3. HAZARDOUS IDENTIFICATION
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will Not Occur
ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: Inhalation, Skin, Eyes and Ingestion.
IMMEDIATE EFFECTS:
INHALATION: Causes irritation to respiratory tract. Causes stupor (central nervous system depression).
SKIN CONTACT: Repeated or prolonged contact can cause drying and irritation of the skin.
EYE CONTACT: Liquid and vapors are irritating to eyes. Contact with vapors can cause severe irritation.
INGESTION: Ingestion is not an anticipated route of exposure for this material in industrial use. Can cause
tissue damage.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE:
Significant exposure to these chemicals may adversely affect people with chronic disease of the respiratory system,
skin and/or eyes.
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
GENERAL ADVICE: Consult Physician immediately.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
PRECAUTIONS FOR PERSONNEL: Wear protective clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation. Use self-contained
breathing apparatus if required.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS: Avoid discharge to drains, sewers and natural water supply.
PROCESS FOR CLEANING: For small spills, absorb with inert material then place in a chemical waste
container. Remove sources of ignition. Scoop material with non-sparking
tools.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING: Ventilate work area sufficiently. Keep containers closed. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing.
Wash hands thoroughly after handling and before eating or drinking.

ADDITIONAL ADVICE: Use personal protective equipment, i.e., suitable work clothing, eye goggles and
protective gloves (butyl rubber). Use adequate ventilation to maintain airborne
concentrations to levels that are below recommended exposure limits. A NIOSH/MSHA
approved air purifying respirator, equipped with organic vapor cartridge, may be used if
airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits.
