Section 3: Hazards Identification (continued)
Carcinogenicity: NTP CARCINOGEN: No IARC MONOGRAPHS: No OSHA REGULATED: No
Exposure Guidelines: Target Organs: Skin, Eyes
Aggravated Medical Skin contact may aggravate existing dermatitis (skin condition). Over exposure to vapor or mist may

Section 4: First Aid Measures
General advice: Swallowing this corrosive material may result in severe ulceration, inflammation and possible perforation of
the upper alimentary tract, with hemorrhage and fluid loss. Aspiration of this product during induced
emesis can result in severe lung injury. If evacuation of stomach is necessary, use method least likely to
cause aspiration, such as gastric lavage after endotracheal intubation. Contact a Poison Control Center for
additional treatment information.
Eye contact : Flush at once with potable water for at least 15 minutes. DO NOT attempt to neutralize with chemical
agents. Get medical attention.
Skin contact : Flush at once with potable water for at least 15 minutes. DO NOT attempt to neutralize with chemical
agents. Get immediate medical attention. Remove contaminated clothes. Wash before reuse. Destroy
contaminated shoes. Get medical attention if swelling and/or irritation occurs.
Ingestion : Give water to dilute stomach contents. DO NOT induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, give fluids again. Get
immediate medical attention. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person.
Inhalation : Move to fresh air. Get medical attention if effects persist.
Section 5: Fire Fighting Measures
Suitable extinguishing media : Alcohol-resistant foam.
Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Dry chemical.
Dry sand.
Limestone powder.
Specific hazards : May generate ammonia gas. May generate toxic nitrogen oxide gases. Use of water may result in the
formation of very toxic aqueous solutions. Do not allow run-off from fire fighting to enter drains or
water courses. Incomplete combustion may form carbon monoxide. Downwind personnel must be
evacuated. Burning produces obnoxious and toxic fumes.
Special protective equipment Avoid contact with the skin. A face shield should be worn. Use personal protective equipment. Wear
positive pressure self contained breathing equipment. Use water to cool containers exposed to fire. Water
may be an ineffective extinguishing agent.
Further information : Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along the ground or be moved by ventilation to ignition sources
at locations distant from material handling point. Pressure may build up in containers and create an
explosion hazard.
OSHA Flamability Class: Combustible Class III B
Section 6: Accidential Release Measures
Personal precautions: Use positive pressure self contained breathing equipment and chemically protective clothing. Wear suitable
protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.
Environmental precautions: Construct a dike to prevent spreading.
Methods for cleaning up: Approach suspected leak areas with caution. Contact Air Products' Emergency Response Center for advice.
Place in appropriate chemical waste container.
Additional advice: If possible, stop flow of product. Avoid contact. Allow only personnel wearing goggles, neoprene or rubber
gloves and protective clothing to clean up spill. In confined areas a full face respirator is recommended.
Absorb spill with clay, diatomaceous earth or other absorbent materials. Place in disposal containers.

Section 7: Handling and Storage
Handling: Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Emergency showers and eye wash stations
should be readily accessible. Adhere to work practice rules established by government regulations. Use
personal protective equipment. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke.
Storage: Do not store near acids. Keep containers tightly closed in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Do not
remove labels from empty containers. If mixtures of Part B and Part A are allowed to remain in the mixing
container past the pot life deadline, heat and a strong reaction will result.
Technical measures/Precautions: Do not store in reactive metal containers.
Section 8: Exposure Controls / Personal Protection D
a
p
Engineering Measures:
Provide readily accessible eye wash stations and safety showers. Provide natural or explosion-proof
ventilation adequate to ensure concentrations are kept below exposure limits.
Personal Protective Equipment:
Respiratory Protection: If vapor or mist is generated and the occupational exposure limit is exceeded, use appropriate
NIOSH/MSHA approved self contained breathing equipment or a full face respirator. Respirators should
be selected by and used following requirements found in OSHA's respirator standards (29 CFR 1910.134).
Not required for properly ventilated areas.
Ventilation: Mechanical ventilation required if TLV is expected to be exceeded in confined areas.
Hand Protection: Neoprene gloves.
Butyl-rubber gloves.
Nitrile rubber.
Impervious gloves.
The breakthrough time of the selected glove(s) must be greater than the intended use period.
Eye Protection: Wear splash-proof chemical resistant goggles
Full face shield with goggles underneath.
Skin and Body Protection: Avoid skin contact by wearing chemically resistant gloves and long sleeved shirt. An apron may be
appropriate if splashing can occur.
Environmental Exposure Controls: Construct a dike to prevent spreading.
Special Instructions for Discard contaminated leather articles. Remove contaminated clothing. Drench affected area with water for
Protection and Hygiene: at least 15 minutes Provide readily accessible eye wash stations and safety showers. Wash at the end of
each workshift and before eating, smoking or using the toilet.

Chronic Health Hazard
The product or a component may be mutagenic, the data is inconclusive. Mixed Polycycloaliphatic amines was tested in rats for systemic
effects in a subchronic (28 day) oral study at doses ranging from 15 to 300 mg/kg/day. Effects seen at 300 mg/kg/day included decreased
survival, decreased body weight gain, increased liver, kidney, and adrenal weights and histological changes in the liver, kidney, adrenals and
spleen. The No-Observed-Adverse-Effect-Level (NOAEL) was 15 mg/kg/day. Rats exposed orally to 800 mg/kg benzyl alcohol for thirteen
weeks exhibited CNS depression and histopathological changes in the brain, thymus and skeletal muscules. The No-Observed-Adverse-
Effect-Level (NOAEL) was 400 mg/kg. No evidence of carcinogenicity was seen in a two-year study with rats and mice.
