Inhalation: Remove to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen (To be
administered by qualified medical personnel only!) Get medical attention.
Ingestion: If victim is conscious and alert, wash out mouth with water. (Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person!)
Get medical attention immediately.
Skin: Flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated clothing. Discard contaminated
shoes. Seek medical attention.
Eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids. Do not allow victim to
rub or keep eyes closed. Get medical aid immediately.
Other Health Warnings:
V. Fire Fighting Measures:
Flash Point: 90 F Lower Explosive Limit: 4% Upper Explosive Limit: 46%
F.P. Method:
Fire Extinguishing Media: Water spray, appropriate foam, dry chemical powder--DO NOT use carbon dioxide
Special Fire Fighting Procedures:
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing. Water may be used to cool fire-exposed containers.
Unusual Fire and Explosion:
Vapors from this product may travel some distance from original point to an ignition source and flash back. Generates combustible
hydrogen gas on contact with acids or strong oxidizing agents.
VI. Accidental Release Measures:
Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled:
Wear vapor respirator, safety goggles, and rubber gloves. Remove sources of ignition (i.e. open flames, sparks). Soak up with
inert absorbent material (dry lime, sand, or soda ash recommended; do not use flammable substances such as sawdust). Use
non-sparking tools. Ventilate and wash spill site after collection. Dispose according to local, state, and federal regulations.
VII. Handling and Storage:
Precautions to be Taken:
Keep in tightly closed container. Keep cool and dry. Avoid all ignition sources (heat, open flame, spark). Avoid incompatible
materials. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Avoid inhalation. Avoid prolonged or
repeated exposure. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Other Precautions:
DO NOT smoke while using this product.
VIII. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection:
Ventilation Requirements:
Use only in well-ventilated areas.
Personal Protective Equipment:
Safety goggles, gloves, vapor respirator, protective clothing
