3 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Signs & Symptoms of Short-Term (Acute) Exposure
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. Eye contact causes irritation, redness, tearing, blurred vision. Vapors may cause severe eye irritation,
redness, tearing and blurred vision. Prolonged skin contact may lead to extraction of natural oils with resultant dry skin,
cracking, irritation and determatitis. Swallowing may cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Notice:
intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents maybe harmful or fatal.
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. Repeated
inhalation of vapor in high concentration can change the blood picture.
4 FIRST AID MEASURES
Skin
Wash area thoroughly with soap and water and rinse.
Eye
Flush immediately with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Eyelids should be held away from the eyeball to
ensure thorough rinsing.

5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing Media
Foam, carbon dioxide, dry chemical power
Basic Fire Fighting Procedures
Water may be ineffective. Water should be used to cool containers exposed to fire. Fire fighting personnel should wear
self-contained breathing apparatus.
Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards
Keep container tightly closed, isolate from heat, sparks, electrical equipment and open flame. Closed containers may
explode when exposed to extreme heat. During emergency conditions over exposure to decomposition products may cause
a health hazard. Symptoms may not be immediately apparent. Obtain medical attention.
