III. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION



Eye: Can cause severe eye irritation. Symptoms include stinging, tearing, redness, and

swelling of eyes. Can injure eye tissue.

Skin: May cause mild skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated contact may dry the skin.

Symptoms may include redness, burning, drying and cracking of skin, and skin burns. Pa

ssage of this material into the body through the skin is possible, and skin contact may be

harmful.

Swallowing: Swallowing small amounts of this material during normal handling is not likely

to cause harmful effects. Swallowing large amounts may be harmful. This material can get into

the lungs during swallowing or vomiting. This results in lung inflammation and other lung

injury.

Inhalation: Breathing of vapor or mist is possible. Breathing this material may be harmful.

Symptoms usually occur at air concentrations higher than the recommended exposure limits

(see Section 8).

Symptoms of Exposure: Signs and symptoms of exposure to this material through

breathing, swallowing, and/or passage of the material through the skin may include: stomach

or intestinal upset (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea) irritation (nose, throat, airways), central

nervous system depression (dizziness, drowsiness, weakness, fatigue, nausea, headache,

unconsciousness), difficult breathing, blood in the urine, blood abnormalities (breakage of red

blood cells), kidney damage, liver damage, lung damage, coma, and death.

Developmental Information: This material (or a component) has been shown to cause

harm to the fetus in laboratory animal studies. Harm to the fetus occurs only at exposure

levels that harm the pregnant animal. The relevance of these finding to humans is uncertain.

Cancer Information: Based on the available information, this material cannot be classified

with regard to carcinogenicity. This material is not listed as a carcinogen by the International

Agency for Research on Cancer, the National Toxicology Program, or the Occupational Safety

and Health Administration. Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether has been shown to cause cancer

in laboratory animals. The relevance of this finding to humans is uncertain.

Other Health Effects: No data.

Primary Route(s) of Entry: Inhalation, skin absorption, skin contact, eye contact.

IV. FIRST AID MEASURES



Eyes: If symptoms develop, immediately move individual away from exposure and into fresh

air. Flush eyes gently with water for at least 15 minutes while holding eyelids apart; seek

immediate medical attention.

Skin: Immediately flush skin with water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated

clothing and shoes. Seek immediate medical attention. Wash clothing before reuse and

decontaminate or discard contaminated shoes. Remove contaminated clothing. Wash exposed

area with soap and water. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Launder clothing

before reuse.

Swallowing: Seek medical attention. If individual is drowsy or unconscious, do not give

anything by mouth; place individual on the left side with the head down. Contact a physician,

medical facility, or poison control center for advice about whether to induce vomiting. If

possible, do not leave individual unattended.

Inhalation: If symptoms develop, immediately move individual away from exposure and into

fresh air. Seek immediate medical attention. Seek medical attention; keep person warm and

quite. If person is not breathing, begin artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, administer

oxygen.



V. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES



Flash Point: 141 F (60 C) TCC

Explosive Limit: (for component) Lower 0.9 Upper 10.6

Autoignition Temperature: No data

Hazardous Products of Combustion: May form carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, carbon

oxides, and various hydrocarbons.

Fire and Explosion Hazards: Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along the ground

or be moved by ventilation and ignited by heat, pilot lights, other flames and ignition sources

at locations distant from material handling point. Never use welding or cutting torch on or near

drum (even empty) because product (even just residue) can ignite explosively.

Extinguishing Media: NFPA Class B extinguishers (carbon dioxide or foam) for Class IIIA

liquid fires.

Fire Fighting Instructions: Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus with a full facepiece

operated in the positive pressure demand mode with appropriate turn-out gear and chemical

resistant personal protective equipment. Refer to the personal protective equipment section of

this MSDS.

NFPA Rating: Not determined.



VI. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES



Small Spill: Absorb liquid on vermiculite, floor absorbent or other absorbent material and

transfer to hood.

Large Spill: Eliminate all ignition sources (flares, flames including pilot lights, electrical

sparks). Persons not wearing protective equipment should be excluded from area of spill until

clean-up has been completed. Stop spill at source. Prevent from entering drains, sewers,

streams or other bodies of water. Prevent from spreading. If runoff occurs, notify authorities

as required. Pump or vacuum transfer spilled product to clean containers for recovery. Absorb

unrecoverable product. Transfer contaminated absorbent, soil and other materials to

containers for disposal. Prevent run-off to sewers, streams or other bodies of water. If run-off

occurs, notify proper authorities as required, that a spill has occurred.



VII. HANDLING AND STORAGE



Handling: Containers of this material may be hazardous when emptied. Since emptied

containers retain product residues (vapor, liquid, and/or solid), all hazard precautions given in

the data sheet must be observed. All five-gallon pails and larger metal containers, including

tank cars and tank trucks, should be grounded and/or bonded when material is transferred.

Emergency eyewash fountains and safety showers should be available in the immediate

vicinity of potential exposure. Warning: Sudden release of hot organic chemical vapors or

mists from process equipment operating at elevated temperature and pressure, or sudden

ingress of air into vacuum equipment, may result in ignitions without the presence of obvious

ignition sources. Published “autoignition� or “ignition� temperature values cannot be treated as

safe operating temperatures in chemical processes without analysis of the actual process

conditions. Any use of this product in elevated temperature processes should be thoroughly

evaluated to establish and maintain safe operating conditions.

Storage: Under oxidation conditions, peroxides may be formed. If they become concentrated,

these peroxides may present an explosion hazard.



VIII. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION



Eye Protection: Chemical splash goggles and face shield (8� min.) in compliance with OSHA

regulations are advised; however, OSHA regulations also permit other type safety glasses.

Consult your industrial hygienist.

Skin Protection: Wear impervious gloves (consult your safety equipment supplier). To

prevent skin contact, wear impervious clothing and boots.

Respiratory Protection: If workplace exposure limit(s) of product or any component is

exceeded (see exposure guidelines), a NIOHS/MSHA approved air supplied respirator is

advised in absence of proper environmental control. OSHA regulations also permit other

NIOSH/MSHA respirators (negative pressure type) under specified conditions (see your

industrial hygienist). Engineering or administrative controls should be implemented to reduce

exposure.

Engineering Controls: Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust)

ventilation to maintain exposure below TLV(s).
