ignited by heat, sparks, flame, static electricity and all other sources of ignition.
V. HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION
SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE FOR EACH POTENTIAL ROUTE OF
EXPOSURE
Inhaled: While this product has a low degree of toxicity, breathing high
concentrations of vapors or mists may cause irritation of the nose and throat, and
signs of nervous system depression including dizziness, weakness, fatigue,
nausea, headache and possible unconsciousness, and even death.
Contact with skin or eyes: May cause severe skin and eye irritation.
Absorbed through skin: Skin contact may be harmful. Prolonged skin contact
may cause redness, burning, drying and cracking.

HEALTH EFFECTS OR RISKS FROM EXPOSURE
Acute: Irritation of the skin, eye, and the digestive tract.
Chronic: Prolonged, or repeated exposure to vapors or mists, may cause kidney
and liver damage.
FIRST AID: EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with water for 15 minutes. If irritation
persists seek medical attention.
Skin Contact: Flush affected areas with large amounts of water. If irritation
persists seek medical attention
Inhaled: Move victim away from source of exposure and into fresh air. If the
victim is not breathing, artificial respiration should be administered. Seek medical
attention.
Swallowed: ASPIRATION HAZARD. Do not induce vomiting or give anything by
mouth because this material can enter lungs and cause severe lung damage. If
victim is drowsy or unconscious, place on the left side with the head down. If
possible, do not leave victim unattended. Seek medical attention.
COMMENTS: This substance has not been identified as a carcinogen or
probable carcinogen by NTP, IARC, USEPA, or OSHA. Reports have associated
repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent
brain and nervous system damage (sometimes referred to as solvent or painters '
syndrome). Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling this
product may be harmful or fatal.
MEDICAL CONDITION AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Respiratory symptoms
associated with pre-existing lung disorders (asthma like conditions), may be
aggravated by exposure to this material.
VI. REACTIVITY DATA

VII. SPILL, LEAK, AND DISPOSAL PROCEDURES
Spill response procedures: Keep out of drains, sewers or waterways. Use sand
or other inert material to dam and contain spill. Do not flush area with water.
Notify appropriate state/local agencies.
If spill in excess of EPA Reportable quantity is made into the environment,
immediately notify the National Response Center (Phone NO: 800-424-8802).

VIII. SPECIAL HANDLING INFORMATION
Ventilation and engineering controls: If current ventilation practices are not
adequate to maintain airborne concentrations below established exposure limits,
additional ventilation or exhaust systems may be required. Where explosive
mixtures may be present, electrical systems safe for such locations may be used.
Respiratory Protection: The use of respiratory protection is advised when
concentrations exceed the established exposure limits. Depending on the
airborne concentration, use a respirator or gas mask with appropriate cartridges
and canisters (NIOSH Approved).
Eye Protection: Approved eye protection to safeguard against potential eye
contact, irritation or injury is recommended.
Gloves: The use of nitrile gloves is advised to prevent skin contact and possible
irritation.
Other clothing and equipment: Eye wash and quick drench shower facilities
should be available in the work area. Thoroughly clean shoes and wash
contaminated clothing before reuse.
OTHER HANDLING AND STORAGE REQUIREMENTS:
Keep containers tightly closed. Keep containers cool, dry and away from sources
of ignition. Use and store this product with adequate ventilation. Avoid inhalation
of vapors and personal contact with the product. Use good personal hygiene
practice. "Empty" containers retain residue (liquid and/or vapor) and can be
dangerous. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind or expose such
containers to heat, flame, sparks or other sources of ignition; they may explode
and cause injury or death. "Empty" drums should be completely drained, properly
bunged and promptly shipped to the supplier or a drum reconditioner. All other
containers should be disposed of in an environmentally safe manner and in
accordance with governmental regulations.
