SUSCEPTIBILITY TO THE TOXICITY OF EXCESSIVE EXPOSURES.
Emergency/First Aid Proc: EYE:FLUSH WITH WATER FOR 15 MINUTES. HOLD
EYELIDS OPEN. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. SKIN:FLUSH WITH WATER FOR 15
MINUTES. TREAT FOR FROSTBITE BY SLOWLY WARMING UP THE EXPOSED AREA. CALL
PHYSICIAN. INHALED:REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. PROVIDE CPR/OXYGEN IF NECESSARY.
CALL A PHYSICIAN. ORAL:INGESTION IS NOT CONSIDERED A POTENTIAL ROUTE OF
EXPOSURE.
===========================================================================
Precautions for Safe Handling and Use
===========================================================================
Steps If Matl Released/Spill: WEAR PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. VENTILATE AREA
ESPECIALLY LOW OR ENCLOSED PLACES WHERE HEAVY VAPORS MIGHT COLLECT. REMOVE
OPEN FLAMES.
Neutralizing Agent: NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
Waste Disposal Method: CONTAMINATED SUVA COLD-MP CAN BE RECOVERED BY
DISTILLATION OR REMOVED TO A PERMITTED WASTE DISPOSAL FACILITY. COMPLY WITH
LOCAL, STATE AND FEDERAL REGULATIONS.
Precautions-Handling/Storing: STORE IN COOL, VENTILATED, DRY AREA AWAY
FROM FLAMES AND INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS. AVOID TEMPERATURES ABOVE 125 F
(52C).
Other Precautions: AVOID BREATHING VAPORS. AVOID EYE OR SKIN CONTACT. WASH
WITH SOAP AND WATER BEFORE EATING OR DRINKING. USE WITH ADEQUATE
VENTILATION. DO NOT MIX WITH AIR FOR LEAK TESTING ABOVE ATMOSPHERIC
PRESSURE. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
===========================================================================
Control Measures
===========================================================================
Respiratory Protection: NOT NORMALLY REQUIRED. WEAR NIOSH-APPROVED SELF-
CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS OPERATED IN POSITIVE PRESSURE MODE OR
SUPPLIED-AIR RESPIRATOR IF A LARGE RELEASE OCCURS.
Ventilation: NORMAL VENTILATION. LOCAL EXHAUST NEEDED WHEN LARGE AMOUNTS
ARE RELEASED.
Protective Gloves: LINED BUTYL WHEN HANDLING LIQUID
Eye Protection: CHEMICAL SPLASH GOGGLES WHEN HANDLE LIQ.
Other Protective Equipment: EYEBATH, SAFETY SHOWER, PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
Work Hygienic Practices: OBSERVE GOOD PERSONAL HYGIENE PRACTICES AND
RECOMMENDED PROCEDURES.
Suppl. Safety & Health Data: NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: BECAUSE OF POSSIBLE
