Fire and Explosion Hazard Data (Continued):
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Use of self-contained breathing apparatus with full face mask is
recommended for all chemical fires.
Unusual Fire or Explosion Hazards: Do not rely on ambient air for breathing air supply during
fires. Fire may result in release of toxic gases such as oxides of carbons, nitrogen and sulfur.
Reactivity Data:
Stability: Stable under ordinarily expected conditions.
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur.
Incompatibilities: Mineral acids such as sulfuric, nitric and hydrochloric.
Conditions to avoid: Acidification releases flammable gases.
Hazardous Combustion or Decomposition Products: Combustion of dry film may produce oxides
of carbon, nitrogen and sulfur. Thermal decomposition may release gases such as amines and
carbon disulfide.
Health Hazard Data:
Primary Routes of Entry: Inhalation, ingestion, skin contact.
Acute Exposure Effects:
Swallowing: May cause nausea and vomiting.
Skin Contact: Slightly irritating to skin.
Inhalation: Vapors may be irritating to nose, throat, and respiratory tract, producing symptoms of
nausea in poorly ventilated areas.
Eye Contact: Exposure is possibly irritating to the eyes.
Chronic Exposure Effects:
Target Organ Effect: Product contains < 1% Ethylene thiourea, which has been determined to be
a teratogen and oncogen in laboratory animals.
Carcinogenicity: Product contains < 1% Ethylene thiourea, which has been determined to be a
carcinogen in laboratory animals.
Delayed effects: N/E

First Aid:
Ingestion: If patient is fully conscious, dilute by drinking copious amounts of water. Obtain
immediate medical attention. Never give anything by mouth if patient is unconscious or
drowsy.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash exposed skin with soap and water. Obtain
medical attention.
Inhalation: Remove affected individual to fresh air and seek medical attention. If breathing is
labored, administer oxygen. If breathing has stopped, administer artificial respiration.
Eye Contact: Flush eyes with plenty of running water for at least 20 minutes while holding eyelids
apart. Obtain medical attention.
Handling and Storage:
Precautions: Keep out of reach of children. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.
Wash thoroughly after handling, and particularly before eating, drinking, or smoking. Do not
transfer to unmarked containers. Wear appropriate protective clothing when handling.
NOTICE: Containers of this material may be hazardous when emptied. Since emptied containers
retain product residues (vapor, liquid, and/or solid), all hazard precautions given in this data sheet
must be observed.
Accidental Release, Spill or Leak Procedures:
Spill Procedures: Evacuate all non-essential personnel. Personal Protective Equipment
appropriate to the nature of the spill must be worn. Ventilate spill area. Stop spill at source.
Prevent entry into sewers and waterways. Collect free liquid for disposal. Residual liquid may be
absorbed using inert material. Transfer contaminated absorbent, soil, etc. into containers for
disposal. The floor may be slippery. Use caution to avoid falls. Material is detrimental to the
environment. Spills may be reportable under CERCLA, SARA, or DOT criteria, depending on
quantities involved.
Disposal Methods: Hazardous waste: Dispose of liquid or solid materials in conformance with all
applicable Federal, State or Local regulations.
Personal Protective Equipment and Protection Information:
Respiratory Protection: None required if good ventilation is maintained. If airborne exposure limit
for any component is exceeded, wear self-contained breathing apparatus (Pressure Demand,
NIOSH/MSHA-approved or equivalent). OSHA regulations may also permit other respirators
under specified conditions. Consult your Industrial Hygienist for guidance. Implement
engineering or administrative controls to reduce exposure.
Ventilation: Provide sufficient mechanical (General and/or Local Exhaust) ventilation to control
mists or vapors and maintain exposure below TLV's.
Protective Gloves: Wear impervious or resistant gloves. Test gloves for permeability before
relying on them.

Personal Protective Equipment and Protection Information (Continued):
Eye Protection: Chemical splash goggles or a full-face shield are advised. NEVER wear contact
lenses when handling chemicals of any sort.
Other Protective Clothing or Equipment: Use chemical-resistant apron or other impervious
clothing if required to avoid contamination. A long sleeved shirt, long pants and hat are
recommended. Use impervious boots to avoid contamination of shoes. Never wear rings,
watchbands, or other items, which may entrap materials against the skin when handling
chemicals of any sort. Similarly, the availability of a safety shower and eye bath in the vicinity is
advised for all chemical-handling operations.
