HUMAN HEALTH HAZARDS - ACUTE :
EYE CONTACT :
Corrosive. Will cause eye burns and permanent tissue damage.
SKIN CONTACT :
May cause severe irritation or tissue damage depending on the length of exposure and the type of first aid
administered.
INGESTION :
Not a likely route of exposure. Corrosive, causes burns to gastro-intestinal tract. Nausea, vomiting and stomach
pain may occur. In severe cases blood may be vomited.
INHALATION :
Irritating to the eyes, nose, throat and lungs.
SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE :
Acute :
Inhalation of high concentrations of organic solvents can cause nausea, dizziness, vomiting, stupor or
unconsciousness.
Chronic :
Frequent or prolonged contact with product may defat and dry the skin, leading to discomfort and dermatitis.
AGGRAVATION OF EXISTING CONDITIONS :
Skin contact may aggravate an existing dermatitis condition.
HUMAN HEALTH HAZARDS - CHRONIC :
This product contains naphthalene. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has evaluated
naphthalene and determined it to be possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B, based on sufficient evidence in
experimental animals and inadequate evidence in humans).
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
IF SWALLOWED: Do not induce vomiting, drink large quantities of fluid and call a physician immediately.
IF INHALED: Remove immediately to fresh air. If not breathing, apply artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Call a physician.
IF ON SKIN: Immediately flush with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing
and wash before reuse.
IF IN EYES: Immediately flush with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes, and get medical attention.

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA :
Alcohol foam, Carbon dioxide, Dry powder, Other extinguishing agent suitable for Class B fires, For large fires, use
water spray or fog, thoroughly drenching the burning material.
Keep containers cool by spraying with water.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD :
May evolve oxides of carbon (COx) under fire conditions. May evolve oxides of nitrogen (NOx) under fire conditions.
Combustible Liquid; may form combustible mixtures at or above the flash point. Empty product containers may
contain product residue. Do not pressurize, cut, heat, weld, or expose containers to flame or other sources of
ignition.
SPECIAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR FIRE FIGHTING :
In case of fire, wear a full face positive-pressure self contained breathing apparatus and protective suit.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS :
Restrict access to area as appropriate until clean-up operations are complete. Ensure clean-up is conducted by
trained personnel only. Ventilate spill area if possible. Do not touch spilled material. Remove sources of ignition.
Stop or reduce any leaks if it is safe to do so. Use personal protective equipment recommended in Section 8
(Exposure Controls/Personal Protection). Notify appropriate government, occupational health and safety and
environmental authorities.
METHODS FOR CLEANING UP :
SMALL SPILLS: Soak up spill with absorbent material. Place residues in a suitable, covered, properly labeled
container. Wash affected area. LARGE SPILLS: Contain liquid using absorbent material, by digging trenches or by
diking. Reclaim into recovery or salvage drums or tank truck for proper disposal. Wash site of spillage thoroughly
with water. Contact an approved waste hauler for disposal of contaminated recovered material. Dispose of material
in compliance with regulations indicated in Section 13 (Disposal Considerations).
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS :
Prevent material from entering sewers or waterways.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING :
Avoid eye and skin contact. Do not take internally. Do not breathe vapors/gases/dust. Do not get in eyes, on skin,
on clothing. Have emergency equipment (for fires, spills, leaks, etc.) readily available. Ensure all containers are
labelled. Keep the containers closed when not in use. Use with adequate ventilation. Do not use in locations where
vapor is likely to travel to welding flames or arcs or to other hot surfaces. Vapors are much heavier than air, this can
result in uneven distribution.
STORAGE CONDITIONS :
Store the containers tightly closed. Store in suitable labelled containers. Store away from heat and sources of
ignition. Store separately from oxidizers. Have appropriate fire extinguishers available in and near the storage area.

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION :
Where concentrations in air may exceed the limits given in this section, the use of a half face filter mask or air
supplied breathing apparatus is recommended. A suitable filter material depends on the amount and type of
chemicals being handled. Consider the use of filter type: Multi-contaminant cartridge (Gold) with a Particulate pre-
filter (Purple). In event of emergency or planned entry into unknown concentrations a positive pressure, full-
facepiece SCBA should be used. If respiratory protection is required, institute a complete respiratory protection
program including selection, fit testing, training, maintenance and inspection.
