Section 2: Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview
Appearance & Odor: Clear, colorless liquid with a faint ethereal odor
WARNING
Vapor harmful. Harmful if swallowed. May cause eye irritation.
As defined by OSHA鈥檚 Hazard Communication Standard, this product is hazardous.
Potential Health Effects:
May cause moderate to severe eye irritation with tearing, pain or blurred vision.
EYE:
Immediate effects may include mild to moderate irritation, itching, redness and
SKIN:
swelling. Prolonged or repeated contact can cause defatting of the skin, with
redness and rash.
Overexposure to vapor may cause dizziness, loss of concentration, nausea,
INHALATION:
headache, and irritation of the respiratory tract. With high exposure levels, effects
can include central nervous system (CNS) depression, unconsciousness and
cardiac arrhythmia. Product vapors displace air and can cause suffocation
especially in a confined space.
Swallowing may irritate the mouth and gastro-intestinal tract. The major hazard is
INGESTION:
aspiration of the liquid into the lungs during swallowing or vomiting. This may
result in chemical pneumonia. Symptoms include coughing, gasping, shortness of
breath, bluish discoloration of the skin, and fever. Pulmonary edema, confusion,
coma and seizures may occur in more serious cases.
None identified.
CHRONIC EFFECTS:
None identified.
TARGET ORGANS:
diseases of the central nervous system or cardiovascular system
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure:
See Section 11 for toxicology and carcinogenicity information on product ingredients.

Section 4: First Aid Measures
Immediately flush with plenty of water for 15 minutes, lifting eyelids occasionally to facilitate
Eye Contact:
irrigation. Get medical attention.
Remove contaminated clothing and wash affected area with a mild soap and water. Call a
Skin Contact:
physician if irritation persists. Wash contaminated clothing prior to re-use.
Remove person to fresh air. Keep person calm. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If
Inhalation:
breathing is difficult give oxygen. Do NOT give epinephrine (adrenaline). Call a physician.
Do NOT induce vomiting. Immediately give 2 glasses of water. Do NOT give stimulants. Get
Ingestion:
medical attention immediately.
Because of possible disturbances of cardiac rhythm, catecholamine drugs such as adrenaline
Note to Physicians:
should be used with special caution and only in situations of emergency life support.
Treatment of overexposure should be directed at the control of symptoms and the clinical
conditions.
Section 5: Fire-Fighting Measures
Flammable Properties: This material is nonflammable according to OSHA definitions; however, it
could be made to burn or flash under certain conditions.
Flash Point: None Upper Explosive Limit: 18 (estimate)
Autoignition Temperature: ND Lower Explosive Limit: 6.7 (estimate)
Choose an extinguishing agent appropriate for the surrounding fire.
Suitable Extinguishing Media:
Product will decompose at high temperatures. Decomposition products include
Products of Combustion:
hydrofluoric acid, hydrogen chloride gas and carbonyl halides, such as phosgene.
Firefighters should wear self-contained, NIOSH-approved breathing apparatus for
Protection of Fire-Fighters:
protection against suffocation and possible toxic decomposition products. Proper eye
and skin protection should be provided. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed
containers cool and to knock down vapors which may result from product
decomposition.
Section 6: Accidental Release Measures
Use personal protection recommended in Section 8. Avoid inhaling vapors.
Personal Precautions:

Methods for Containment & Clean-up:
confined space or limited air circulation area, clean-up workers should wear
appropriate respiratory protection and other personal protective equipment.
Recover or absorb spilled material using an absorbent designed for chemical
spills. Place used absorbents into proper waste containers.
Section 7: Handling and Storage
Minimize vapor accumulation by providing air circulation. Vapors are heavier than air and
Handling Procedures:
will collect in low areas. Avoid breathing vapors or mist. Wear eye protection. Wash
thoroughly after handling.
