Emergency Overview:                 WARNING! Flammable. Irritant. 
 
 
Primary Routes of Exposure:         Eyes. Skin. Inhalation. Ingestion. 
Potential Health Effects: 
 
   Eye Contact:                     Can cause moderate irritation, burning sensation, tearing, redness, and swelling. 
                                    Overexposure may cause lacrimation, conjunctivitis, corneal damage and 
                                    permanent injury. 
   Skin Contact:                    Can cause skin irritation; itching, redness, rashes, hives, burning, and swelling. 
   Inhalation:                      Respiratory tract irritant. High concentration may cause dizziness, headache, and 
                                    anesthetic effects. 
   Ingestion:                       Causes irritation, a burning sensation of the mouth, throat and gastrointestinal 
                                    tract and abdominal pain. 
 
 
Chronic Health Effects:             Prolonged skin contact may lead to burning associated with severe reddening, 
                                    swelling, and possible tissue destruction 
Signs/Symptoms:                Overexposure can cause headaches, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting.

Aggravation of Pre-Existing    Individuals with pre-existing skin disorders, asthma, allergies or known 
Conditions:                    sensitization may be more susceptible to the effects of this product. 
                                                                                                        To Top of page 
 
 
SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES 
 
Eye Contact:                   Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 to 20 minutes. Ensure 
                               adequate flushing of the eyes by separating the eyelids with fingers. Get 
                               immediate medical attention. 
Skin Contact:                  Immediately wash skin with plenty of soap and water for 15 to 20 minutes, while 
                               removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention if irritation 
                               develops or persists. 
Inhalation:                    If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration or give 
                               oxygen by trained personnel. Seek immediate medical attention. 
Ingestion:                     If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Call a physician or poison control center 
                               immediately. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. 
Other First Aid:               Due to possible aspiration into the lungs, DO NOT induce vomiting if ingested. 
                               Provide a glass of water to dilute the material in the stomach. If vomiting occurs 
                               naturally, have the person lean forward to reduce the risk of aspiration. 
                                                                                                        To Top of page 
 
 
SECTION 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES 
 
Flammable Properties :         Flammable. 
                               Class II, Combustible liquid. 
Auto Ignition Temp :           Not determined. 
Flash Point:                   102掳F (38.8掳C) 
Flash Point Method:            Estimated. 
Lower Explosive Limit (LEL)    0.5% 
Upper Explosive Limit (UEL)    6.0% 
Extinguishing Media:           Use carbon dioxide (CO2) or dry chemical when fighting fires involving this 
                               material. 
Protective Equipment:          As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, 
                               MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent) and full protective gear. 
Fire Fighting Instructions:    Evacuate area of unprotected personnel. Use cold water spray to cool fire 
                               exposed containers to minimize risk of rupture. Do not enter confined fire space 
                               without full protective gear. If possible, contain fire run-off water. 
                                                                                                        To Top of page 
 
 
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES 
 
Personal Precautions:          Evacuate area and keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering 
                               the spill area. 
Spill Cleanup Measures:        Absorb spill with inert material (e,g., dry sand or earth), then place in a chemical 
                               waste container. Provide ventilation. Collect spill with a non-sparking tool. Place 
                               into a suitable container for disposal. Clean up spills immediately observing 
                               precautions in the protective equipment section. After removal, flush spill area 
                               with soap and water to remove trace residue. 
                               Flammable, eliminate ignition sources. Vapors can form an ignitable mixture with 
                               air. Vapors can flow along surfaces to distant ignition sources and flash back. 
                               Ventilate area. Use proper personal protective equipment as listed in section 8. 
Environmental Precautions:     Avoid runoff into storm sewers, ditches, and waterways. 
Other Precautions:             Pump or shovel to storage/salvage vessels. 
                                                                                                        To Top of page 
 
 
 
SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE 
 
Handling:                      Use with adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing vapor, aerosol or mist. Material 
                               will accumulate static charges which may cause an electrical spark (ignition 
                               source). Use proper grounding procedures. Do not reuse containers without 
                               proper cleaning or reconditioning. 
Storage:                       Store in a cool, dry, well ventilated area away from sources of heat, combustible 
                               materials, direct sunlight, and incompatible substances. Keep container tightly 
                               closed when not in use. 
Hygiene Practices:             Wash thoroughly after handling. 
Special Handling Procedures:   Hazardous liquid or vapor residue may remain in emptied container. Do not 
                               reuse, heat, burn, pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, expose to 
                               sparks, flame, or ignition sources of empty containers without proper commercial 
                               cleaning or reconditioning. 
                                                                                                        To Top of page 
SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION 
 
Engineering Controls:          Use appropriate engineering control such as process enclosures, local exhaust 
                               ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels below 
                               recommended exposure limits. Good general ventilation should be sufficient to 
                               control airborne levels. Where such systems are not effective wear suitable 
                               personal protective equipment, which performs satisfactorily and meets OSHA or 
                               other recognized standards. Consult with local procedures for selection, training, 
                               inspection and maintenance of the personal protective equipment. 
Skin Protection Description:   Wear appropriate protective gloves and other protective apparel to prevent skin 
                               contact. Consult manufacturer's data for permeability data. 
Eye/Face Protection:           Wear appropriate protective glasses or splash goggles as described by 29 CFR 
                               1910.133, OSHA eye and face protection regulation, or the European standard 
                               EN 166. 
Respiratory Protection:        A NIOSH approved air-purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or 
                               canister may be permissible under certain circumstances where airborne 
                               concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits. Protection provided by 
                               air purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator 
                               if there is any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not 
                               known, or any other circumstances where air purifying respirators may not 
                               provide adequate protection. 
Other Protective:              Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash 
                               and a deluge shower safety station.
