SECTION 3 ?HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: Harmful if swallowed. May cause eye irritation. Vapors from heated material may be
irritating.
ACUTE EFFECTS ?EYE CONTACT: Moderately irritating to the eyes.
ACUTE EFFECTS - SKIN CONTACT: Mild irritant. Prolonged contact may cause defatting and redness.
ACUTE EFFECTS ?INHALATION: Vapors from heated material may be irritating.
ACUTE EFFECTS - INGESTION: Irritating to mouth, throat and stomach, with ausea. Small amounts (a
ablespoonful) swallowed during normal handling operations are not likely to cause injury; swallowing amounts larger
than that may cause injury.
CHRONIC OVEREXPOSURE EFFECTS: *Preexisting pulmonary and dermatological disorders may be aggravated
by exposure to hazardous components.
OTHER INFORMATION: Not Applicable.
PRIMARY ROUTE(S) OF ENTRY: SKIN CONTACT, INGESTION, EYE CONTACT
SECTION 4 ?FIRST AID MEASURES
EYE CONTACT: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water. Get medical attention, if irritation persists.
SKIN CONTACT: Wash with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
INHALATION: No specific treatment is necessary since this material is not likely to be hazardous by inhalation. If
exposed to excessive levels of dusts or fumes, remove to fresh air and get medical attention if cough or other
symptoms develop.
INGESTION: If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Give victim a glass of water or milk. Call a physician or poison
control center immediately. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN: Not Applicable.
SECTION 5 ?FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FLASH POINT: >200 F (PENSKY-MARTENS C.C.)
LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT: N.A.
UPPER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT: N.A.
AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE: No data
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: ALCOHOL FOAM, CO2, DRY CHEMICAL, FOAM
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Closed containers may rupture or explode (due to pressure build-up)
when exposed to extreme heat. Irritating and/or toxic gases or fumes may be generated by thermal decomposition or
combustion.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES: Use NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus and full
protective clothing. Use water to cool exposed containers. Water stream directed into fire may cause frothing with
subsequent spread of flame.
SECTION 6 ?ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Reclaim clean material. Absorb
contaminated material with inert material such as clay. Contaminated material should be swept or shoveled into
appropriate waste container and disposed of in accordance with applicable federal, state and local regulations.

SECTION 7 ?HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING: Wash hands before eating. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. DO NOT take internally.
FOR INDUSTRIAL USE ONLY.
STORAGE: Store away from heat. KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
SECTION 8 ?EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: General ventilation usually adequate.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: None normally required under general ventilation. If exposure levels are unknown, if
levels exceed TLV/PEL, or if effects occur, use NIOSH-approved dust/mist respirator in accordance with applicable
health and safety regulations and manufacturer's recommendations.
SKIN PROTECTION: Clean clothing to cover skin. Butyl rubber gloves. Neoprene gloves. Nitrile gloves. PVA
gloves. PVC gloves.
EYE PROTECTION: Safety glasses or goggles.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Accessible eye wash and safety shower.
HYGIENIC PRACTICES: Follow good general industrial safety practices during use. DO NOT reuse empty containers
without commercial clean or recondition. Follow all MSDS/label precautions even after container is emptied.
