======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:SKIN: REMOVE CONTAMD CLTHG W/OUT DELAY. WEAR IMPERVIOUS
GLOVES. CLEANSE SKIN THORO W/SOAP & WATER. DO NOT OMIT CLEANING
HAIR/UNDER FINGERNAILS IF CONTAMD. DO NOT REUSE CLTHG W/OUT
LAUNDERING. DO NOT R EUSE CONTAMD LEATHERWEAR. EYE:IMMED IRRIGATE
W/PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINS. OBTAIN MED ATTN W/OUT
DELAY. INHAL: REMOVE FROM EXPOS. ADMIN O*2 IF THERE IS DFCLTY IN
BRTHG. GIVE ARTF RESP(ING 7)
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Flash Point Method:TCC
Flash Point:>212F,>100C
Extinguishing Media:USE WATER SPRAY, CARBON DIOXIDE/DRY CHEMICAL TO
EXTING FIRES.
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED SCBA & FULL
PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. USE WATER TO KEEP CONTAINERS COOL.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
Spill Release Procedures:WHERE EXPOS LEVEL IS NOT KNOWN, WEAR
NIOSH/MSHA APPRVD POSITIVE PRESS SELF-CONTAINED RESP. WHERE EXPOS
LEVEL IS KNOWN, WEAR NIOSH/MSHA APPRVD RESP SUITABLE FOR LEVEL OF
EXPOS. IN ADDN TO PROT CLTHG/EQ UIP WEAR IMPERVIOUS BOOTS. COVER
SPILLS(ING 9)
Neutralizing Agent:NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:DO NOT GET INTO EYES, ON SKIN, ON
CLTHG. AVOID BRTHG VAP. KEEP CNTNR CLOSED. USE WITH ADEQUATE VENT.
Other Precautions:CUTTING, GRINDING/SANDING OF PARTS FABRICATED AFTER
CURING OF MATL MAY CREATE RESP DUST PRATICLES. RESP PROT APPROP FOR
DUST MAY BE REQD. SEE "GUIDE TO INDUSTRIAL RESPIRATORY
PROTECTION"(NIOSH).
Respiratory Protection:WHERE EXPOS ARE BELOW PEL, NO RESP PROT IS REQD.
WHERE EXPOS EXCEED PEL, USE NIOSH/MSHA APPRVD FULL PROT SUIT W/AIR
SUPPLY APPROP FOR MATL & LEVEL OF EXPOSURE. A FULL FACEPIECE RESP
ALSO PROVIDES EYE & FACE PROTECTION.
Ventilation:UTILIZE CLSD SYSTEM PROCESS WHERE FEASIBLE. WHERE MATL IS
NOT USED IN CLSD SYSTEM, GOOD ENCLOSURE & LOC EXHST (ING 10)
Protective Gloves:IMPERVIOUS GLOVES .
Eye Protection:ANSI APPRVD CHEM WORKERS GOGGLES.
Other Protective Equipment:PVNT CONTAM OF SKIN/CLTHG WHEN REMOVING PROT
EQUIP. BARRIER CREAM MAY BE USED IN CONJUNCTION W/GLOVES TO
PROVIDE(ING 11)
Work Hygienic Practices:FOOD, BEVERAGES & TOBACCO PRODS SHOULD NOT BE
CARRIED, STORED/CONSUMED WHERE MATL IS IN USE. BEFORE EATING, (ING
