4. FIRST AID MEASURES
EYE CONTACT
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 20 minutes retracting
eyelids often. Get immediate medical attention.
SKIN CONTACT
Wash with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and launder. Get
medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
INHALATION
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, perform rescue breathing and, if
available, have a trained person administer oxygen.

4. FIRST AID MEASURES (Cont.)
Get medical attention immediately.
INGESTION
Emergency personnel should be contacted immediately and be provided with
this MSDS. For ingestion of small quantities of chemicals, the risk
associated with inducing vomiting usually exceeds the poisoning risk.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FLAMMABILITY DATA
FLASH POINT: 237 F, 113 C
EXPLOSIVE/FLAMMABILITY LIMITS ESTIMATED FROM INGREDIENTS:
LOWER LIMIT: 0.8 %
UPPER LIMIT: 12.0 %
AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE ESTIMATED FROM INGREDIENTS:
338 F, 201 C
GENERAL HAZARDS
Vapors may be ignited by heat, sparks, flames or other sources of ignition
giving rise to a Class B fire. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel to a
source of ignition and flash back. Container may explode in heat of fire.
Empty container may still contain residual material that can ignite and/or
result in an explosion. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill,
grind, or expose empty container to heat, flame, sparks, static electricity,
or other sources of ignition.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Small Fires: Dry chemical, CO2, water spray or alcohol-resistant foam. Large
Fires: Water spray, fog or alcohol-resistant foam. Move containers from fire
area if it can be done without risk. Apply cooling water to containers
that are exposed to flames until well after fire is out.
FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
Do not enter fire area without proper protection including self-contained
breathing apparatus and full protective equipment. Fight fire from a safe
distance and a protected location. Heat may build pressure and rupture closed
containers, spreading fire and increasing risk of burns or injuries. Water may
be ineffective in firefighting due to low flash point and limited miscibility
with water. Flammable/combustible components of this material may be lighter
than water and burn while floating on the surface. Use water spray/fog for
cooling. Even if material is water soluble, it may not be practical to
extinguish fire by water dilution. Notify authorities if liquid enters sewers
or other public waters.
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS
carbon dioxide; carbon monoxide; nitrogen containing gases; hydrogen
cyanide; other toxic gases

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
SPILL CLEAN-UP PROCEDURES
Shut off ignition sources; smoking, flames or other sources of ignition
must not be permitted in the area. Small Spills: Take up with sand or other
noncombustible absorbent material and put into properly labeled containers for
disposal. Large Spills: Dike ahead of liquid spill area to minimize migration
and vapor generation. Ventilate the area. Get professional help from outside
contractors, the fire department or your trained spill brigade.
HEALTH CONSIDERATIONS AND PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Information on the selection and use of personal protective equipment is found
in Section 8 of this MSDS. Personal protective equipment needs must be
evaluated based on information provided on this sheet and the special
circumstances created by the spill including; material spilled, quantity, the
area in which it occurred and the expertise of employees in the area
responding to the spill. Never exceed any occupational exposure limits and
consider that the evaporation of volatile solvents can lead to the
displacement of air creating an environment that can cause asphxyiation.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING
Avoid contact with material, avoid breathing vapors, use only in a well
ventilated area, use bonding and grounding when transferring this material.
STORAGE
Store in a cool dry ventilated location, away from oxidizers, heat, flame or
other incompatible conditions. Keep container(s) closed if possible.
____________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS AND PERSONAL PROTECTION
ENGINEERING CONTROLS
Local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls are normally required
when handling or using this product to keep exposure to airborne contaminants
below the TLV, PEL, or other recommended exposure limit and/or maintain
operator comfort.
Facilities storing or using this material should be equipped with an eyewash
and safety shower.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
If air monitoring indicates airborne concentrations at or above the limits,
or symptoms of inhalation over-exposure occur, a respiratory protection
program may be required. Engineering controls to reduce the exposure below
acceptable limits are usually preferable to a respirator program.
EYE PROTECTION
Chemically resistant safety glasses with side shields must be worn when
handling this product. Further eye protection such as chemical splash goggles
and/or face shield must be worn when the possibility exists for eye contact
due to splashing or spraying liquid or airborne particles. Contact lenses
should not be worn. An eye wash station should be available.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS AND PERSONAL PROTECTION (Cont.)
SKIN PROTECTION
Depending upon conditions of use, wear protective gloves and other protective
equipment. Inspect gloves for chemical break-through and replace as needed.
Clean equipment thoroughly after each use.
Appropriate gloves to be used for MARKEM products that are mixtures have not
been determined. Glove type(s) for ingredients present at 10% or more
(if known) are:
