SECTION II HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
___________________________________________________________________________
ACUTE
EYES
Based on presence of component 2, product is moderately to severely irritating to the eyes. Vapors can cause severe
eye irritation.
INHALATION
Vapors or mists pose limited inhalation hazards. Symptoms such as eye and throat irritation may be experienced.
Likewise, slight dizziness may result from this exposure. High level prolonged exposure may potentially lead to more
serious effects.
SKIN CONTACT
Based on the presence of component 1, brief contact with undiluted material may cause slight reddening. More
prolonged contact, as with, chemical saturated clothing, may cause moderate reddening, swelling, and possible damage
to the skin. Frequent contact may result in the absorption of potentially harmful amounts. Signs and symptoms of toxicity
are similar to those of ingestion.
INGESTION
Based on component 2, if swallowed has the potential of causing severe illness or death. Intoxication appears in stages.
The first is a feeling of drunkenness without smell of alcohol on the breath. Nausea, vomiting, and eye symptoms may
occur. Subsequently, rapid breathing, increased heart rate and decreased urination frequency may be experienced.
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
Early to moderate CNS depression may be evidenced by giddiness, headache, dizziness and nausea. In extreme cases,
unconsciousness and death may occur. Kidney damage may be evidenced by changes in urine output, urine appearance
or edema (swelling from fluid retention). Liver damage may be evidenced by loss of appetite, jaundice (yellowish skin
color) and sometimes pain in the upper abdomen on the right side.

SECTION IV FIRST AID MEASURES
___________________________________________________________________________
EYES
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while holding eyelids open. Get medical attention.
SKIN CONTACT
Remove contaminated clothing and wash off skin with soap and water. Wash contaminated clothes. If irritation develops,
contact a physician.
INHALATION
Due to high boiling point, inhalation is not normally a problem. Remove to fresh air.
INGESTION
If conscious, give two glasses of water and induce vomiting by giving 30cc (2 tablespoons) Syrup of Ipecac. If Ipecac is
unavailable induce vomiting by touching finger to back of victim's throat. Keep victim's head below hips while vomiting.
Take immediately to the hospital.

SECTION VIII EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
___________________________________________________________________________
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
Not typically required. If exposure exceeds permissible exposure limits wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
compliance with NIOSH/MSHA specifications. Comply with 29CFR 1910.134.
VENTILATION
General (mechanical) room ventilation is generally satisfactory. Special, local ventilation may be needed at points where
vapors can be expected to exceed exposure limits.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES
For the best protection wear butyl gloves. Wear additional protective garments were necessary.
EYE PROTECTION
Wear chemical goggles if there is likelihood of contact with eyes.
ADDITIONAL PROTECTIVE CLOTHING OR EQUIPMENT
Boots, aprons, or chemical suits should be used when necessary to prevent skin contact. Eye wash fountains and safety
showers should be available for emergency use.
