SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Contact: If this product comes in contact with eyes, Flush eye with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes
and seek medical attention.
Skin Contact: If this product comes in contact with skin, remove material with mineral oil, then wash with soap
and plenty of water.
Inhalation: If respiratory discomfort occurs, remove to fresh air. If discomfort continues, administer oxygen
and get medical attention.
Ingestion: If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Get medical attention.
SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point (PMCC): 104掳F Minimum
Dust Explosivity Limits: Not Applicable.
Extinguishing Media: Carbon dioxide (CO2 ), foam, or dry chemical. Water may be used to
Cool containers exposed to heat.
Fire Fighting Instructions: Minimize breathing vapors, gases or fumes of decomposition products.
Do not enter any enclosed or confined fire space without proper
protective equipment, including self-contained breathing apparatus.
Unusual Fire Hazards: When heated above flash point, material will release flammable vapors
which can burn or be explosive in confined spaces if ignited. Do not mix
with strong oxidants such as liquid chlorine or concentrated oxygen.
SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Eliminate sources of ignition, and ventilate the area. Add sand or earth or absorb spill with suitable absorbent
material and place in a closed container.
Keep product out of sewers and waterways by diking or impounding. Advise authorities if product has entered or
may enter sewers or waterways. Assure conformity with applicable governmental regulations.

SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along the ground or be moved by ventilation to locations distant from
the point of material handling. To prevent fumes from entering buildings or confined areas, close all air intake
sources near the material handling or the work area. To prevent ignition, avoid smoking, keep away from heat,
open flames and sources of static or electrical sparking. Use explosion proof motors and equipment. Tank trucks
or other containers should be grounded and/or bonded when the material is transferred.
Avoid prolonged or repeated inhalation of vapors or spray mists. Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact.
Adhere to good hygienic practices. Avoid open flames. Use with adequate ventilation.
Store in a cool, dry place, out of direct sunlight and away from heat, sparks, and flame.
Health studies have shown that many petroleum hydrocarbons pose potential human health risks which may
vary from person to person. As a precaution, exposure to liquids, vapors, mists or fumes should be minimized.
SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION
Respiratory Protection: Use supplied-air respirator in confined areas or with vapors in high concentrations.
Ventilation: Local Exhaust: In enclosed areas. Special: None
Mechanical: In enclosed areas. Other: None
Eye Protection: Safety glasses or face shield for liquid material.
Protective Gloves: Solvent impervious gloves.
Other Protective Clothing Equipment: Long sleeves and impervious clothing to protect against splashing.
Work/Hygienic Practices: See Section 7.
