SECTION 3: HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Flammable
Eye irritant
Contact will dry and defat the skin
Vapors harmful
Harmful if swallowed
Repeated exposure may lead to respiratory sensitization
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
Eyes: Contact with product or high vapor levels will cause irritation
Skin: Liquid contact will dry and defat the skin. Prolonged or repeated contact may cause irritation and sensitization.
Inhalation: Overexposure to vapors in poorly ventilated areas will cause irritation of the nose, throat and respiratory tract and may cause dizziness, headaches, nausea or unconsciousness. Repeated exposure may lead to respiratory sensitization.
Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed
Chronic: Long-term overexposure to solvents cause liver and kidney damage. N-Hexane has been demonstrated to cause peripheral nerve damage in overexposed workers. Symptoms include loss of feeling and weakness in the hands and feet and loss of manual dexterity.
REGULATED CARCINOGEN STATUS:
This product does not contain regulated levels of NTP, IARC, ACGIH or OSHA listed carcinogens.
Existing Health Conditions Affected by Exposure: No known effects on other illnesses.
SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES
If in eye: Flush immediately with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Call a physician.
If on skin: Wash affected area with soap and water. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.
If vapors inhaled: Remove from exposure. Restore breathing if necessary. Keep warm and quiet. Call a physician.
If ingested: If person can swallow, give one glass of water or milk. Do not induce vomiting. Get immediate medical attention. Never give

anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
SECTION 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point/Method: Less than 0 degrees F TCC, Less than -18 degrees C
Upper Explosive Limit/Lower Explosive Limit: Not established
Autoignition Temperature: Not established
Appropriate Extinguishers: Use water spray, foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Persons exposed to products of combustion should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective equipment.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: There is the possibility of pressure buildup in closed containers when heated. Water spray may be used to cool containers.
Solvent vapors are heavier than air any may travel along the ground or be moved by ventilation and ignited by heat, pilot lights, other flames and ignition sources at locations distant from the material handling point. Never use welding or cutting torch on or near drum (even empty) because product (even just residue) can ignite explosively.
Hazardous Combustion Product: Incomplete combustion can yield low molecular weight hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide.
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Spill or Leak Procedures: Remove all sources of ignition. Ventilate area. Avoid breathing vapors. Dike and contain spill with inert absorbent and transfer to container for disposal. Use non-sparking tools. Keep spill out of sewers.
SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING INFORMATION: Keep away from sparks and flame. Avoid breathing vapors. Use only with adequate ventilation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep container closed. Emptied container retains vapor and product residue. Observe all labeled precautions until container is cleaned. DO NOT CUT OR WELD ON OR NEAR THIS CONTAINER.

STORAGE INFORMATION: Consult the Technical Data Sheet for specific storage instructions.
SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Eye Protection: Wear safety glasses to reduce the potential for eye contact; chemical safety goggles are appropriate if splashing is likely. Have eye washes available where eye contact can occur.
Skin Protection: Prevent contact by using rubber gloves and appropriate protective clothing. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.
Respiratory Protection: Use NIOSH approved supplied air respirator in conditions warrant.
Ventilation: Local exhaust ventilation preferred. Provide ventilation to control contaminant levels below airborne exposure limits.
