Section 3 - Health Hazard Data
HEALTH EFFECTS - (Acute and Chronic)
Ingestion HARMFUL IF INGESTED The nature of an aerosol product is such that ingestion is unlikely.
Inhalation FATAL OR HARMFUL IF INHALED Overexposure can cause CNS depression with
anaesthetic effects such as dizziness, headache, confusion, incoordination, and loss of
consciousness. Higher exposures to vapors may cause temporary alteration of the heart's
electrical activity, with irregular pulse, palpitations, or inadequate circulation; or fatality from
gross overexposure.
Eye Irritation. NOTE: Direct contact with spray can result in frostbite.

Skin Irritation, defatting, dermatitis. NOTE: Direct contact with spray can result in frostbite.
PRIMARY ROUTES OF ENTRY Inhalation, Skin
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE
May aggravate diseases of the central nervous system, heart rhythm, or other cardiovascular diseases, or
pulmonary diseases. If a person has one or more of these problems, consult medical personnel to determine
what steps should be taken.
EMERGENCY FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Eye Contact Flush thoroughly with water for 15 minutes, consult a physician.
Skin Contact Do not apply directly to skin! If accidentally discharged onto skin, flush promptly with lots of
water and then wash with soap and water. Launder contaminated clothes before re-use.
Inhalation Remove to fresh air. Keep person warm and quiet. Apply artificial respiration if breathing
has stopped. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. **Get Medical Help at once**
Ingestion **Get Medical Help at once** Aspiration into lungs can cause chemical pneumonia.
**Induce vomiting ONLY IF advised by physician.**
**Note to Medical Personnel**
Because of increased risk of disturbances of cardiac rhythm (eliciting cardiac disrhythmias),
Catecholamine drugs (Epinephrine, Adrenaline) should be used only with special caution and only
in situations of emergency life support and only as a last resort.

Extinguishing Media
Carbon Dioxide, Foam, Dry Chemical, Water Fog. Using water to cool exposed containers may be useful.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures
At elevated temperatures, pressurized containers may burst, vent, or rupture. Use equipment or shielding to
protect personnel against bursting, rupturing, or venting containers. Cooling with water streams may be

helpful.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards
Concentrated vapors can be ignited by high-intensity ignition source. Due to thermal decomposition products,
firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with full facepiece operated in positive
pressure mode.
Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid)
Strong oxidizers, strong caustics, high heat, reactive metals such as sodium, potassium, zinc, magnesium,
aluminum.
Hazardous Decomposition Products
Silicon oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrofluoric acid, fluorine, formaldehyde, phosgene and
other carbonyl fluorides could be expected.
This product contains methylpolysiloxanes, which can generate formaldehyde at about 300掳 F (150掳 C)
and above, in atmospheres that contain oxygen. Formaldehyde is a skin and respiratory sensitizer, eye
and throat irritant, acute toxicant, and potential cancer hazard.
Will Hazardous Polymerization Occur? No
Conditions to Avoid for Polymerization: N/A
Is the Product Stable? Yes
Conditions to Avoid for Stability
Avoid contact with open flame, electric arcs, or other hot surfaces that can cause thermal decomposition.
Avoid temperatures high enough to burst container (see special fire fighting procedure above) and spraying
into flame or onto red-hot surfaces, which may cause decomposition.
Section 6 - Spill or Leak Procedures
Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled
Ventilate area to reduce concentration of the components below their exposure limits. Remove sources of
ignition. Use protective equipment consistent with the situation. Pick up the spill on absorbent material; store
in closed containers for proper disposal. Remove residue to prevent a slippery condition developing.
Waste Disposal Methods
Consult Federal, State, and Local regulations. When empty (zero pressure), open valve fully and break off
plastic T-handle to keep valve from being closed. Since residue remains when tank is empty, leave label on.
Dispose of tank according to local regulations. Where possible, please recycle.
Section 7 - Exposure Control Information
Ventilation
General or local exhaust, or mechanical or special ventilation to maintain below exposure limits.
Respiratory Protection
Generally not required if sufficient ventilation is provided. If the exposure limits of the product or any of its
components are exceeded, an approved organic vapor mask should be used as a minimum (consult your

safety equipment supplier).
Protective Gloves
Where prolonged or repeated contact is likely, use impervious gloves (example neoprene).
Other Protective Equipment
If contact with the spray is likely, eye protection is recommended. Chemical monogoggles or safety glasses
with side shields and a face shield will provide protection in most situations.
Other Engineering Controls To determine exposure levels, monitoring should be performed
Work Practices
Do not use in confined or closed space. Ventilation should maintain the concentration of the product or its
components below their exposure limits. We consider it good practice to minimize exposure to the mist from
this product, maintaining exposure below the OSHA 5 mg/m3 TWA oil mist exposure limit.
Hygienic Practices
Wash thoroughly before eating or smoking after using this or any chemical product.
Section 8 - Special Precautions
Precautions to be Taken in Handling and Storage
Store in cool, dry area out of direct sunlight. Do not puncture, burn, or store above 120掳 F.
Maintenance Precautions Do not remove or deface label.
Other Precautions
Read and follow directions and cautions on the container label, and any accompanying literature.
Additional Comments
Accumulated overspray could make floors slippery. Use necessary housekeeping and work rules to prevent
slipping.
CAUTION Intentional misuse of this chemical product, as with any industrial chemical, in contact with the body can
be harmful or fatal. This includes such things as deliberately breathing, placing in mouth, swallowing, placing on skin,
or any other body contact, or repeated, or continuous contact.
