    MSDS Isobutylene

    Uploaded by

    Wayan Parta
    This material safety data sheet provides information on isobutylene. Isobutylene is a flammable gas that is shipped as a liquefied gas under its own vapor pressure. It is colorless with an unpleasant odor. Exposure to high concentrations can cause dizziness and unconsciousness. The gas is stable but incompatible with oxidizing materials. In the event of a spill, all ignition sources should be shut off and the area ventilated while wearing appropriate protective equipment.

    The only safe way to extinguish an isobutylene
    fire is to stop the flow of gas. If the flow cannot be stopped, let
    the fire burn out while cooling the cylinder and the
    surroundings using a water spray. Personnel may have to
    wear approach type protective suits and positive pressure selfcontained breathing apparatus. Firefighters turnout gear may
    be inadequate. Small secondary fires may be brought under
    control by using carbon dioxide or a dry chemical fire
    extinguisher and stopping the flow.

    HEALTH
    HAZARD DATA

    UNUSUAL HAZARDS

    1. Cylinders exposed to fire may rupture with violent force.


    Extinguish surrounding fire and keep cylinders cool by applying
    water from a maximum possible distance with a water spray.
    2. Flammable gases may spread from a spill after the fire is
    extinguished and be subject to re-ignition.

    PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE

    OSHA TWA None established.


    ASGIH TWA None established.
    Isobutylene is a simple asphyxiant.
    Inhalation of high concentrations may cause rapid respiration,
    dizziness, fatigue, and nausea. Massive exposure may cause
    unconsciousness and death. Contact with the liquid phase or
    with the cold has escaping from a cylinder may cause frostbite.
    None known.

    PRECAUTIONS

    STORAGE
    RECOMMENDATIONS
    PERSONAL PROTECTIVE
    EQUIPMENT

    BEFORE USING THE GAS

    Cylinders should be stored and used in dry, cool, wellventilated areas away from sources of heat or ignition. Do not
    store with oxidizers
    1. Eye protection Safety glasses should be worn.
    2. Respiratory protection Approved respiratory equipment
    must be worn when airborne concentrations exceed safe
    levels.
    2. Skin protection No specific equipment is required.
    Gloves are recommended for cylinder handling.
    1. Secure the cylinder to prevent it from failing or being
    Knocked over.
    2. Leak check the lines and equipment.
    3. Have an emergency plan covering steps to be taken in the
    event of an accidental release.
