Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:TARGET ORGANS: EYE, SKIN, CENTAL
NERVOUS SYSTEM, RESPIRATORY AND GASTROINTESTINAL TRACTS. ACUTE -
LIQUID IS SEVERELY IRRITATING TO THE EYES. VAPORS MAY ALSO BE
IRRITATING. LIQUID IS IRRITATING TO THE SKIN. PROLONGED OR
REPEATED SKIN CONTACTWITH LIQUID CAN RESULT IN DEFATTING AND DRYING
OF THE SKIN WHICH MAY RESULT IN SKIN IRRITATION AND DERMATITIS.
INHALATION OF VAPORS MAY CAUSE IRRITATION TO THE NOSE, THROAT AND
RESPIRATORY TRACT. HIGH VAPOR CONCENTRATIONS MAY CAUSE
CENTRALNERVOUS SYSTEM (CNS) DEPRESSION. LIQUID IS MODERATELY TOXIC
AND MAY BE HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED. MAY PRODUCE CNS DEPRESSION.
CHRONIC- MAY CAUSE DERMATITIS.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NO INGREDIENT OF A CONCENTRATION OF 0.1%
OR GREATER IS LISTED AS A CARCINOGEN OR SUSPECTED CARCINOGEN.
Effects of Overexposure:SEVERE IRRITATION, NAUSEA, VOMITING, TEARING,
BLURRED VISION, DRY SKIN, DERMATITIS, DIZZINESS, HEADACHE,
UNCONSCIOUSNESS, DEATH
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PREEXISTING DISEASES OF THE EYES,
SKIN, RESPIRATORY TRACT, CNS MAY BE AGGRAVATED BY OVEREXPOSURE TO
THIS PRODUCT.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:INHALED: MOVE TO FRESH AIR AND PROVIDE OXYGEN IF BREATHING IS
DIFFICULT. SEEK MEDICAL HELP. EYES: FLUSH WITH WATER FOR 15
MINUTES. HOLD EYELIDS OPEN. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. SKIN: FLUSH WITH
WATER WHIL E REMOVING CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND SHOES. IF
IRRITATION OCCURS, GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. INGESTION: DO NOT GIVE
LIQUID IF VICTIM IS UNCONSCIOUS OR VERY DROWSY. OTHERWISE, GIVE NO
MORE THAN 2 GLASSES O F WATER AND INDUCE VOMITING BY GIVING 30CC
(2 TABLESPOON) SYRUP OF IPECAC OR TOUCH BACK OF VICTIM'S THROAT.
SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION. KEEP VICTIM'S HEAD BELOW HIPS WHILE
VOMITING.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Flash Point Method:TCC
Flash Point:=36.7C, 98.F
Lower Limits:1.4%
Upper Limits:11.2%
Extinguishing Media:USE WATER FOG, ALCOHOL FOAM,DRY CHEMICAL OR C02
Fire Fighting Procedures:WARNING-FLAMMABLE. CLEAR FIRE AREA OF
UNPROTECTED PERSONNEL. DO NOT ENTER CONFINED FIRE SPACE WITHOUT
FULL BUNKER GEAR (HELMET WITH FACE SHIELD. BUNKER COATS, GLOVES
AND RUBBER BOOTS),INCLUDING A PO SITIVE PRESSURE NIOSH APPROVED
SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS. COOL FIRE EXPOSED CONTAINERS
WITH WATER.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:CONTAINERS EXPOSED TO INTENSE HEAT 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 SH OULD BE COOLED WITH LARGE QUANTITES OF
WATER AS NEEDED TO PREVENT WEAKENING OF CONTAINER STRUCTURE.
================== Accidental Release Measures ==================
Spill Release Procedures:WEAR PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. ELIMINATE SOURCES
OF IGNITION. VENTILATE AREA. DO NOT WALK THROUGH SPILL; STOP SPILL
IF POSSIBLE. USE A VAPOR SUPPRESSING FOAM TO REDUCE VAPORS. CONTAIN
AND PICK UP WITH NON -FLAMMABLE ABSORBENT SUCH AS SAND,
VERMICULITE. GROUND ALL HANDLING EQUIPMENTS. PREVENT LIQUID FROM
ENTERING SEWERS, WATERWAYS, CONFINED SPACES.
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:STORE IN A COOL, DRY, VENTILATED AREA
AWAY FROM IGNITION SOURCES, AND INCOMPATIBLES. DO NOT STORE OR
HANDLE IN ALUMINUM EQUIPMENT AT TEMPERATURES OVER 120 DEG F.
Other Precautions:FLAMMABLE. EMPTY CONTAINERS RETAIN PRODUCT RESIDUES
(VAPORS, LIQUID, AND/OR SOLID) AND CAN BE DANGEROUS. DO NOT
PRESSURIZE, CUT, WELD, BRAZE, SOLDER OR DRILL. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF
CHILDREN. AVOID BREA THING VAPORS. DO NOT GET IN EYE, ON SKINOR ON
CLOTHING. AVOID DIRECT SUN.
============= Exposure Controls/Personal Protection =============

Eye Protection:SAFETY GLASSES/CHEMICAL SPLASH GOGGLES
Other Protective Equipment:EYE BATH, WASHING FACILITY, LAB COAT OR
UNIFORM.
Work Hygienic Practices:OBSERVE GOOD INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE PRACTICES AND
RECOMMENDED PROCEDURES. WASH AFTER HANDLING AND BEFORE EATING,
DRINKING OR SMOKING.
