SECTION 3 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS:
EYE CONTACT: Slightly irritating but does not injure eye tissue.
SKIN CONTACT: Low order of toxicity
Frequent or prolonged contact may irritate and cause dermatitis.
Skin contact may aggravate an existing dermatitis condition.
INHALATION: High vapor/aerosol concentrations are irritating to the eyes and the respiratory tract. May cause headaches, dizziness,
anesthesia, drowsiness, unconsciousness, and other central nervous system effects, including death.
INGESTION: Small amounts of this product aspirated into the respiratory system during ingestion or vomiting may cause mild to severe
pulmonary injury, possibly progressing to death.
Minimal toxicity.
SECTION 4 FIRST AID MEASURES
EYE CONTACT: Flush eyes with large amounts of water until irritation subsides. If irritation persists, get medical attention.
SKIN CONTACT: Flush with large amounts of water; use soap of available. Remove grossly contaminated clothing, including
Shoes, and launder before reuse.
INHALATION: Using proper respiratory protection, immediately remove the affected victim from exposure. Administer artificial respiration if
breathing is stopped. Keep at rest. Get prompt medical attention.
INGESTION: If swallowed. DO NOT induce vomiting. Keep at rest. Get prompt medical attention.
SECTION 5 FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point 177掳F (Closed Cup)
Flammable Limits: LEL: 0.5 UEL: 4.9
Auto ignition Temperature 500掳F. NOTE: Approximate
GENERAL HAZARD
Combustible liquid can form combustible mixtures at temperatures at or above the flashpoint. Static Discharge, material
can accumulated static charges, which can cause an incendiary electrical discharge. 鈥淓mpty鈥? containers retain product residue
(liquid and/or vapor) and can be dangerous. DO NOT Pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose such containers to heat, flame, sparks,
static electricity, or other sources of ignition; THEY MAY EXPLODE AND CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH. Empty Drums should be completely drained,
properly bunged, and promptly returned to a drum reconditioner, or properly disposed of.
FIRE FIGHTING
Use water spray to cool fire exposed surfaces and to protect personnel. Isolate 鈥渇uel鈥? supply from fire. Use foam, dry chemical or
water spray to extinguish fire. Avoid spraying water directly into storage container due to danger of boilover. This liquid is volatile
and gives off invisible vapors. Either the liquid or the vapor may settle in low areas or travel some distance along the ground or surface to inanition
sources where they may ignite or explode.
DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS UNDER FIRE CONDITIONS
No Unusual
SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
LAND FILL
Eliminate sources of ignition. Prevent additional discharge of material, if possible to do so without hazard. For small spills implement cleanup procedures;
for large spills implement cleanup procedures and, if in public area, keep public away and advise authorities. Also, if this product is subject to CERCLA
reporting (See Section 15 REGULATORY INFORMATION) notify the National Response Center. Prevent liquid from entering sewers, watercourses, or
low areas. Contain spilled liquid with sand or earth. Do not use combustible materials such as sawdust.
Recover by pumping (use an explosion proof or hand pump) or with a suitable absorbent.
Consult an expert on disposal of recovered material and ensure conformity to local disposal regulations.
WATER SPILL
Eliminate sources of ignition. Warn occupants and shipping in surrounding and downward areas of fire and explosion hazard and request all to stay clear.
Remove from surface by skimming or with suitable adsorbents. If allowed by local authorities and environmental agencies, skinning and/or suitable
dispersants may be used in non-confined waters. Consult an expert on disposal of recovered material and ensure conformity to local disposal regulations.
SECTION 7 STORAGE AND HANDLING
ELECTROSTATIC ACCUMULATION HAZARD:
Yes, use proper bonding and/or grounding procedure.
Additional information regarding safe handling of products with static accumulation potential can be ordered by contacting the American petroleum
Institute (API) for API Recommended Practice 2003, entitled 鈥淧rotection Against Ignitions Arising Out of Static, Lightning, and Stray Currents鈥?
(American petroleum Institute, 1220 L Street Northwest, Washington DC 20005), or the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) for NFPA 77
entitled 鈥淪tatic Electricity鈥? (National Fire Protection, 1 Batterymarch Park, PO Box 9101, Quincy, MA 02269-9101).

STORAGE AND HANDLING:
Keep container closed. Handle and open containers with care. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place away from incompatible materials. Materials will
accumulate static charges, which may cause an electrical spark (ignition source). Use proper bonding and/or grounding procedures. DO NOT pressurize,
cut, heat, or weld containers. Empty product containers may contain product residue. DO NOT Reuse empty containers without commercial cleaning or
reconditioning.

SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTR0L / PERSONAL PROTECTION
EXPOSURE CONTROLS
The use of local exhaust ventilation is recommended to control process emissions near the source. Laboratory samples should be handled in a lab hood.
Provide mechanical ventilation in confined spaces. See respiratory protection recommendations.
PERSONAL PROTECTION
For open systems where contact is likely, wear safety glasses with sided shield, long sleeves, and chemical resistant gloves.
Where contact may occur, wear safety glasses with shields.
Where concentrations in air may exceed the limits given in this Section and engineering, work practice or other means of exposure are not adequate,
NIOSH approved respirators may be necessary to prevent overexposure by inhalation.
WORKPLACE EXPOSURE GUIDELINES: TWA of 1200 mg/m3 (175ppm) based on total hydrocarbon.
