3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Emergency Overview: Caution: Combustible Harmful if inhaled. Harmful or fatal if liquid is aspirated into lungs. Gross inhalation overexposure
may cuase: Central nervous system depression with dizziness, confusion, incoordination, drowsiness or unconsciousness
or death. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Avoid breathing vapors. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing.
May cause delayed lung injury.
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Contact: In case of contact, or suspected contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and get
medical attention immediately after flushing.
Ingestion: If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Call a physician immediately. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person.
Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing give artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth. If breathing is difficult
give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and launder before reuse. Get medical attention if irritation
persists.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Precautions: Wear appropriate protective clothing and equipment to prevent skin and eye contact.
Spill Procedures: Wear protective equipment specified.
Increase area ventilation. Remove sources of ignition. Leaking containers should be removed to an isolated, well-
ventilated area and transferred to other suitable containers. Wipe, scrape or soak up in an inert material and put in a
container for disposal.
Environmental Precautions: Do not allow to enter sanitary drains, sewer or surface and subsurface waters.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Page 1 of 3
Storage: with adequate ventilation. Avoid extreme temperatures. Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using
the toilet.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering Controls: Exhaust ventilation. Showers. Eyewash stations.
Eyes: Wear safety glasses or goggles to protect against exposure. Chemical goggles; also wear a face shield if
splashing hazard exists.
Skin Protection: Avoid skin contact. Wear protective clothing and gloves. Neoprene coated apron or clothing. Nitrile coated
apron or clothing.
Respiratory Protection: Use an approved NIOSH organic vapor respirator below the TLV. If TLV is exceeded or overexposure is likely,
use positive pressure or self contained breathing apparatus.
