Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:YES
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:EYE-PRACTICALLY NONIRRITATING.
SKIN-PROLONGED OR REPEATED CONTACT CAN CAUSE DEFATTING & DRYING,
RESULTING IN SKIN IRRITATION & DERMATITIS. INHALE-MILD IRRITATION
TO UPPER RESPIRATORY TRACT, CENTRAL NE RVOUS SYSTEM OR CHEMICAL
PNEUMONITIS. INGEST-IF SWALLOWED, RESULTING IN VOMITING OR
ASPIRATION PNEUMONITIS.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:THE RESULT OF ANIMAL BIOASSAYS SHOW THAT
PROLONGED DERMAL CONTACT PRODUCES A WEAK TO MODERATE CARCINOGENIC
ACTIVITY.
Effects of Overexposure:GIDDINESS, HEADACHE, DIZZINESS AND NAUSEA; IN
EXTREME CASES, UNCONCIOUSNESS AND DEATH MAY OCCUR. LOCAL NECROSIS
IS EVIDENCED BY DELAYED ONSET OF PAIN & TISSUE DAMAGE A FEW HOURS
FOLLOWING INJECTION. A SPIRATION PNEUMONITIS CAN SHOW AS COUGHING,
LABORED BREATHING AND CYANOSIS; IN SEVERE CASES DEATH MAY OCCUR.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PREEXISTING SKIN AND RESPIRATORY
DISORDERS MAY BE AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE TO THIS PRODUCT.
PREEXISTING SKIN OR LUNG ALLERGIES MAY INCREASE THE CHANCE OF
DEVELOPING INCREASED ALLERGY SYPMTOMS.

First Aid:EYE-FLUSH WITH WATER. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. SKIN-FLUSH WITH
WATER, REMOVE SOILED CLOTHES/SHOES. WASH WITH SOAP & WATER. GET
MEDICAL ATTENTION. INHALE-REMOVE TO FRESH AIR & PROVIDE OXYGEN IF
HARD TO B REATH. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. INGEST-DONOT INDUCE
VOMITING. IF VOMITING OCCURS SPONTANEOUSLY KEEP HEAD BELOW HIPS TO
PREVENT ASPIRATION OF LIQUID INTO LUNGS. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.

Extinguishing Media:USE WATER FOG, FOAM, DRY CHEMICAL OR CARBON
DIOXIDE. DO NOT USE A DIRECT STREAM OF WATER. PRODUCT WILL FLOAT &
REIGNITE.
Fire Fighting Procedures:CAUTION. COMBUSTIBLE. DO NOT ENTER CONFINED
FIRE SPACE WITHOUT FULL BANKER GEAR, INCLUDING A POSITIVE PRESSURE
NIOSH APPROVED SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:CONTAINERS EXPOSED TO INTENSE HEAT FROM
FIRES SHOULD BE COOLED WITH WATER TO PREVENT VAPOR PRESSURE BUILDUP
WHICH COULD RESULT IN CONTAINER RUPTURE.

Spill Release Procedures:CAUTION. COMBUSTIBLE. ***SMALL SPILL***TAKE UP
WITH AN ABSORBENT MATERIAL AND PLACE IN NON-LEAKING CONTAINERS FOR
PROPER DISPOSAL.

Handling and Storage Precautions:STORE IN A COOL, DRY, WELL VENTILATED
AREA AWAY FROM SOURCES OF IGNITION. ALL HANDLING EQUIPMENT MUST BE
GROUNDED TO PREVENT SPARKING.
Other Precautions:KEEP LIQUID AND VAPORS AWAY FROM HEAT, SPARKS AND
FLAME. SURFACES THAT ARE SUFFICIENTLY HOT MAY IGNITE EVEN LIQUID
PRODUCT IN THE ABSENCE OF SPARK/FLAME. DO NOT CUT, DRILL, GRIND,
WELD OR PERFORM SIMI LIAR OPERATIONS ON OR NEAR CONTAINERS.

Respiratory Protection:USE A NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED RESPIRATOR AS REQUIRED
TO PREVENT OVEREXPOSURE. IN ACCORD WITH 29 CFR 1910.134, USE EITHER
A FULL-FACE, ATMOSPHERE-SUPPLYING RESPIRATOR OR AN AIR-PURIFYING
RESPIRATOR FOR ORG ANIC VAPORS.
Ventilation:USE EXPLOSION-PROOF VENTILATION AS REQUIRED TO CONTROL
VAPOR CONCENTRATIONS.
Protective Gloves:WEAR CHEMICAL RESISTANT GLOVES.
Eye Protection:NO SPECIAL EYE PROTECTION USUALLY REQUIR
Other Protective Equipment:WEAR CHEMICAL RESISTANT CLOTHES AS REQUIRED
TO MINIMIZE SKIN CONTACT. SAFETY SHOWER AND EYE BATH.
Work Hygienic Practices:WASH AFTER HANDLING & BEFORE EATING, DRINKING,

NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: IF MORE THAN 2.0 ML/KG HAS BEEN INGESTED & VOMITING
HAS NOT OCCURRED, EMESIS SHOULD BE INDUCED WITH SUPERVISION. KEEP
VICTIM'S HEAD BELOW HIPS TO PREVENT ASPIRATION. IF SYMPTOMS SUC H
AS LOSS OF GAG REFLEX/CONVULSION/UNCONSCIOUSNESSS BEFORE EMESIS, DO
GASTRIC LAVAGE USING A CUFFED ENDOTRACHEAL TUBE.
