Section VI ?Health Hazard Data
Routes of Entry:
Inhalation X Skin X Ingestion X
Health Hazards (Acute and Chronic) May cause eye and skin irritations.
If ingested, seek medical attention.
Carcinogenicity:
NTP N/A IARC N/A OSHA N/A
Monographs Regulated
Signs and Symptoms Eyes: Exposure to vapor or liquid product may be
of irritating, and could cause reddening, swelling, and
Exposure tissue damage if not removed immediately.
Skin: Exposure may cause cracking, irritation, or
dermatitis. May cause allergic reaction. Components
may be absorbed through the skin.
Ingestion: Aspiration hazard. Small amounts of the
liquid aspirated into the respiratory during ingestion,
or from vomiting may cause bronchopneumonia or
pulmonary edema. Ingestion may result in irritation,
headache, nausea, drowsiness, fatigue, central
nervous system depression, convulsions and loss of
consciousness, coma, and death.
Inhalation: Overexposure may cause headache, nasal
and respiratory irritation, nausea, drowsiness,
vomiting, central nervous system depression, and
loss of consciousness. Dust from product may be
irritating to the respiratory system.
Medical Conditions N/A
Generally Aggravated
by Exposure
Emergency and First Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with water for at least
Aid Procedures 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower
lids. Seek medical attention promptly.
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Flush exposed
areas with mild soap and water. If irritation occurs,
seek medical attention. If clothing is contaminated,
remove and wash before use.
Ingestion: Seek medical attention immediately. Do
not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to
an unconscious person.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Seek medical
attention.
Section VII ?Precautions for Safe Handling and Use
Steps to be taken in Case Material is Notify emergency response personnel.

Released or Spilled Evacuate area and remove ignition
sources. Shut off source of spill or leak
if safe to do so. Ground equipment
and electrically bond transfer
equipment together to eliminate
sparking. Contain spills with dikes or
other appropriate measures; collect
product and place in suitable container
for disposal. Soak up with inert non-
combustible absorbent material. Wear
appropriate personnel protection.
Waste Disposal Method Dispose of according to Federal, State,
and Local regulations and consistent
with good ecological practices.
Precautions to be taken in Handling Do not breathe vapor or dust from
and Storing sample. Avoid elevated temperatures,
which could lead to pressure buildup in
sample. Product should be handled
with adequate ventilation to maintain
air borne concentrations within the safe
limits. Samples should be stored at
ambient or cool temperatures in airtight
non-aluminum containers. Bond all
equipment when transferring product to
avoid static discharge. Avoid contact
with eyes, skin, and clothing.
Other Precautions N/A
Section VIII ?Control Measures
Respiratory Protection (Specify Type):
Ventilation: Special: Use a properly
approved
NIOSH/MSHA
respirator unless
vapor/mist/dust levels
are below the
PEL/TLV limits.
Local Recommended Mechanical N/A Other: N/A
(General):
Exhaust
Protective Gloves Protective gloves should be
worn to minimize contact.
Eye Protection Safety glasses, chemical
goggles, or face shield if eye
contact is anticipated
5
Other Protective Clothing or Equipment Protective clothing should be
worn to minimize contact.
Work/Hygienic Practices Maintain local or dilution
ventilation to keep air
concentration below PEL/TLV
limits. Loading, unloading, tang
gauging, etc. remain upwind.
Close container after each use.
Keep away from heat, sparks
and flames. KEEP OUT OF
REACH OF CHILDREN!
