FIRE FIGHTING EQUIPMENT: Fire fighters should wear full protective equipment, including butyl rubber
boots, gloves, body suit and self-contained breathing apparatus.
SPECIAL PROCEDURES: Use water to cool containers exposed to a fire.
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen and ammonia.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS: Use proper personal protection (refer to Section 8). Shut off or remove all
sources of ignition. Use caution as spills of this product are very slippery.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS: Run off from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution.
Keep out of drains, municipal sewers, open bodies of water and water course.
CLEAN-UP METHODS: Safely stop source of spill. Clean up spills immediately. Restrict non-essential
personnel from the area. Wear protective clothing, goggles and respirator if ventilation is not adequate.
Dike spill area and soak up material with dry soil, sand or other absorbent. Place into chemical waste
container for disposal according to local, state or federal regulations at an approved chemical waste
reprocessing facility. Flush spill area with detergent and water. Do NOT flush into sewer or storm drain.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING: Use proper personal protection when handling (refer to Section 8). Use under well-
ventilated conditions. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid breathing vapors and mists.
Avoid prolonged or repeated contact. Do NOT ingest. Wash thoroughly after handling. Rinse container
before disposal.
SHELF LIFE: The recommended shelf life is two (2) years. It is recommended that products be retested
if stored for more than two (2) years. Under ideal storage conditions, the shelf life is almost indefinite.
STORAGE TEMPERATURE: The recommended storage temperature is above 32oF, preferably at room
temperature (70oF).
GENERAL: Store closed containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials.
Store in an area designated for flammable liquids. This product is stable under normal conditions of
handling and storage.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Please refer to Section 2 for applicable exposure limits.
EYE PROTECTION: To avoid contact with eyes, use chemical splash goggles. Face shield is
recommended. Eye wash station should be available in the work area.
HAND PROTECTION: Use neoprene, butyl or nitrile rubber gloves to minimize skin contact.
BODY PROTECTION: Use a rubber apron or impervious clothing (rain gear) to minimize contact.
Rubber boots are recommended. Full drench shower should be available in the work area.
RESPIRATOR: Use a NIOSH approved organic vapor respirator to reduce potential for inhalation
exposure. When using respirator cartridges, they must be changed frequently to assure breakthrough
exposure does not occur.
VENTILATION: General mechanical ventilation is recommended for enclosed areas.

Other toxicological data: NA See below See below See below
Cyclohexylamine: High oral doses have resulted in embryo and fetal toxicity and cyclohexylamine has caused fertility problems in mice,
probably as a secondary effect from reduced body weights in the mothers. Testicular effects (reduction in weight and spermatogenesis)
were observed in rats and dogs exposed orally to high doses (200 ?300 mg/kg/day) or in rats at 100 mg/kg/day or lower.
DEAE: [Significant Data With Possible Relevance to Humans] Contains one or more amines which may react with nitrites to form
nitrosamines. Some nitrosamines have been shown to be carcinogenic in laboratory animals. Diethylethanolamine is not mutagenic in a
variety of in vitro and in vivo assays. This material has been shown to cause testicular and thyroid atrophy in laboratory animals by chronic
feeding. These effects, however, were not observed in a subchronic inhalation study. No adverse effects were noted in the offspring of
rats exposed to diethylethanolamine by inhalation during pregnancy.
Morpholine: Although there has been secondary (anecdotal) reports of the potential for morpholine to be a dermal sensitizer in humans, the
weight of the available scientific information indicates that morpholine is not expected to be a dermal sensitizer based on animal and
human skin patch testing data.
