                                    SECTION 5 � HEALTH INFORMATION

Primary Routes of Exposure (# 6409): Inhalation, contact with eyes or skin

Signs & Symptoms of Exposure:

(1) Acute Overexposure � Irritation of eyes, nose & throat. Splashes in the eyes or on the skin can cause severe burns. Inhalation of

    vapor may also irritate mucous membranes & respiratory tract.

(2) Chronic Overexposure � Prolonged or repeated exposure to the skin may cause irritation of the skin.

Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure:

                           Impaired pulmonary function, pre -existing eye problems, pre -existing skin disorders.

Chemical Component Listed as Carcinogen or Potential Carcinogen:                  NTP                IARC              OSHA

Other Exposure Limits: Not known

Emergency & First Aid Procedures: In case of contact immediately flush eyes or skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes

while removing contaminated clothing & shoes. Call a Physician. If NaOH is swallowed dilute with several glasses of water or milk

and then induce vomiting. If trichloroethylene is swallowed, induce vomiting and repeat until fluid is clear. Call a physician.









                                        SECTION 6 � REACTIVITY DATA

Stability: Unstable _Stable X       Conditions to Avoid: May burn but does not ignite readily (trichloroethylene).

Incompatibility (Material to Avoid): Strong oxidizers

Hazardous Decomposition Products: Trichloroethylene may decompose to toxic fumes of phosgene when in contact with certain

metals or at high temperatures.

Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur.               Conditions to Avoid: Avoid contact with powdered metals or strong alkali.



                                SECTION 7 � SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES

Steps to be taken in case material leaks or spills: Eliminate all sources of ignition. Cover with vermiculite to absorb. Add water if

necessary to form a slurry.

Disposal Method: Dispose of wastes in accordance with Federal, State & local codes. DO NOT allow Isopropylamine to enter a sewer

because of the possibility of an explosion.





                     SECTION 8 � PERSONAL PROTECTIVE INFORMATION

Respiratory Protection: Respiratory protection is not required under normal & intended uses. NIOSH approved organic vapor

respirator used for minor spill cleanup.

Ventilation: Room ventilation is expected to be adequate except during spills or fires.

Protective Gloves: Required when contact exists

Eye Protection: Required when possibility of contact exists.

Other Protective Clothing or Equipment: An eye wash fountain & safety shower should be readily available where the potential for

contact exists.



                                    SECTION 9 � SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS

Precautions to be taken in handling & storing: Store & handle according to packaging instructions. Store in cool, well-ventilated area.

Keep away from reactive materials.

Other Precautions: Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing. Avoid breathing vapors. Wash thoroughly after handling.
