General Fire Hazards
DANGER: EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE liquid and vapor.
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Material is highly volatile and readily gives off vapors which are heavier than air and
may travel along the ground or be moved by ventilation and ignited by pilot lights, other flames, sparks heaters, smoking,
electric motors, static discharge, or other ignition sources at locations distant from material handling point. Keep container
closed. Use with adequate ventilation.
NFPA Ratings: Health= 2, Fire= 3, Reactivity= 0
Hazardous Combustion Products
Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, halogenated hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, and various hydrocarbons.
Extinguishing Media
Carbon dioxide (CO2), dry chemical.
Fire Fighting Equipment/Instructions
Use NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus operating in the pressure demand mode and full fire fighting
protective clothing. Avoid inhalation of vapors.
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
Containment Procedures
Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate and ventilate spill area. Dam spill area with sand, earth, or other suitable absorbent.
Prevent entry of material into sewers, other water sources, or land areas. Wear full protective clothing and respiratory
protection during clean-up as required to maintain exposures below the applicable exposure limit. Shovel absorbed material
into containers in well-ventilated area.
Clean-Up Procedures
Place in closable container for disposal.
Special Procedures
Avoid skin contact and inhalation of vapors during disposal of spills.
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
Handling Procedures
Use protective equipment as described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet when handling uncontained material. Handle in
accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practices.
Storage Procedures
Warehouse storage should be in accordance with package directions, if any. Product should be kept in a cool and dry area in
original packaging. Do not freeze.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Exposure Guidelines
A: General Product Information
Protective equipment should be provided as necessary to prevent inhalation of vapors, prolonged skin contact, and to keep
exposure levels below the applicable exposure limits.

IARC: Group 3 - Not Classifiable (IARC Monograph 71 [1999], Monograph 47 [1989])
Neurotoxicity
Toluene is a central nervous system depressant which produces lightheadedness, nausea, headache, and ataxia at low doses
and confusion behavioral and intelligence effects, coma, and death at high doses.
Hexane can damage the peripheral nervous system and produce paralysis, numbness, or tingling in the extremities.
Mutagenicity
Some evidence in animals exposed to toluene. Sister chromatid exchanges and chromosome aberrations were elevated in
lymphocytes from laboratory workers exposed to toluene and other solvents.
Teratogenicity
Toluene may be harmful to the human fetus based on positive test results with laboratory animals. Case studies show that
prolonged intentional abuse of toluene during pregnancy can cause birth defects in humans.
N-hexane caused degeneration of the testes in experimental rats.
