Hazards Information
Primary Route(s) of Entry: Skin absorption and inhalation.
Health Hazards: This material is a known skin and pulmonary sensitizer.
Eye Contact: Vapors are irritating to the eyes. Splashes may cause severe irritation.
Skin Contact: Can cause skin sensitization.
Ingestion: Information is not available regarding ingestion.
Inhalation: Can cause pulmonary sensitization.
First Aid Measures
Eyes: Immediately flush with water for a minimum of 15 minutes. Get medical attention.
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing, flush the skin with water for a minimum of 15 minutes. Wash thoroughly with soap
and water. If irritation develops/persists; get medical attention. Wash clothing and thoroughly clean shoes before reuse.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Seek
immediate medical attention.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Give one to two cups of water or milk to drink. Get medical attention immediately.
(Never give anything by the mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person.)
Fire and Explosion Hazards
Flash Point: 225 掳F (107掳C) CC
Flammable Limits: Not Determined
Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, alcohol foam, carbon dioxide, or water.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Vapors are heavier than air and may collect in low lying areas. Container may
explode in heat of fire. Exposure to flames or arc welding can produce highly toxic gases due to thermal decomposition
or combustion of the product.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill or Leak Procedures: Ventilate area of spill or leak. Remove all sources of ignition. Wear appropriate personal
protective equipment. Isolate hazard area. Keep unnecessary personnel from entering the area. Contain and recover
the liquid where possible. Collect liquid in an appropriate container or absorb with an inert material (e.g., vermiculite, dry
sand, earth), and place in a chemical waste container. Do not flush to the sewer.

Handling and Storage
Storage: Protect against physical damage. Store in a cool dry well ventilated area, away from sunlight and incompatibles.
Handling: Use only in well ventilated areas, unless used with recommended respiratory protection. Containers of this
material may be hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (vapors, liquids); observe all warnings and
precautions listed for the product.
Exposure Controls and Personal Protection
Respiratory Protection: If the exposure limit is exceeded and engineering controls are not feasible, wear a supplied air, full
face respirator, airlined hood, or full face piece self contained breathing apparatus. Breathing air quality must meet the
requirements of OSHA respiratory protection standard (29CFR1910.134). This substance has poor warning properties.
Ventilation: Mechanical general/local exhaust to control vapor or mist below maximum exposure limits. Please refer to the
ACIGH document, Industrial Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended Practices, most recent edition for details. Use
explosion proof equipment.
Protective Clothing: Wear impervious clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls.
Eye Protection: Use chemical safety goggles and/or a full face shield where splashing is possible. Maintain an eye wash
fountain and quick drench facilities in the work area.
Other Protective Equipment: Use impervious rubber gloves and boots.
Work/Hygienic Practices: Wash with soap and water after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before next
use.
