Acute Effects Note: This product may release ammonia or amines when heated or exposed to high pH. Ammonia is a
severe eye, skin and respiratory irritant. Ammonia has a very strong odor and can be detected at levels as low as 5 ppm.
Many amines are also eye, skin and respiratory irritants.

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: Do not induce vomiting. Dilute with 2 - 3 glasses of water or milk, if conscious.
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention.
General Notes: Persons seeking medical attention should carry a copy of this MSDS with them.
Notes To Physician: Aspiration may cause severe lung damage. Evacuate stomach in a way which
avoids aspiration.

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: Ammonia. Oxides of carbon and nitrogen.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Precautions: Use personal protective equipment identified in Section 8.
Spill Procedures: Evacuate surrounding area, if necessary. Spilled product is very slippery. 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.

MSDS NO. 10094 Revision Date: 05/20/2004 Page 3/6
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. Spilled
product is very slippery. Wash thoroughly after handling.
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.

Notes
(1) Control as an ACGIH particulate not otherwise specified (PNOS): 10 mg/m3 (Inhalable); 3 mg/m3 (Respirable) and an
OSHA particulate not otherwise regulated (PNOR): 15 mg/m3 (Total); 5 mg/m3 (Respirable).
(3) For Oil mist, mineral: ACGIH TLV 5 mg/m3, STEL 10 mg/m3; OSHA PEL 5 mg/m3
(6) Ammonia or amines may be released when this component is heated or exposed to high pH. The recommended
exposure limits for ammonia are ACGIH TLV 25 ppm and OSHA PEL 50 ppm. No general recommended exposure limit
is available for amines. A NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator with ammonia/methylamine cartridges should be used to
protect against ammonia or amine inhalation exposure.
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: Wash promptly with soap and water if skin becomes contaminated. Change work
clothing daily if there is any possibility of contamination.

Product Toxicological Information:
This product may contain trace amounts (<0.1%) of acrylamide. The International Agency for Research on Cancer
(IARC) has designated acrylamide a Group 2A (probably carcinogenic to humans). This designation was based on
sufficient evidence in experimental animals for the carcinogenicity of acrylamide (IARC Vol. 60, 1994, p. 389).
The National Toxicology Program (NTP) classifies acrylamide as "reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen"
based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in experimental animals (10th Annual Report on Carcinogens, 2002).
Acrylamide is a possible mutagen (promotes a mutation (change in chemistry of a gene)) (IARC Vol. 60, 1994, p. 389).
