Ingredient Name CAS RegistryNumber Typical Wt. % OSHA
Butylstannoic acid 2273-43-0 > 95 Y
The substance(s) marked with a "Y" in the OSHA column, are identified as hazardous chemicals according to the
criteria of the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200)
This material is classified as hazardous under Federal OSHA regulation.
The components of this product are all on the TSCA Inventory list.
3 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Emergency Overview
White powder with a characteristic odor.
CAUTION!
MAY CAUSE RESPIRATORY TRACT IRRITATION.
MAY FORM EXPLOSIVE DUST-AIR MIXTURES.
IMPROPER TRANSFER MAY CAUSE ELECTROSTATIC SPARK
Potential Health Effects
Inhalation and skin contact are expected to be the primary routes of occupational exposure to this material. Based on
single exposure animal tests, it is considered to be practically non-toxic if swallowed, no more than slightly toxic if
absorbed through skin, slightly irritating to eyes and non-irritating to skin. A number of other organotin compounds
have been shown to be upper respiratory tract irritants, suggesting precautions against exposure.

4 FIRST AID MEASURES
IN CASE OF CONTACT, flush the area with plenty of water. Remove material from clothing. Wash clothing
before reuse.
IF SWALLOWED, induce vomiting as directed by medical personnel. Get medical attention. NEVER GIVE
ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON.
IF INHALED, remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, get medical attention.

Extinguishing Media
Use water spray, carbon dioxide, foam or dry chemical.
Fire Fighting Instructions
Contain run-off from fire. Fire fighters and others who may be exposed to products of combustion should wear
full fire fighting turn out gear (full Bunker Gear) and self-contained breathing apparatus (pressure demand
NIOSH approved or equivalent). Fire fighting equipment should be thoroughly decontaminated after use.
Fire and Explosion Hazards
When burned, the following hazardous products of combustion can occur:
Oxides of carbon
Tin oxides
6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
In Case of Spill or Leak
Stop the leak, if possible. Ventilate the space involved. Absorb, sweep up, place in container for disposal.
Reduce dust spreading with a water spray. Shut off or remove all ignition sources. Prevent waterway
contamination. Construct a dike to prevent spreading. Protect workers with water spray. Collect run-off
water and transfer to drums or tanks for later disposal. Avoid creating a dusty atmosphere. Consult a
regulatory specialist to determine appropriate state or local reporting requirements, for assistance in waste
characterization and/or hazardous waste disposal and other requirements listed in pertinent environmental
permits.
Clean up procedures: Transfer to containers, preparatory for later disposal. Avoid generation of dusts. Place
in non-sparking containers for recovery or disposal. Remove from spill location. Flush area with water spray,
collect rinsate.

7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling
Avoid breathing dust.
Keep container closed.
Use only with adequate ventilation.
Avoid creating dust in handling, transfer or clean-up.
Emptied container retains vapor and product residue. Observe all labeled safeguards until container is
cleaned, reconditioned or destroyed.
Storage
This material is not hazardous under normal storage conditions; however, material should be stored in
closed containers, in a secure area to prevent container damage and subsequent spillage.
8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering Controls
Investigate engineering techniques to reduce exposures below airborne exposure limits. Provide ventilation
if necessary to control exposure levels below airborne exposure limits (see below). If practical, use local
mechanical exhaust ventilation at sources of air contamination such as open process equipment.
Eye / Face Protection
Use good industrial practice to avoid eye contact.
Skin Protection
Minimize skin contamination by following good industrial hygiene practice. Wearing protective gloves is
recommended. Wash hands and contaminated skin thoroughly after handling.
Respiratory Protection
Avoid breathing dust. When airborne exposure limits are exceeded (see below), use NIOSH approved
respiratory protection equipment appropriate to the material and/or its components. Consult respirator
manufacturer to determine appropriate type equipment for given application. Observe respirator use
limitations specified by NIOSH or the manufacturer. For emergency and other conditions where exposure
limit may be significantly exceeded, use an approved full face positive-pressure, self-contained breathing
apparatus or positive-pressure airline with auxiliary self-contained air supply. Respiratory protection
programs must comply with 29 CFR 搂 1910.134.

-Only those components with exposure limits are printed in this section.
-Skin contact limits designated with a "Y" above have skin contact effect. Air sampling alone is insufficient to accurately quantitate
exposure. Measures to prevent significant cutaneous absorption may be required.
-ACGIH Sensitizer designator with a value of "Y" above means that exposure to this material may cause allergic reactions.
-WEEL-AIHA Sensitizer designator with a value of "Y" above means that exposure to this material may cause allergic skin reactions.
