Section 5 - Health Hazard Data
Effects of Overexposure
Eyes: may cause stinging, tearing, redness, swelling, blurred vision and possible freeze
burns.
Skin: Liquid can cause severe freeze burns similar to frostbite.
Inhalation: Inhalation of vapor may produce anesthetic effects and feeling euphoria.
Prolonged over-exposure can cause rapid breathing, headache, dizziness, narcosis,
unconsciousness, and death from asphyxiation, depending on concentration and time of
exposure.
Ingestion: Aspiration hazard!
Primary Routes of Entry: Inhalation.

or Volatile Hydrocarbon Vapors.
Conditions to Avoid: Open flame, heat, sparks, electrical equipment or any means which can
cause high temperatures at or above 120潞 F.
Materials to Avoid: Strong oxidizing agents or reducing agents, strong acids and bases.
Section 7 - Spills or Leaks Procedures
Steps to be Taken
Small leaks can be mopped or wiped immediately. Remove materials to out-of-doors or to a
source of adequate ventilation and storage. Large leaks should be handled as follows: Evacuate
area. Contain liquid; transfer to closed metal containers. Avoid open flames, sparks and heat
sources. Keep out of water supplies. Do not apply directly to lakes, streams, tidal marshes, or
estuaries. Do not apply when weather conditions favor drift from areas treated. Do not
contaminate water by cleaning of equipment or disposal wastes.
Waste Disposal
Dispose in accordance with local, state and federal regulations.
Do not puncture or incinerate containers.
Section 8 - Safe Handling and Use Information
Respiratory Protection: Use only with adequate ventilation. Use of protective equipment is
necessary if PEL and TLV levels are exceeded. In enclosed spaces use a NIOSH approved
organic vapor/mist cartridge respirator or positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus.
Ventilation: Large opened areas or sufficient mechanical (General and/or Local Exhaust)
ventilation to maintain exposure below PEL and TLV levels.
Protective Equipment: Gloves, Safety Glasses, respiratory protection, long-sleeve shirt
depending on levels and length of exposure.
Hygienic Practices: Observe normal hygienic practices. Wash hands after use. Wash clothing
before reuse.
