**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Limited evidence of a carcinogenic effect. May cause fire.Cancer
suspect agent.The toxicological properties of this material have not
been fully investigated.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause eye irritation. May cause lacrimation (tearing), blurred
vision, and photophobia. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and
corneal damage.
Skin:
May cause skin irritation. May cause skin irritation and possible
burns.
Ingestion:
May cause irritation of the digestive tract. The toxicological
properties of this substance have not been fully investigated. May
cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and increased salivation.
Inhalation:
May cause respiratory tract irritation. The toxicological properties
of this substance have not been fully investigated. Olfactory fatigue
may occur. Can produce delayed pulmonary edema.
Chronic:
No information found.
**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****
Eyes:
Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Immediately flush
eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally
lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin:
Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing
before reuse.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical
aid. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and
drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not
breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Get medical aid.
Notes to Physician:
**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES ****
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full
protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases
may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Water
Reactive. Material will react with water and may release a flammable
and/or toxic gas. Dust can be an explosion hazard when exposed to
heat or flame. Flammable solid. May burn rapidly with flare burning
effect. May re-ignite after fire is extinguished.
Extinguishing Media:
Do NOT use water directly on fire. In case of fire, use water, dry
chemical, chemical foam, or alcohol-resistant foam. Use agent most
appropriate to extinguish fire. For large fires, use water spray,
fog or regular foam. Contact professional fire-fighters immediately.
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, sand, earth, water
spray or regular foam. Cool containers with flooding quantities of
water until well after fire is out. Use water spray, dry chemical,
carbon dioxide, or appropriate foam.
**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Clean up spills immediately, observing precautions in the Protective
Equipment section. Sweep up, then place into a suitable container for
disposal. Sweep up or absorb material, then place into a suitable
clean, dry, closed container for disposal. Scoop up with a
nonsparking tool, then place into a suitable container for disposal.
Avoid generating dusty conditions. Remove all sources of ignition.
Provide ventilation.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Use with adequate ventilation. Minimize dust
generation and accumulation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and
clothing. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or
vapor), and can be dangerous. Keep container tightly closed. Keep
away from heat, sparks and flame. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Do
not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose
empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of
ignition. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances. Keep away
from water. Flammables-area.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate
ventilation to keep airborne concentrations low. Use adequate
general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations
below the permissible exposure limits. Use process enclosure, local
exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control
airborne levels. Use adequate general or local explosion-proof
ventilation to keep airborne levels to acceptable levels.

Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes:
Wear safety glasses and chemical goggles if splashing
is possible. Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or
chemical safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and
face protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or
European Standard EN166.
Skin:
Wear appropriate protective gloves and clothing to
prevent skin exposure. Wear appropriate protective
gloves to prevent skin exposure.
Clothing:
Wear appropriate protective clothing to minimize
contact with skin. Wear appropriate protective
clothing to prevent skin exposure.
Respirators:
A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29
CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements or European
Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace
conditions warrant respirator use. Wear a NIOSH/MSHA
or European Standard EN 149 approved full-facepiece
airline respirator in the positive pressure mode with
emergency escape provisions.
