: If liquid contacts eye, evaporation may cause frostbite-type injury due to rapid cooling.
SKIN CONTACT: If liquid contacts si in, evaporation may cause frost--bite type injury due to rapid cooling.

INHALATION* A single brie* (minutes) inhalation exposure to easily attainable concentrations may cause serious adverse effects* even death. Signs and symptoms of excessive exposure at concentrations of 0,000 to 10,000 ppm may be anesthetic or narcotic ejects. Signs and symptoms of excessive exposure may be central nervous system effects.
SYSTEMIC Si OTHER EFFECTS: Excessive exposure may cause lung,
liver and kidney effects. Excessive exposure has been shown to cause cancer in humans and in laboratory animals. Repeated excessive exposure may cause Raynaud's Phenomenon* pseudDscleroderma and acroosteolysis in humans. Has been shown to be a mutagen in bacteria. Has been shown to produce reversible chromosomal abnormalities in humans. Vinyl chloride is listed as a carcinogen by The National Toxicology Program* The Internal!onal Agency for Research, and QSHA.
FIRST AID:
EYES* Irrigate immediately with water for at least 5 minutes.
SKIN: No adverse effects anticipated by this route of exposure except for frostbite.
INGESTION: No adverse -effects anticipated by this route of exposure due to physical properties.
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. If breathing is difficult* give oxygen. Call a physician.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: No specific antidote. Supportive care. Treatment based on judgment of the physician in response to
"i reactions of the patient.
