Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS:  EYE: MAY
    CAUSE EYE IRRITATION. SKIN: MAY CAUSE SKIN IRRITATION. MAY CAUSE A
    DEEP STAINING OF THE SKIN.	 INGESTION: INGESTION OF LARGE AMOUNTS
    MAY CAUSE GASTROINTESTINAL IRR ITATION. LOW HAZARD	FOR USUAL
    INDUSTRIAL HANDLING. INHALATION: LOW HAZARD FOR USUAL INDUSTRIAL
    HANDLING. EXCESSIVE INHALATION MAY CAUSE MINOR RESPIRATORY
    IRRITATION.   CHRONIC: NO INFORMATION FOUND.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NONE
Effects of Overexposure:EYE: MAY CAUSE EYE IRRITATION. SKIN: MAY CAUSE
    SKIN IRRITATION. MAY CAUSE A DEEP STAINING OF THE SKIN.  
    INGESTION: INGESTION OF LARGE AMOUNTS MAY CAUSE GASTROINTESTINAL
    IRRITATION. INHALATION: EXCESS IVE INHALATION MAY CAUSE MINOR
    RESPIRATORY IRRITATION.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:NOT PROVIDED

=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

Eyes: FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES,
    OCCASIONALLY LIFTING THE  UPPER AND LOWER EYELIDS. IF IRRITATION
    DEVELOPS, GET MEDICAL AID. SKIN: FLUSH WITH SOAP AND WATER FOR AT
    LEAST 15 MI NUTES WHILE REMOVING CONTAMINATED CLOTHING. GET MEDICAL
    AID IF IRRITATION DEVELOPS/PERSISTS. INGESTION: DO NOT INDUCE
    VOMITING. IF VICTIM IS CONSCIOUS AND ALERT, GIVE 2-4 CUPFULS OF
    MILK/WATER. WASH M OUTH OUT. GET MEDICAL AID IF IRRITATION/
    SYMPTOMS OCCUR. INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR IMMEDIATELY. IF NOT
    BREATHING, GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT,
    GIVE OXYGEN. GET MEDICAL  AID IF COUGH OR OTHER SYMPTOMS APPEAR.

=====================  Fire Fighting Measures  =====================

Lower Limits:N/AV
Upper Limits:A/AV
Extinguishing Media:SUBSTANCE IS NONCOMBUSTIBLE; USE AGENT MOST
