**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****
Eyes:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids. If irritation
develops, get medical aid.
Skin:
Flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes
while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if
irritation develops or persists. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do NOT induce
vomiting. Allow the victim to rinse his mouth and then to drink 2-4
cupfuls of water, and seek medical advice. Get medical aid if
irritation or symptoms occur.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. If not breathing,
give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
Get medical aid if cough or other symptoms appear.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively.
**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES ****
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full
protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases
may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Use water
spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Combustible Liquid.
Containers may explode if exposed to fire.
Extinguishing Media:
In case of fire, use water, dry chemical, chemical foam, or
alcohol-resistant foam. Use agent most appropriate to extinguish
fire. Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well
after fire is out.
Autoignition Temperature: 200 deg C ( 392.00 deg F)
Flash Point: 83 deg C ( 181.40 deg F)
NFPA Rating: Not published.
Explosion Limits, Lower: N/A
Upper: N/A
**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Absorb spill with inert material, (e.g., dry sand or earth), then
place into a chemical waste container. Clean up spills immediately,
observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Remove
all sources of ignition. Use a spark-proof tool. Provide
ventilation.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Empty
containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be
dangerous. Keep container tightly closed. Avoid ingestion and
inhalation. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill,
grind, or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames.

MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET Page 3 of 6
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of
ignition. Store in a cool, dry place. Keep container closed when not
in use. Flammables-area.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Use adequate general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne
concentrations below the permissible exposure limits. Use process
enclosure, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls
to control airborne levels.
