SECTION 3 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Emergency Overview:
Gray liquid with an ether-like odor. Extremely flammable liquid and vapor. Vapors
may cause flash fire. May cause eye and skin irritation. Inhalation of vapors or
mist may cause respiratory irritation and central nervous system effects. Swallowing
may cause irritation, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and kidney or liver disorders.
Aspiration hazard. May be fatal if swallowed. Symptoms may be delayed.

SECTION 4 FIRST AID MEASURES
CALL 1-303-623-5716 COLLECT
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing immediately. Wash all exposed areas with
soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops. Remove
dried cement with Oatey Plumber's Hand Cleaner or baby oil.
Eyes: If material gets into eyes or if fumes cause irritation, immediately
flush eyes with plenty of water until the chemical is removed. If
irritation persists, seek immediate medical attention.
Inhalation: If symptoms of exposure develop, remove to fresh air. If breathing
becomes difficult, administer oxygen. Administer artificial
respiration if breathing has stopped. Seek immediate medical attention.
Ingestion: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Rinse mouth with water. Never give anything
by mouth to a person who is unconscious or drowsy. Get immediate
medical attention by calling a Poison Control Center, or hospital
emergency room. If medical advice cannot be obtained, then take the

Media: exposed container with water. Water may be ineffective as an
extinguishing agent.
Special Fire Firefighters should wear positive pressure self-contained
Fighting breathing apparatus and full protective clothing for fires in
Procedure: areas where chemicals are used or stored
Unusual Fire and Extremely flammable liquid. Keep away from heat and all
Explosion sources of ignition including sparks, flames, lighted
Hazards: cigarettes and pilot lights. Containers may rupture or
explode in the heat of a fire. Vapors are heavier than air
and may travel to a remote ignition source and flash back.

Products:

SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Spill or Remove all sources of ignition and ventilate area. Stop leak if it
Leak can be done without risk. Personnel cleaning up the spill should
Procedures: wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including respirators
if vapor concentrations are high. Soak up spill with an inert
absorbent such as sand, earth or other non-combusting material. Put
absorbent material in covered, labeled metal containers. Prevent
liquid from entering watercourses, sewers and natural waterways.
Report releases to authorities as required. See Section 13 for
disposal information.

SECTION 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling: Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid breathing vapors
or mists. Use with adequate ventilation (equivalent to outdoors).
Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not eat, drink or smoke in the
work area. Keep product away from heat, sparks, flames and all other
sources of ignition. No smoking in storage or use areas. Keep
containers closed when not in use.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible
materials. Keep containers closed when not in use.
Other: "Empty" containers retain product residue and can be hazardous.
Follow all MSDS precautions in handling empty containers. Do not cut
or weld on or near empty or full containers.

SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Ventilation: Open doors & windows. Provide ventilation capable of maintaining
emissions at the point of use below recommended exposure limits. If
used in enclosed area, use exhaust fans. Exhaust fans should be
explosion-proof or set up in a way that flammable concentrations of
solvent vapors are not exposed to electrical fixtures or hot
surfaces.
Respiratory For operations where the exposure limit may be exceeded, a NIOSH
Protection: approved organic vapor respirator or supplied air respirator is
recommended. Equipment selection depends on contaminant type and
concentration, select in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.134 and good
industrial hygiene practice. For firefighting, use self-contained
breathing apparatus.
Skin Rubber gloves are suitable for normal use of the product. For long
Protection: exposures chemical resistant gloves may be required such as
4H(tm) or Silver Shield(tm) to avoid prolonged skin contact.

SECTION 11 TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Inhalation: Vapors or mists may cause mucous membrane and respiratory
irritation, coughing, headache, dizziness, dullness, nausea,
shortness of breath and vomiting. High concentrations may cause
central nervous system depression, narcosis and unconsciousness.
May cause kidney, liver and lung damage.
Skin: May cause irritation with redness, itching and pain.
Cyclohexanone may be absorbed through the skin causing effects
similar to those listed under inhalation.
Eye: Vapors may cause irritation. Direct contact may cause irritation
with redness, stinging and tearing of the eyes. May cause eye
damage.
Ingestion: Swallowing may cause abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea. Aspiration during swallowing or vomiting can cause
chemical pneumonia and lung damage. May cause kidney and liver
damage.
Chronic Prolonged or repeated overexposure cause dermatitis and damage
Toxicity: to the kidney, liver, lungs and central nervous system.
Toxicity Data: Cyclohexanone: Oral rat LD50: 1,620 mg/kg
Inhalation rat LC50: 8,000 ppm/4 hours
Skin rabbit LD50: 1 mL/kg
Tetrahydrofuran: Oral rat LD50: 1,650 mg/kg

SECTION 11 (Continued)
Methyl Ethyl Ketone: Oral rat LD50: 2,737 mg/kg
Inhalation rat LC50: 23,500 mg/m3/8 hrs
Skin rabbit LD50: 6,480 mg/kg
Sensitization: None of the components are known to cause sensitization.
Carcinogenicity: None of the components are listed as a carcinogen or suspect
carcinogen by NTP, IARC or OSHA. The National Toxicology Program
has reported that exposure of mice and rats to tetrahydrofuran
(THF) vapor levels up to 1800 ppm 6 hr/day, 5 days/week for their
lifetime caused an increased incidence of kidney tumors in male
rats and liver tumors in female mice. The significance of these
findings for human health is unclear at this time, and may be
related to "species specific" effects. Elevated incidences of
tumors in humans have not been reported for THF. ACGIH has
classified cyclohexanone (CYH) and tetrahydrofuran as 鈥淎3,鈥?
Confirmed Animal Carcinogens with Unknown Relevance to Humans.
Mutagenicity: Cyclohexanone has been positive in bacterial and mammalian
assays. Methyl ethyl ketone and tetrahydrofuran are
generally thought not to be mutagenic.
Reproductive Methyl ethyl ketone and cyclohexanone have been shown to cause
Toxicity: embryofetal toxicity and birth defects in laboratory animals.
Tetrahydrofuran has been found to cause adverse
developmental effects only when exposure levels cause other
toxic effects to the mother.
