Special Fire Fighting      Procedures: A face shield should be worn. Wear complete

body protective butyl      rubber clothing. Wear self-contained breathing

apparatus. Personnel       in vicinity and downwind should be evacuated. Avoid

skin contact. Retain       expended liquids from fire fighting for later disposal.



Hazardous Combustion Products: May generate toxic or irritating combustion

products. Ammonia. Oxides of Nitrogen. Oxides of carbon. (CO, CO2)

                                 SECTION 5 - Reactivity Data

*****************************************************************

Stable:       x



Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid): Oxidizing Agents (ie perchlorates,

nitrates, etc.) Mineral acids (i.e. sulphuric, Phosphoric, etc.). Materials

reactive with hydroxyl compounds. Nitrates. Nitrating agents. Reactive

metals (sodium, calcium, zinc etc.). Sodium or calcium hypochlorite.



Conditions of Reactivity/Instability: Hazardous polymerization will not occur.

 Caution! n-nitrosamines, many of which are known to be powerful carcinogens,

may be formed when the product comes in contact with nitrous acid, nitrites,

or atmospheres with high concentrations of nitrous oxide. Product slowly

corrodes copper, aluminum, zinc and galvanized surfaces. Reaction with

peroxides may result in violent decomposition of peroxide possible creating an

explosion. A reaction followed by a large heat release occurs when the

product is mixed with acids. Heat generated may be sufficient to cause

boiling, creating a splashing or splattering hazard.



Hazardous Products of decomposition: Irritating and toxic fumes at elevated

temperatures. Nitric Acid. Nitrosamines. Ammonia when heated. Oxides of

nitrogen. Aldehydes. Nitrogen oxides can react with water vapours to form

corrosive nitric acid. Oxides of carbon (CO, CO2).



*****************************************************************      SECTION 6 -

Health Hazard Data

*****************************************************************

Routes Of Exposure:



Skin Contact:      may cause dryness, defatting, itching and/or rash.



Skin absorption: Readily absorbed through skin. May cause malaise,

discomfort, injury and death unless treated promptly.



Eye Contact: Burns of the eye may cause blindness. Product vapour in low

concentrations can cause lacrimation, conjunctivitis and corneal edema when

when absorbed into the tissue of the eye from the atmosphere. Corneal edema

may give rise to a perception of "blue haze" or "fog" around lights. The

effect is transient and has no know residual effect.



Inhalation, Acute: Severe respiratory tract irritant.               May severely damage

contacted tissue and produce scarring.



Inhalation, Chronic:        Refer to effects of chronic exposure.



Ingestion: Though not anticipated to occur during routine occupational use

situations, ingestion of this product can cause severe pain, burning of the

mouth and throat, vomiting and diarrhea.



Effects of Acute Exposure: Contact of undiluted product with the eyes or skin

quickly causes severe irritation and pain and may cause burns, necrosis and

permanent injury.



Effects of Chronic Exposure:          Effects from inhalation of vapours may be

delayed. Repeated and/or prolonged exposure to low concentrations of vapour

may cause: sore throat and eye irritation, which are transient. Adverse

respiratory effects (tightness of chest, cough, shortness of breath). Adverse

eye effects (such as conjunctivitis or corneal damage). Adverse skin effects

(such as defatting, rash, irritation or corrosion.) Allergic

reaction/sensitization may occur during repeated or prolonged contact with the

skin.



Target Organs:   Eye.   Respirator System.   Skin.



LD 50 of material, species and Route: > 880 mg/kg (estimate)

LC 50 of material, species and Route: refer to hazardous ingredients section

Exposure limit of material: Refer to hazardous ingredients section

Medical conditions generally aggravated by exposure: Eye disease. Asthma.

Chronic respiratory disease (e.g.bronchitis, emphysema). Skin Disorders.

Allergies.

Irritation caused by material: Corrosive

Sensitizing Capability of Material: May cause skin sensitization.

Carcinogenicity of Material: This product contains no carcinogens in

concentrations of 0.1% or greater.

Reproductive Effects: none known

Synergistic Materials: none known

                         SECTION 7 - First Aid Measures

*****************************************************************

EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES:



Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult give oxygen.

Apply artificial respiration if breathing has ceased. Contact a physician.

Prevent aspiration of vomit. Turn victim's head to the side.



Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Give large amounts of water of milk if

available and transport to medical facility.



Eyes: Hold eyelids open and flush with a steady, gentle stream of water for at

least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention.



Skin: Remove product and immediately flush with water for at least 15 minutes

remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash before reuse. Call a physician.

Except in the most minor, superficial and localized burns, cover the affected

area with a sterile dressing or clean sheeting and transport for medical care.

Do not apply greases or ointments. Control shock if present. Discard

contaminated leather articles.

*****************************************************************

Gloves/type: Impervious gloves. Polyvinyl chloride gloves. Cuffed butyl

rubber gloves. Neoprene rubber gloves. Nitrile rubber gloves.



Respiratory/type: Not required under normal conditions. A NIOSH approved

organic vapour respirator is recommended under emergency conditions.



Eye/Type: Full Face shield with goggles underneath.

Footwear/type: Rubber boots.



Clothing/Type Clothing/Type: Impervious protective clothing. Full rubber

suit. Butyl or latex protective clothes. Slicker suit.

Other/Type: Emergency shower should be in close proximity. Eye wash facility

should be in close proximity.



Engineering Controls: General ventilation; local exhaust ventilation as

necessary to control any air contaminants, to within their TLV's, in the use

of this product.



Clean Up Procedures, Leak/Spill: Stop the leak, if possible. Ventilate.

Eliminate all sources of ignition. Reduce vapour spreading with a water

spray. Dike area to prevent spreading. If recovery is not feasible, admix

with dry soil, sand or non-reactive absorbent. Transfer to containers by

suction, preparatory for later disposal. Flush area with water spray. For

large spills, recover using a vacuum truck. Open enclosed spaces to outside

atmosphere. Clean up personnel must be equipped with self-contained breathing

apparatus and butyl rubber protective clothing.



Waste disposal, method and equipment: In accordance with municipal,

provincial and federal regulations. Dispose in a permitted waste management

facility.



Handling procedures and equipment: Maintain good personal hygiene. Wash

thoroughly after handling and before eating, drinking or using tobacco

products. Do not use sodium nitrite or other nitrosating agents in

formulations containing this product. Cancer-causing nitrosamines could be

formed. Change work clothing daily before leaving the workplace. Launder or

discard contaminated clothing. Avoid smoking, drinking or eating in use.

Handle away from all sources of ignition. Avoid smoking. Avoid contact with

eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid breathing vapours or mists.



Storage needs:    Store away from oxidizing materials.        Store away from sources

of ignition. Keep container closed when not in use. Store in a cool and dry

place. Keep away from acids. Store in steel containers, preferably located

outdoors, above ground, and surrounded by dikes to contain spills or leaks.

Do not store in iron or other reactive metal containers. Store in a well

ventilated area.
