3 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Route of Entry: Eyes, Skin, Ingestion
Target Organs: None known
Inhalation: Excessive inhalation of vapors can cause irritation to musous membrane, respiratory irritation,
dizziness, headache.
Skin Contact: Prolonged or repeated contact can cause irritation to persons with sensitive skin.
Eye Contact: Can cause severe irritation, redness, tearing, blurred vision.
Ingestion: Can cause gastrontestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarhea. Aspiration of material into the lungs
can cause chemical pneumonia which can be fatal.
4 FIRST AID MEASURES
Inhalation: If overexposure occurs, remove victim to fresh air. If breathing stops, administer artificial respiration. Seek
immediate medical attention.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing as soon as possible. Wash exposed skin thoroughly with soap and water. If
irritation persists, consult a physician. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Extremely contaminated

irritation persists, consult a physician. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Extremely contaminated
leather shoes should be discarded.
Eye Contact: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If necessary, gently hold open eyelids during the
flush. Immediately seek medical attention.
Ingestion: If a large amounts of material is swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Should vomiting occur, be sure to keep
victim's head below hips to avoid aspiration of vomitus into the lungs. Immediately consult a physician. Do
not attempt to give liquid to an unconscious person.
5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point: Not applicable
Flash Point Method: Not applicable
Burning Rate: No data available
Autoignition Temperature: No data available
LEL: NA
UEL: NA
Flammability Classificati Non flammable
Other:
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: None. This material is water based. Use water spray to protect fire-fighters. If water is to be
used, use a fog nozzel to cool closed containers. Avoid spraying directly into open containers to prevent boilover.
Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose such containers to heat, flame, sparks, static electricity, or
other sources of ignition; containers may explode and cause injury or death.
6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
SMALL SPILLS: Absorb with an inert material (sand, vermiculite, etc.). Sweep or scoop up into disposal containers. Flush
area immediately with water (prevent water from entering waterways).
LARGE SPILLS:
Containment: For large spills, dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal. Do not release into sewers or waterways.
Clean-up: Absorb with an inert meterial (sand, vermiculite, etc.). Sweep or scoop up into disposal containers. Flush area
immediately with water (prevent water from entering waterways).
Regulaory Requirements: Follow applicable OSHA regulations (29 CFR 1910.120).
7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling Precautions: For professional use only. Avoid eye/skin contact. Wash after using and before eating or
drinking. Avoid breathing vapors. Use as directed.
Storage Requirements: Store in a cool/dry location.
Containers of this material may be hazardous when emptied. Since containers retain product
residues (vapor, liquid, and/or solid), all hazard precautions given in the data sheet must be
observed.
8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering Controls:
Protective Equipment: VENTILATION: Provide general or local exhaust ventilation systems to maintain clean air. Local
exhaust ventilation is preferred because it prevents contaminant dispersion into the work areas by
controlling it at its source.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Seek professional advice prior to respirator selection and use.
Follow OSHA respirator regulations (29 CFR 1910.134) and, if necessary wear OSHA/NIOSH

Follow OSHA respirator regulations (29 CFR 1910.134) and, if necessary wear OSHA/NIOSH
approved respirator. Select respirator based on its suitability to provide adequate worker
protection for given working conditions, level of airborne contamination, and presence of sufficient
oxygen.
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING/EQUIPMENT: Wear chemically protective gloves and goggles, per
OSHA eye and face protection regulations (29 CFR 1910.133).
CONTAMINATED EQUIPMENT: Separate contaminated work clothes from street clothes.
Launder before reuse. Remove this material from your work shoes and clean personal protective
equipment.
