Flammable Limits in Air, % by Volume Lower = Not Determined Upper = Not Determined
Extinguishing Media Apply alcohol-type or all-purpose-type foam by manufacturer's
recommended techniques for large fires. Use carbon dioxide or dry
chemical media for small fires.
Fire-Fighting Equipment Use water spray to cool-fire exposed containers and structures. Use
self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing.
Special Precautions Vapors form from this product and may travel or be moved by air
currents and ignited by pilot lights, other flames, sparks, heaters,
electrical equipment, static discharges or other ignition sources at
locations distant from product handling point. Vapors may settle in low
or confined areas or travel a long distance to an ignition source and flash
back explosively. This product may produce a floating fire hazard.
Section 05 Reactivity Data
Stability: Stable
Conditions to Avoid: Excessively high temperatures.
Hazardous Polymerization: Will Not Occur
Conditions to Avoid: None
Incompatibility: Strong oxidizing agents (i.e. - concentrated perchloric and nitric acids,
etc.)
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Burning will produce carbon monoxide and/or carbon dioxide plus small
amounts of nitrogen oxides and halogen acid.
Section 06 Spill, Leak and Disposal Procedures
Action to take for Spills/Leaks: Extinguish and do not turn on any ignition source until the area is
determined to be free from explosion or fire hazard. Wear suitable
protective equipment. Avoid contact with liquid and vapors. Collect
large spills for disposal. Flush small spills with water.
Disposal Method: Burn in an EPA licensed incinerator or dispose through a licensed waste
disposal service with incineration or fuel blending/fuel burning capability.
Follow all federal, state, and local regulations.

Section 07 Health Hazard Data
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Overexposure:
Skin contact may aggravate an existing dermatitis. Inhalation of material may aggravate asthma and
inflammatory or fibrotic pulmonary disease.
Eye: Causes severe irritation, experienced as discomfort or pain, excess
blinking and tear production, marked excess redness and swelling of the
conjunctiva and chemical burns of the cornea. Corneal injury may be
severe, extensive, and if not treated promptly, could result in permanent
impairment of vision. Rosin fumes during solder can be an irritant.
Molten rosin can cause eye burns.
Skin Contact: Brief contact may cause slight irritation with itching and local redness.
Prolonged contact causes chemical burns with local discomfort or pain,
severe excess redness and swelling, tissue destruction, fissures, and
ulceration and possibly bleeding into the inflamed area.
Ingestion: May cause irritation of the mouth, throat, esophagus, and stomach, with
pain or discomfort in the mouth, throat, chest and abdomen, nausea,
vomiting, diarrhea, thirst, dizziness, drowsiness, and weakness.
Headache may occur. Loss of consciousness may occur. Aspiration
into the lungs may occur during ingestion or vomiting resulting in lung
injury.
Inhalation: Vapor causes irritation of the respiratory tract with coughing and chest
discomfort. High concentrations may cause central nervous system
depression, with weakness, drowsiness and loss of consciousness.
Exposure to rosin smoke may cause dizziness and headache.
Effect of Repeated Overexposure:
Drying and cracking of the skin may result from prolonged exposure to this material because of its defatting
action.
Other Health Hazards:
Skin contact may cause sensitization and an allergic skin reaction in a small proportion of individuals.
Significant laboratory data with possible relevance to human health hazard evaluation. In lifetime studies of
administration of isobutanol by stomach tube or by injection under the skin, rats experienced an increased
incidence of liver injury and tumors. The relevance of these findings to humans is unknown. Contains one or
more amines which may react with nitrites or other nitrosating agents to form nitrosamines. Some
nitrosamines have been shown to be carcinogenic in laboratory animals.

Section 08 First Aid Procedures
Eyes: Flush with water for 15 minutes. Get medical attention without delay
preferably from an ophthalmologist.
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin with soap and water. Obtain
medical attention if contact has been widespread and prolonged, or if
irritation persists. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion: If patient is fully conscious, give two glasses of milk or water. Do not
induce vomiting. Obtain medical attention without delay.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Give artificial respiration if not breathing. If
breathing is difficult, oxygen may be given by qualified personnel.
Obtain medical attention.
Notes to Physician: There is no specific antidote. Treatment of overexposure should be
direct at the control of symptoms and the clinical condition of the patient.
Due to the irritation nature of the material, any aspiration during vomiting
could result in severe lung injury. Therefore, emesis should not be
induced mechanically or pharmacologically. However, the acute peroral
system toxicity of the material indicates that evacuation of the stomach
contents should be undertaken at the earliest possible time by means
carrying the least likelihood for aspiration (e.g., the use of gastric lavage
with endotracheal infubation).
Section 09 Special Handling Information
Ventilation: This material should be used in closed well-ventilated equipment (i.e.
hood or automated wave solder machine, etc.) Special local ventilation
should be used where vapors can escape to the workplace air.
Respiratory Protection: Where exposures exceed PEL/TLV's, use NIOSH/MSHA approved
respirators (use any chemical cartridge respirator with organic vapor
cartridge(s) up to 500 ppm; use any chemical cartridge (s) respirator with
a full face piece and organic vapor cartridge (s) between 500-1000 ppm;
use self-contained breathing apparatus for higher concentrations and for
fire fighting).
Eye Protection: Chemical monogoggles.
Skin Protection: Neoprene or nitrile.
Other Protective Equipment: Neoprene apron/clothing. Eye wash, safety shower.

Section 10 Special Precautions & Additional Information
Precautions to be Taken in Handling and Storing:
CAUTION! Flammable liquid and vapor. Causes eye and skin burns. Harmful if inhaled or swallowed. May
cause dizziness and drowsiness. May cause allergic skin reaction. Aspiration may cause lung damage.
NOTE: Do not induce vomiting. Do not add nitires or other nitrosating agents. A nitrosamine, which may
cause cancer, may be formed. Keep away from heat, speaks, and flame. Do not get in eyes, on skin, on
clothing. Avoid breathing vapors and mists. Keep container closed. Use only with adequate ventilation.
Wash thoroughly after handling.
Other Precautions:
Empty and partially empty containers contain vapors that can be ignited with explosive force. Do not flame
cut, burn or weld on or in the near vicinity of containers. WARNING: Many hot organic chemical vapors or
mists are susceptible to sudden spontaneous combustion when mixed with air. Ignition may occur at
temperatures below those published in the literature as "autoignition" or "ignition" temperatures. Ignition
temperatures decrease with increasing vapor volume and vapor/air contact time, and are influenced by
pressure changes. Ignition of organic chemical vapors may occur at typical elevated-temperature process
conditions, especially in processes operating under vacuum if subjected to sudden ingress of air, or outside
process equipment operating under elevated pressure if sudden escape of vapors or mists to the atmosphere
occurs. Any proposed use of this product in elevated-temperature processes should be thoroughly evaluated
to assure that safe operating conditions are established and maintained.
