3 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Potential Health Effects, Skin
Skin contact may lead to degreasing with resultant dry skin, cracking, irritation and dermatitis.
Potential Health Effects, Eye
Eye contact with liquid may cause severe irritation, redness, tearing and blurred vision. Vapors may cause severe eye
irritation, redness, tearing and blurred vision.
Potential Health Effects, Inhalation
Excessive vapor concentration in air, especially in confined spaces, may cause asphyxiation. Excessive inhalation of
vapors can cause nasal, throat and respiratory irritation, dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea, headache and possible
unconsciousness. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful or fatal.
Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous
system damage.
Potential Health Effects, Ingestion
Swallowing may cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
Effects of Long-Term (Chronic) Exposure
Health studies have shown that many solvents pose potential human health risks which may vary from person to person.
As a precaution, exposure to liquids and vapors should be minimized. -Prolonged or continuous inhalation of vapors may
result in delayed lung damage. -Repeated or prolonged inhalation of vapor may cause liver and kidney damage.

4 FIRST AID MEASURES
Skin
Wash area thoroughly with soap and water and rinse. DO NOT use solvents or thinners.
Eye
Remove contact lenses, keep eyelids open. Flush with plenty of water (10-15 minutes). Call a physician.
Inhalation
Remove to fresh air and keep warm. If breathing is difficult: artificial respiration. Call for a physician.
Ingestion
Do not induce vomiting. Call for medical assistance. Keep at rest.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure
This product is unlikely to harm health, given normal and proper handling and hygienic precautions. Prolonged inhalation of
vapors in high concentrations may lead to headache, giddiness and nausea. In case of contact with the product danger of
resorption through the skin, irritation of skin/mucous membranes.
5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing Media
Suitable: alcohol resistant foam, CO2, powders, water spray.
Not suitable: water jet
Basic Fire Fighting Procedures
Fire will produce dense black smoke. Exposure to decomposition products may cause a health hazard. Appropriate
breathing apparatus may be required.
Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards
Cool endangered containers with water in case of fire. Do not allow the quenching water into the sewage system.

6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Environmental Precautions
Do not empty into drains. If the product contaminates lakes, rivers or sewer systems, inform appropriate authorities in
accordance with local regulations.
Spill or Leak Procedure
Remove sources of ignition. Ventilate area. Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible absorbent materials, e.g.
sand, earth, vermiculite, diatomaceous earth and place in container for disposal according to local regulations. Clean
preferably with a detergent. Avoid use of solvents. Do not allow to enter drains or watercourses. If the product contaminates
lakes, rivers or sewages, inform appropriate authorities in accordance with local regulations.
7 HANDLING & STORAGE
Handling
Prevent the creations of flammable or explosive concentration of dust in air and avoid dust concentration higher then the
occupational exposure limits. Additionally, the product should only be used in areas from which all naked lights and other
sources of ignition have been excluded. Comply with the health and safety at work laws. Vapors are heavier than air and
may spread along floors. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Preparation may change electrostatically: always
use earthing leads when transferring from one container to another. Operators should wear antistatic footwear and clothing.
No sparking tools should be used.

Storage
Containers which are opened must be carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage. Keep container tightly closed.
Never use pressure to empty: container is not a pressure vessel. No smoking. Prevent unauthorized access. Keep away
from oxidizing agents, from strongly alkaline and strongly acid materials. Always keep in containers of same material as the
original one. Avoid heating and direct sunlight.
Ventilation
Provide adequate ventilation. Where reasonably practicable this should be achieved by the use of local exhaust ventilation
and good general extraction. If these are not sufficient in maintaining concentrations of particles and solvent vapor below
the OEL, suitable respiratory protection must be worn.
8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Eye Protection: Personal Protection Equipments (PPE)
Wear safety glasses.
Skin Protection: Personal Protection Equipments (PPE)
Use protective gloves. After washing hands replace lost skin fat by bat containing skin creams. Personal should wear anti
static clothings made of natural fiber or of high temperature resistant synthetic fiber. All parts of the body should be washed
after contact.
Respiratory Protection: Personal Protection Equipments (PPE)
If workplace limits are exceeded, a gas mask approved for this particular job must be worn.
