| SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION |
|=========================================================================|
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: COMBUSTIBLE. Harmful if swallowed. Causes skin and
eye irritation. May cause allergic skin reaction. Inhalation of vapors
may cause irritation, leading to headache and dizziness. Contents may
develop pressure on prolonged exposure to heat.
ACUTE EFFECTS - EYE CONTACT: Moderately irritating to the eyes. May cause
swelling, tearing, and redness.
ACUTE EFFECTS - SKIN CONTACT: Frequent or prolonged contact may irritate
the skin and cause a skin rash (dermatitis). Repeated or prolonged contact
may cause sensitization.
ACUTE EFFECTS - INHALATION: Liquid aspirated into lungs may cause serious
injury or death. High vapor concentrations are irritating to the eyes,
nose, throat and lungs. Prolonged inhalation may cause central nervous
system depression with headache, nausea, and dizziness leading to confusion
and unconsciousness.
ACUTE EFFECTS - INGESTION: May cause nausea and vomiting.
CHRONIC OVEREXPOSURE EFFECTS: *Preexisting pulmonary and dermatological
disorders may be aggravated by exposure to hazardous components.
OTHER INFORMATION: Not Applicable.
PRIMARY ROUTE(S) OF ENTRY: SKIN CONTACT, INHALATION, EYE CONTACT,

|=========================================================================|
| SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES |
|=========================================================================|
EYE CONTACT: Immediately flush with plenty of water. After initial
flushing, remove any contact lenses and continue flushing for at least 15
minutes. Have eyes immediately examined and tested by medical personnel.
SKIN CONTACT: Immediately wash skin with soap and plenty of water. Remove
contaminated clothing. Get medical attention if symptoms occur. Wash
clothing before reuse.
INHALATION: If symptoms occur, remove to fresh air. Medical personnel may
administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Seek medical attention if
symptoms persist.
INGESTION: Swallowing less than an ounce will not cause significant harm.
For larger amounts, do not induce vomiting, but give one or two glasses of
water to drink and get medical attention.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN: Not Applicable.
|=========================================================================|
| SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES |
|=========================================================================|
FLASH POINT: 108 F LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT: 1 %
(SETAFLASH CLOSED CUP) UPPER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT: 8 %
AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE: No data
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: ALCOHOL FOAM, CO2, DRY CHEMICAL, FOAM, WATER FOG
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Closed containers may rupture or
explode (due to pressure build-up) when exposed to extreme heat.
Irritating and/or toxic gases or fumes may be generated by thermal
decomposition or combustion. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel
along the ground to be ignited at locations distant from the source;
flashback of flame may occur.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES: Use NIOSH-approved self-contained
breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. Use water to cool
exposed containers. Water stream directed into fire may cause frothing
with subsequent spread of flame.
|=========================================================================|
| SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES |
|=========================================================================|
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Remove or
protect from sources of ignition such as flames, pilot lights, and heaters.
Wear appropriate protective equipment during cleanup. Absorb with inert
material, such as clay. Sweep or shovel into loosely-covered waste
container and remove to appropriate waste area. Dispose of in accordance
with federal, state, and local regulations.
|=========================================================================|
| SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE |
|=========================================================================|
HANDLING: Wash thoroughly after handling. Avoid contact with skin and
eyes. FOR INDUSTRIAL USE ONLY.
STORAGE: Store in a cool place in original container and protect from
sunlight. Refrigeration recommended to extend to product life. Keep
containers closed when not in use. KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.

|=========================================================================|
| SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION |
|=========================================================================|
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: General ventilation usually adequate. Supplemental
ventilation should be approved for use with combustible vapors.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: None normally required under general ventilation.
If TLV/PEL is exceeded, if use is performed in a poorly-ventilated space,
or if inhalation effects occur, use NIOSH-approved vapor cartridge
respirator in accordance with applicable health and safety regulations and
manufacturer's recommendations.
SKIN PROTECTION: Clean clothing to cover skin. Butyl rubber gloves. PVA
gloves. Supported PVA gloves.
EYE PROTECTION: Safety glasses. Chemical splash goggles.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Accessible eye wash and safety shower.
HYGIENIC PRACTICES: Follow good general industrial safety practices during
use. Do not smoke or eat during use. Follow all MSDS/label precautions
even after container is emptied.
