******************************************************************************
Emergency Overview:
Dark amber liquid. If inhaled can cause headache, dizziness, nausea,
drowsiness, irritation to respiratory system, possible unconsciousness and
asphyxiation. Leave area to breathe fresh air. Avoid further overexposure.
If symptoms persist get medical attention immediately.
******************************************************************************
Potential Hlth Effect/Rte of Entry:
-----------------------------------
Inhalation:
Can cause headache, dizziness, nausea, drowsiness, stupor, irritation to
respiratory system, possible unconsciousness and asphyxiation.
Eyes:
Can cause severe irritation, tearing, blurred vision.
Ingestion:
Can cause gastrointestinal irritation, vomiting and diarrhea. Aspiration
into the lungs can cause chemical pneumonitis which can be fatal.
Skin:
Can cause irritation, dermatitis.
Aggravated Medical Conditions:
Pre-existing eye, skin, liver, kidney and respiratory disorders may be
aggravated by exposure.
Acute Health Effects:
See effects described above.

Order Code: 252148 996
Chronic Health Effects:
Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to
solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse
by deliberately concentrating and inhaling contents may be harmful or
fatal.Prolonged or repeated contact/exposure to xylene and/or ethylbenzene
may cause defatting, drying and irritation of the skin, dermatititis, CNS
effects described above, heart muscle sensitization and arrhythmia, hearing
loss, and brain, liver, kidney and and testes damage. Prolonged xylene
overexposure may affect fetal development. The risk of the effects of
xylene should be insignificant in well ventilated areas.
Overexposure to carbon tetrachloride can cause labored breathing, muscle
twitches, abdominal pain, jaundice, detrimental effects on liver and
kidney. Based on animal experiments, the NTP concluded that carbon
tetrachloride may be reasonably anticipated to be a carcinogen. Carbon
tetrachloride is carcinogenic in mice and rats producing liver tumors after
administration by various routes.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inhalation:
Leave area to breathe fresh air. Avoid further overexposure. If symptoms
persist, get medical attention immediately.
Eyes:
Flush immediately with running water for 15 minutes, lifting the upper and
lower lids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.
Ingestion:
Get medical attention immediately.
Skin:
Wash area of contact thoroughly with hand cleaner followed by soap and
water. If irritation, rash or other disorders develop, get medical
attention immediately.

Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Flash Point: 80 F
Method: SETA
Lower Flammability Limit: NOT ESTABLISHED
Upper Flammability Limit: NOT ESTABLISHED
Autoignition Temperature: NOT ESTABLISHED
Extinguishing Media:
Carbon dioxide, dry chemical, foam.
Fire and Explosion Hazards:
Never use welding or cutting torch on or near container (even empty).
Product, residue or vapor may ignite. See Section 7 for additional
precautions.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures:
During a fire, personnel at the scene are to prevent exposure to fumes
using accepted fire fighting techniques.
Fire Fighting Equipment: N/A
Other Precautions:
Hydrogen chloride, phosgene can form.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Release Response Overview:
Remove sources of ignition immediately. Ventilate to reduce the airborne
contaminant concentration below the exposure limit in Section 2 of the
MSDS. Absorb spill in sand, earth or other suitable material. Transfer to
DOT approved container for disposal.

Section 7 - Handling and Storage
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Handling and Storage Precautions:
Store in closed container below 80F. Keep product and vapor away from heat,
sparks and flame. Do not store in direct sunlight. Prevent inhalation of
vapor, ingestion, and contact with skin and eyes. Keep container closed
when not in use. Vapor may migrate to sources of ignition. Do not smoke,
weld, generate sparks, or use flame near container. Change soiled
workclothes frequently. Clean hands thoroughly after handling. Precautions
also apply to emptied containers. To prevent generation of static
discharges, use bonding/grounding connection when pouring liquid.
Extinguish all ignition sources including pilot lights, non-explosion proof
motors and electrical equipment until vapors dissipate.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Section 8 - Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Respiratory:
Wear appropriate, properly fitted NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator when the
airborne contaminant level(s) exceed the exposure limits indicated on the
MSDS. Follow respirator manufacturer's directions for respirator use.
Skin:
Protect hands with impervious rubber gloves and wear rubber apron and
overshoes. Prevent contact with skin.
Eyes:
Chemical splash goggles.
Face:
Face shield is recommended.
Engineering:
Use local exhaust when the general ventilation is not sufficient to keep
the airborne contaminant concentration below the exposure limit in Section
2 of the MSDS.
