Target Organs/Medical Eyes.
Conditions Aggravated by
Overexposure:
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Contact: Promptly wash eyes with lots of water while lifting eye lids. Continue to rinse for at
least 15 minutes. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.
Skin Contact: Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and
launder before reuse. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues.
Inhalation: Move person to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is
difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Ingestion: Dilute with 2 - 3 glasses of water or milk, if conscious. Never give anything by mouth
to an unconscious person. If signs of irritation or toxicity occur seek medical
attention.
General Notes: Persons seeking medical attention should carry a copy of this MSDS with them.

Other Flammable Properties: ND
Extinguishing Media: Water fog, carbon dioxide, foam, dry chemical.
Protection Of Fire-Fighters:
Special Fire-Fighting Procedures: Do not enter fire area without proper personal protective equipment, including
NIOSH/MSHA approved self-contained breathing apparatus. Evacuate area and fight fire from a safe distance. Water
spray may be used to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Keep water run off out of sewers and waterways.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Oxides of: Carbon. Aluminum
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Precautions: Use personal protective equipment identified in Section 8.
Spill Procedures: Evacuate surrounding area, if necessary. Keep personnel removed and upwind of
spill. Extinguish all ignition sources. Avoid sparks, flames, heat and smoking. Shut
off leak if it can be done safely. Contain spilled material. Absorb in vermiculite, dry
sand or earth. Place into containers for disposal.
Environmental Precautions: Do not allow to enter sewer or surface and subsurface waters. Waste must be
disposed of in accordance with federal, state and local laws. In the U.S., for products
with reportable quanitity (RQ) components - if the RQ is exceeded, report to National
Spill Response Office at 1 800 424 8802.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling: Put on appropriate personal protective equipment. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Avoid breathing vapors or spray mists. Use only in a well ventilated area. Wash
thoroughly after handling.

Trade Name: DEFOAM-X*
MSDS NO. 10168 Revision Date: 02/13/2004 Page 3/5
Storage: Store in dry, well-ventilated area. Keep container closed. Keep away from heat,
sparks and flames. Store away from incompatibles. Follow safe warehousing
practices regarding palletizing, banding, shrink-wrapping and/or stacking.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Exposure Limits (TLV & PEL - 8H TWA):
Ingredient CAS No. Wt. % ACGIH TLV OSHA PEL Other Notes
Polyglycol 60 - 100 NA NA NA None
5 - 10 10 mg/m3 (as 15 mg/m3

mg/m3
(respirable)
(as Al)
Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation as necessary to maintain exposures to within applicable limits.
Personal Protection Equipment
Eye/Face Protection: Wear chemical safety goggles.
Skin Protection: Wear appropriate clothing to prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact. Wear
chemical resistant gloves such as nitrile or neoprene.
Respiratory Protection: If exposed to particulates/aerosols:
Use at least a NIOSH-approved N95 half-mask disposable particulate respirator. In
work environments containing oil mist/aerosol use at least a NIOSH-approved P95
half-mask disposable or reuseable particulate respirator.
If exposed to organic vapors:
Use a NIOSH/MSHA-approved organic vapor respirator. CCROV: CCR with organic
vapor cartridge.
A NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator with ammonia/methylamine cartridges should
be used to protect against ammonia or amine inhalation exposure.
Refer to Exposure Limits table (Section 8) for component specific respiratory
protection recommendations.
General Hygiene Considerations: Work clothes should be washed separately at the end of each work day. Disposable
clothing should be discarded, if contaminated with product.
