SECTION V - HEALTH, HAZARD INFORMATION (cont.)
Carcinogenic References: IARC Category- None, NTP Carcinogen - Known: No
Aggravated by Exposure: No Information Found.
SECTION VI - EMERGENCY & FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Inhalation: Not Expected to Require First Aid Measures.
Ingestion: Give Large Quantities of Water. Never Give Anything by Mouth to an Unconscious Person. Get
Medical Attention Immediately.
Skin: In Case of Contact, Immediately Flush Skin with Plenty of Water for at Least 15 Minutes while
Removing Contaminated Clothing and Shoes. Wash Clothing and Shoes Before Reuse.
Eyes: Immediately Flush Eyes with Plenty of Water for at Least 15 Minutes, Lifting Lower and Upper
Eyelids Occasionally. Get Medical Attention Immediately.
SECTION VII - INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE MEASURES
Ventilation System: A System of Local and/or General Exhaust is Recommended to Keep Employee Exposures
Below the Airborne Exposure Limits. Local Exhaust Ventilation is Generally Preferred Because
it can Control the Emissions of the Contaminant at its Source, Preventing Dispersion of it into
the General Work Area.
Airborne Exposure Limits: No Information Found.
Personal Respirators: No Special Respiratory Protection should be Required.
(NIOSH APPROVED)
Skin Protection: Wear PVC Protective Gloves and Clean Body-Covering Clothing.
Eye Protection: Use Chemical Safety Goggles. Use Full-Face Shield where Splashing is Possible. Maintain
Eye Wash Fountain and Quick-Drench Facilities in Work Area.
SECTION VIII - INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE MEASURES
Accidental Release: Disposal of Collected Product, Residues, and Cleanup Materials may be Governmentally
Regulated. Observe all Applicable Local, State, and Federal Waste Management Regulations.
Mop Up, or Wipe Up, or Soak Up with Absorbent and Contain for Salvage or Disposal. Clean
any Remaining Slippery Surfaces by Appropriate Techniques, Such as: Several Moppings or
Disposal: Swabbings with Appropriate Solvents; Wahing with Mild Caustic Detergents or Solutions; or
High Pressure Steam for Large Areas. Observe any Safety Precautions Applicable to the
Cleaning Material being Used. For Large Spills, Provide Diking or Other Appropriate
Containment to Keep Material from Spreading. Observe all Personal Protection Equipment
Recommendations Described in Section 7. Local, State, and Federal Reporting Requirements
may Apply to Spills or Releases of this Material into the Enviroment.
Environmental Fate: No Information Found.
SECTION IX - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
Handling and Storage: Store in a Cool, Dry, Ventilated Storage Area. Protect from Physical Damage. Keep Out of
Direct Sunlight and Away from Heat, Water, and Incompatible Materials. Do Not use Aluminum
for Storage of Aqueous Solutions. Isolate from Oxidizer Materials. Do Not Store Above 110 0F
(43 0C). Do Not Wash out Container and Use it for Other Purposes. Containers of this Material
May be Hazardous when Empty Since they Retain Product Residues (Vapors, Liquid).
