    KIDNEY DAMAGE. MAY CAUSE DEATH FROM CIRCULATORY FAILURE. CHRONIC:
    AS THOSE OF ACUTE.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:STUDIES SHOW THAT REPEATED EXPOSURE TO
    LEVELS UP TO 14.3 PPM INDUCED NASAL CAVITY SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMA
    IN RATS.
Effects of Overexposure:INHALATION: MAY CAUSE EYE, NOSE & THROAT
    IRRITATION. MAY CAUSE DIFFICULTY IN BREATHING, BURNING OF THE NOSE
    & THROAT; OR EVEN PULMONARY EDEMA AND PNEUMONITIS. SKIN & EYES:

    DEATH.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH A HISTORY OF SKIN OR
    EYE DISORDERS MAY BE AT INCREASED RISK FROM EXPOSURE. PERSONS WITH
    LIVER, KIDNEY AND RESPIRATORY DISORDERS MAY ALSO BE AT INCREASED
    RISK.

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

First Aid:INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR IMMEDIATELY. IF BREATHING HAS
    STOPPED, GIVE CPR. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. SKIN: REMOVE
    CONTAMINATED CLOTHING & SHOES. WASH AFFECTED AREA WITH SOAP &
    WATER. GET	MEDICAL ATTENTION. EYE: WASH EYES IMMEDIATELY WITH
    LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES. GET MEDICAL
    ATTENTION. INGESTION: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL

Other Precautions:MAY BE IGNITED BY HEAT, SPARKS OR FLAMES. CONTAINER
    MAY EXPLODE IN HEAT OF FIRE. VAPOR EXPLOSION HAZARD INDOORS,
    OUTDOORS OR IN SEWERS. RUN-OFF TO SEWER MAY CREATE FIRE OR
    EXPLOSION HAZARD.

=============  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  =============

Respiratory Protection:SELECT NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED RESPIRATOR BASED ON
    CONTAMINATION LEVELS FOUND IN THE WORK PLACE USING NIOSH POCKET
    GUIDE TO CHEMICAL HAZARDS. SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS IS
    RECOMMENDED FOR MOST CAS ES.
Ventilation:PROVIDE LOCAL EXHAUST OR PROCESS ENCLOSURE VENTILATION TO
    MEET THE PUBLISHED EXPOSURE LIMITS. USE EXPLOSION-PROOF EQUIP.
Protective Gloves:BUTYL OR NITRILE RUBBER.
