EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Extremely flammable.
Severe eye irritant.
Causes skin irritation. May cause allergic skin reaction.
804783PM Page 2 of 6

MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET
__________________________________________________________________________________________
Moderate respiratory tract irritant.
Harmful if swallowed.
HMIS RATING: HEALTH -- 3 FLAMMABILITY -- 3 REACTIVITY -- 0
See SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION for personal protective equipment
recommendations.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS BY ROUTE OF ENTRY
EYE: Can cause severe irritation. Eye contact may result in corneal injury. Symptoms may include discomfort or
pain, excessive blinking and tear production, with marked redness and swelling of the conjunctiva. Temporary
vision impairment (cloudy or blurred vision) is possible.
SKIN: Can cause moderate skin irritation, defatting, and dermatitis. Not likely to cause permanent damage. May
cause sensitization.
Component(s) may be absorbed through intact skin, but it is unlikely that harmful effects will occur unless contact is
prolonged, repeated, and extensive.
INHALATION: Can cause moderate respiratory irritation.
Inhalation of vapors may cause loss of feeling and weakness in the hands and feet and loss of manual dexterity.
Inhalation of high concentrations may result in central nervous system (CNS) effects such as dizziness, weakness,
fatigue, nausea, headache, and lack of coordination.
INGESTION: Ingestion is not an anticipated route of exposure. Harmful if swallowed. Severely irritating to mouth,
throat, and stomach.
LONG-TERM (CHRONIC) HEALTH EFFECTS
REPRODUCTIVE: Contains a substance that is a possible reproductive hazard based on animal
studies at doses that could be encountered in the workplace.
TARGET ORGAN(S): Central nervous system Peripheral nervous system Reproductive system Liver
Skin
REGULATED CARCINOGEN STATUS:
Unless noted below, this product does not contain regulated levels of NTP, IARC, ACGIH, or OSHA listed
carcinogens.
EXISTING HEALTH CONDITIONS AFFECTED BY EXPOSURE: Liver disease; Skin disease including eczema
and sensitization
SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES
IF IN EYES: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 20 minutes retracting eyelids often. Tilt the
head to prevent chemical from transferring to the uncontaminated eye. Get immediate medical attention and monitor
the eye daily as advised by your physician.
IF ON SKIN: Wash with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and launder. Get medical attention if
irritation develops or persists.
IF VAPORS INHALED: Remove to fresh air. Restore breathing, if necessary. Call a physician if symptoms
persist.
IF SWALLOWED: Severely irritating. Do not induce vomiting. Seek medical attention immediately. Drink 2
glasses of water or milk to dilute. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Induced vomiting may
lead to aspiration of the material into the lungs potentially causing chemical pneumonitis that may be fatal.

LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (% in air): Not established
UPPER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (% in air): Not established
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Use water spray, foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Vapors are heavier than air and can travel to a source of ignition
and flash back.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS: Persons exposed to products of combustion should wear self-
contained breathing apparatus and full protective equipment.
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Carbon dioxide, Carbon monoxide Nitrogen containing gases
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
SPECIAL PROTECTION: Exposure to the spilled material may be severely irritating or toxic. Follow
personal protective equipment recommendations found in Section 8 of this
MSDS. Personal protective equipment needs must be evaluated based on
information provided on this sheet and the special circumstances created by
the spill including; the material spilled, the quantity of the spill, and the area
in which the spill occurred. Never exceed any occupational exposure limits.
Evaporation of volatile substances can lead to the displacement of air
creating an environment that can cause asphyxiation.
CLEAN-UP: Dike if necessary, contain spill with inert absorbent and transfer to containers
for disposal. Keep spilled product out of sewers, watersheds, or water
systems.
Shut off ignition sources; including electrical equipment and flames. Do not
allow smoking in the area.
Transport Emergency Phone Number (CHEMTREC): 1-800-424-9300
SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling: Toxic or severely irritating material. Avoid contacting and avoid breathing the material. Use
only in a well ventilated area.
Keep away from heat, sparks and flame.
Wash thoroughly after handling.
Keep container closed.
Emptied container retains vapor and product residue.
Observe all labeled precautions until container is cleaned.
Drums of this material should be grounded when pouring.
DO NOT CUT OR WELD ON OR NEAR THIS CONTAINER.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, ventilated location. Keep away from heat, sparks, flame and other
sources of ignition. Keep container closed.
Consult the Technical Data Sheet for specific storage instructions.
SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
EYE PROTECTION: Wear safety glasses with side shields when handling this product.
Wear additional eye protection such as chemical splash goggles
and/or face shield when the possibility exists for eye contact with
splashing or spraying liquid, or airborne material. Have an eye wash
station available.
SKIN PROTECTION: Avoid skin contact by wearing chemically resistant gloves and long
sleeved shirt. An apron may be appropriate if splashing can occur.

Skin absorption may potentially contribute to the overall exposure to
this material. Appropriate measures should be taken to prevent
absorption so that the TLV is not invalidated.
GLOVES: Butyl rubber
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Respiratory protection may be required to avoid overexposure when
handling this product. Use a respirator if general room ventilation is
not available or sufficient to eliminate symptoms. NIOSH approved
air purifying respirator with organic vapor cartridge.
Respirators should be selected by and used following requirements
found in OSHA's respirator standard (29 CFR 1910.134).
VENTILATION: Use local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to
minimize exposures.
