Section 3. Hazards Identification
Acute Effects Routes of EntryAbsorbed through skin. Dermal contact. Eye contact.
Inhalation.
Skin Hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant, permeator). Non-sensitizer for skin. Skin inflammation is characterized
by itching, scaling, reddening, or, occasionally, blistering. Medical Conditions Aggravated by Overexposure: Skin
Eyes Hazardous in case of eye contact (irritant). Inflammation of the eye is characterized by redness, watering, and
itching.
Inhalation Hazardous in case of inhalation (lung irritant). May cause respiratory tract irritation. Can cause central nervous
system depression. Symptoms and signs include headaches, dizziness, fatigue, muscular weakness, drowsiness and, in
extreme cases, loss of consciousness. Prolonged repeated exposure may cause chemical pneumontitis. Medical
Conditions Aggravated by Overexposure: Respiratory
Ingestion Unlikely in this form.
Chronic Effects The substance may be toxic to blood, kidneys, lungs, the reproductive system, liver, mucous
membranes, heart, skin, central nervous system (CNS), ears, eye, lens or cornea. Repeated or
prolonged exposure to the substance can produce target organs damage. Prolonged or repeated
contact may dry skin and cause irritation.
Additional information : See Toxicological Information (section 11)
Section 4. First Aid Measures
Eye Contact In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical
attention.
Skin Contact Wash affected area with soap or mild detergent and water. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient.
Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention if irritation develops.
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give
Inhalation
oxygen. Get medical attention.
Ingestion Aspiration hazard if swallowed- can enter lungs and cause damage. Do NOT induce vomiting unless
directed to do so by medical personnel. If vomiting occurs, keep head lower than hips to help prevent
aspiration. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately.

Explosion hazard Container explosion may occur under fire conditions or when heated.
Section 6. Accidental Release Measures
Spill Clean up Large spills are unlikely due to packaging.
Section 7. Handling and Storage
Handling Store and use away from heat, sparks, open flame, or any other ignition source. Avoid contact with eyes, skin
and clothing. Use only with adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing vapors or spray mists. Watch for
accumulation in low confined areas. Wash contaminated clothing before reusing.
Storage Store and use away from heat, sparks, open flame, or any other ignition source. Keep away from heat and direct
sunlight. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Do not store above 49掳C (120.2掳F). Do not puncture
or incinerate. Keep out of the reach of children.
Section 8. Exposure Controls, Personal Protection
Engineering Controls Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors
below their respective occupational exposure limits.
Personal Protection Protective Clothing (Pictograms)
Eyes Splash goggles.
Hands and Body Neoprene gloves. Nitrile gloves. Rubber glove
Respiratory Use with adequate ventilation. Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne
concentrations of vapors below their respective occupational exposure limits. Wear appropriate respirator when
ventilation is inadequate.
