POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
Primary Route of Exposure
Eye X Skin X Inhalation X Ingestion
Effects of Overexposure
Acute:
May cause minimal irritation, experienced as temporary discomfort.
Eyes:
Brief contact is not irritating. Prolonged contact, as with clothing wetted with material, may
Skin:
cause defatting of skin or irritation, seen as local redness with possible mild discomfort.
Other than the potential skin irritation effects noted above, acute (short term) adverse effects
are not expected from brief skin contact; see other effects, below, and Section 11 for
information regarding potential long term effects.
Vapors or mist, in excess of permissible concentrations, or in unusually high concentrations
Inhalation:
generated from spraying, heating the material or as from exposure in poorly ventilated areas
or confined spaces, may cause irritation of the nose and throat, headache, nausea, and
drowsiness.
Inhalation may cause dizziness, drowsiness, euphoria, loss of coordination, disorientation,
headache, nausea, and vomiting. In poorly ventilated areas or confined spaces,
unconsciousness and asphyxiation may result. Prolonged or repeated overexposure may
result in the absorption of potentially harmful amounts of material.
If more than several mouthfuls are swallowed, abdominal discomfort, nausea, and diarrhea
Ingestion:
may occur.
Unknown
Sensitization Properties:
Chronic:
No adverse effects have been documented in humans as a result of chronic exposure. Section 11 may contain applicable
animal data.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure:
Repeated overexposure may aggravate existing kidney disease.

Flush eyes with plenty of water for several minutes. Get medical attention if eye irritation persists.
Skin:
Wash skin with plenty of soap and water for several minutes. Get medical attention if skin irritation develops or persists.
Ingestion:
If more than several mouthfuls of this material are swallowed, give two glasses of water (16 oz.). Get medical attention.
Inhalation:
If irritation, headache, nausea, or drowsiness occurs, remove to fresh air. Get medical attention if breathing becomes difficult or
respiratory irritation persists.
Other Instructions:
None

Recommended Fire Extinguishing Agents And Special Procedures:
Use water spray, dry chemical, foam, or carbon dioxide to extinguish flames. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers. Water
or foam may cause frothing.
Unusual or Explosive Hazards:
None
Special Protective Equipment for Firefighters:
No special equipment or procedures required.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES (Transportation Spills: CHEMTREC (800)424-9300)
Procedures in Case of Accidental Release, Breakage or Leakage:
Ventilate area. Avoid breathing vapor. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including appropriate respiratory protection.
Contain spill if possible. Wipe up or absorb on suitable material and shovel up. Prevent entry into sewers and waterways. Avoid
contact with skin, eyes or clothing.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions to be Taken in
Handling:
Minimum feasible handling temperatures should be maintained.
Storage:
Periods of exposure to high temperatures should be minimized. Water contamination should be avoided.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Protective Equipment (Type)
Eye/Face Protection:
Safety glasses, chemical type goggles, or face shield recommended to prevent eye contact.
Skin Protection:
Workers should wash exposed skin several times daily with soap and water. Soiled work clothing should be laundered or dry-cleaned.
Respiratory Protection:
Airborne concentrations should be kept to lowest levels possible. If vapor, mist or dust is generated and the occupational
exposure limit of the product, or any component of the product, is exceeded, use appropriate NIOSH or MSHA approved air
purifying or air supplied respirator after determining the airborne concentration of the contaminant. Air supplied respirators
should always be worn when airborne concentration of the contaminant or oxygen content is unknown.
Ventilation:
Local exhaust ventilation recommended if generating vapor, dust, or mist. If exhaust ventilation is not available or inadequate, use
MSHA or NIOSH approved respirator as appropriate.
Exposure Limit for the Total Product:
None established for product.
