SECTION THREE - PHYSICAL DATA
BOILING POINT: (
VAPOR DENSITY (AIR=1): Heavier than SPECIFIC GRAVITY (H2O=1): .95-1.05 (concentrate only)
SOLUBILITY IN WATER % BY WT.: ~80 % VOC CONTENT % BY WT.: 26%
EVAPORATION RATE (BUTYL ACETATE=1): Slower than
APPEARANCE AND ODOR: White liquid with a faint ammonical odor
SECTION FOUR - FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA
FLASH POINT:
EXTINGUISHING MEDIUM: Dry chemical, foam carbon dioxide
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES: Shut off source to prevent spreading. Wear self-contained breathing
apparatus when fighting fires. Shut off all sources of ignition. Keep exposed containers cool with water to prevent
rupture.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Mixtures with air are highly flammable. Vapors are heavier than air and
may travel long distances to ignition sources (open flames, glowing metal surfaces). Containers may rupture when
exposed to extreme heat.
SECTION FIVE - REACTIVITY DATA
STABILITY: Stable, avoid open flames, high temperatures and direct sunlight.
INCOMPATIBILITY: Strong oxidizing materials
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Carbon oxides
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur

SECTION SIX - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE
EYE CONTACT: May cause mild irritation. Direct contact with the liquid or exposure to vapors or mist may cause
stinging, tearing and redness. Propellant may cause freeze burns.
SKIN CONTACT: Liquid may cause mild irritation (defatting, dermatitis). May cause frostbite if exposed to direct spray.
Warm skin slowly if frostbitten.
SKIN ABSORPTION: Contact may result in skin absorption, but symptoms of toxicity are not anticipated by this route
alone under normal conditions of use.
INGESTION: Not likely as an aerosol but, if swallowed, effects of overexposure may include irritation of the digestive tract,
nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, visual disturbances, nervous system depression, kidney damage, coma and
convulsions.
INHALATION: Breathing of vapors or mists produced under certain conditions of use may cause irritation of the nose,
throat and respiratory tract headache and drowsiness.
SYSTEMIC AND OTHER EFFECTS: Persons with pre-existing skin disorders may be more susceptible to the effects of
this material. Diethylene Glycol, a component of ethylene glycol, has caused liver and kidney damage in long-term studies
on laboratory animals. Ethylene Glycol may cause birth defects based on tests with laboratory animals.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
EYE CONTACT: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for 15 minutes, lifting both upper and lower eyelids. If
irritation or redness develops seek medical attention.
SKIN CONTACT: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin with soap and water thoroughly. If irritation or redness
develops and persists, seek medical attention.
INHALATION: If respiratory symptoms develop, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing
is difficult, give oxygen. Seek medical attention immediately. If irritation develops seek medical attention.
INGESTION: Ingestion is not likely but, if swallowed, seek immediate medical attention. Do not induce vomiting.
SECTION SEVEN - ENVIRONMENTAL AND DISPOSAL INFORMATION
ACTION TO TAKE FOR SPILLS/LEAKS: Ventilate area, especially low places where heavy vapors might collect.
Remove open flames. Comply with federal, state, and local regulations on reporting releases. Self-contained breathing
apparatus (SCBA) is required if a large spill or release occurs.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Absorb on clay, vermiculite or other absorbent material and place into an approved D.O.T.
container for disposal in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations.
SECTION EIGHT - HANDLING AND STORAGE PRECAUTIONS
