For contact with liquid or cold gas gu|iok 1 y remove victim from
source of contamination and flush l<j$c%#sfcrm (100-105) not hot, flowing
water until the chemical is removed. DO %OT attempt to re-warm the
affected area on site. DO NOT rub area or apply dry heat. Loosely
cover with a dry sterile pressing. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION QUICKLY.

FLAMMABLE LIMITS IN AIR, BY % VOLUME
Upper: 33.0 Lower: 3.6
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: 206
Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, foam, water fog or spray. Water may be ineffective, but should be used to keep fire-exposed containers cool. 207 If a leak or spill has not ignited, use water spray to disperse the vapors and to protect persons attempting to stop leak.
FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES:
i3c>e>
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD:
303
For large cargo fires, evacuate all personnel to at least 1/2 mile in
all directions due to danger of exploding vessels. Down wind areas
may require additional evacuation due to toxic products of
combustion. Do not attempt to extinguish largli^,.,hires. Evacuate the
area and notify the fire department. If possible t.o do without danger
to personnel, containers exposed to intense bifeat from fires should be
cooled with water to prevent vapor pressure buildup which could
result in container rupture. Container areas exposed to direct flame
contact should be cooled with large c0f^.ntities of water as needed to
prevent weakening of container st ructuro.

11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION (Continued)
Vinyl chloride has been demonstrated to be mutagenic in cultured cell tests, insects, and laboratory animals. It is also listed as a human carcinogen by OSHA, IARC (Group 1) and NTP. Long term exposure to vinyl chloride has caused liver and other cancers in animals and humans. At high concentrations vinyl chloride can cause central nervous depression, affect heart rhythms, and cause liver and kidney damage. Prolonged and repeated exposure may result in changes in the blood system and loss of bone from finger tips.
