Section 3 ?HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW Product is a colorless, compressed gas and liquid. May cause chemical and mechanical eye,
skin, and respiratory tract irritation. For large spills, wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Dike to prevent
spread. Collect released product by adsorption.
CAUTION Slippery; can cause falls if walked on. Inhalation of mist or fumes, evolved upon heating of the release agent,
most likely to be irritating to respiratory tract. The solvents and propellant evaporate quickly leaving the silicone release
agent as a residue. To use safely, prevent overspray and prepare to control and prevent spills.
HEALTH EFFECTS (Acute and Chronic)
FATAL OR HARMFUL IF INHALED for the product as a whole. Overexposure can cause CNS depression
Nose
with anesthetic effects such as dizziness, headache, confusion, incoordination, and loss of consciousness.
Higher exposures to vapors may cause temporary alteration of the heart's electrical activity, with irregular
pulse, palpitations, or inadequate circulation; or fatality from gross overexposure.
FATAL OR HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED for the product as a whole. Because of the aerosol nature of the
Mouth
product, ingestion is unlikely. Small amounts of the release agent by fingers should not injure and large
amounts could cause digestive discomfort.
Irritation
Eyes
Irritation, defatting, dermatitis. NOTE Direct contact with spray can result in frostbite.
Skin
The product is not known to be a carcinogen or suspected carcinogen.
Chronic
ROUTE OF ENTRY Inhalation, eyes, skin.
TARGET ORGANS, MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE Not fully determined however,
exposure may aggravate diseases of the central nervous system, heart rhythm or other cardiovascular diseases, or
pulmonary diseases. If a person has one or more of these problems, consult medical personnel to determine what steps
should be taken.

Section 4 ?FIRST AID MEASURES
NOTE If an irritation persists, get medical help.
Breathing Remove to fresh air. Keep person warm and quiet. Apply artificial respiration if breathing has stopped.
If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. ** Get Medical Help at once **
Eating Not expected to be a route of entry. However, if ingested, ** Get Medical Help at once ** Aspiration
into lungs can cause chemical pneumonia. ** Induce vomiting ONLY IF advised by physician **
May act as a laxative. Small amounts should be rinsed out until taste of product is gone.
Flush thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes, consult a physician.
Eye Contact
Do not apply directly to skin! If accidentally discharged onto skin, wash with soap and water. Launder
Skin Contact
contaminated clothes before re-use.
Section 5 ?FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
UEL = 18%
Flash Point (estimated) .............< 0?F (<-18?C) Flammable Limits................LEL = 1%
Autoignition temperature .............ND
EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE LIQUID AND VAPOR VAPOR MAY CAUSE FLASH FIRE
Extinguishing Media Carbon Dioxide, Foam, Dry Chemical, Water Fog. Using water to cool exposed containers may be
useful.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with full face
piece operated in positive pressure mode, protective clothing, and avoid skin contact, due to thermal decomposition
products. Use equipment or shielding to protect personnel against rupturing or venting containers. Cooling containers
with water streams may be helpful. See decomposition products.
At elevated temperatures (> 120?F/>49?C) aerosol containers may vent or rupture.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards Static-electric sparks have been known to ignite accumulated vapors of flammable
propellant mixtures. Use caution where static-electric sparks can occur. Ensure enough ventilation to avoid vapor
accumulation, especially when spraying where there is an enclosure that would otherwise let vapors accumulate. Vapors
are heavier than air, and might collect below the spray area, or might travel long distances along the floor and become
ignited elsewhere.
Section 6 ?ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled Remove sources of ignition. Ventilate area to reduce
concentration of the components below their exposure limits. Use protective equipment consistent with the situation. Pick
up the spill on absorbent material; store in closed containers for proper disposal. Remove residue to prevent a slippery
condition developing. It is slippery on walkways; use a light solvent to clean area, to remove trace residues, but do not let
contaminated liquid get to drains, sewers, public water source, or rainfall. Do not puncture or burn containers.
Waste Disposal Methods Consult Federal, State, and Local regulations. Do not puncture or incinerate (burn) containers.
Give empty, leaking, or full containers to a disposal service equipped to handle and dispose of aerosol (pressurized)
containers.
Section 7 ?HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions to be Taken in Handling and Storage Store in cool, dry area out of direct sunlight. Do not puncture, burn,
or store above 120?F (49?C).
SPRAY APPLICATIONS Where exposure exceeds the TLV, use a NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator, goggles, rubber
gloves, and protective clothing.
Maintenance Precautions Do not remove or deface label.
Handling Thoroughly wash after handling, and before eating, drinking, or using tobacco products.
Other Precautions Read and follow directions and cautions on the container label, and any accompanying literature.
Overspray could make floors slippery. Use housekeeping and work rules to prevent slipping. Decomposition vapor is
heavier than air and can collect in low areas. Clean up spills promptly. Monitor floors for accumulation in overspray area;
clean as needed.
Section 8 ?EXPOSURE CONTROLS ?PERSONAL PROTECTION
GENERAL Usually local exhaust is not required. General room ventilation may be adequate to maintain components
below TLV/PEL, if handled at ambient temperatures, or in covered equipment. Local exhaust ventilation or other
engineering controls may be required, if ambient temperatures are exceeded, or if used in operations without good air
circulation.
Maintain enough ventilation to prevent fire/flash hazard from local accumulation of vapors, especially near sources of high
heat, electric arcs or static-electric sparks. NOTE vapors are heavier than air and could collect below the area where the
product is sprayed, or could travel long distances along floor and be ignited elsewhere.
Polymeric coated apron or other body covering is recommended where there is a possibility of regular work clothing
becoming contaminated with the product. All soiled or dirty clothing and personal protective equipment should be
thoroughly cleaned before reuse.

Material Safety Data Sheet
Respiratory Protection Generally not required if sufficient ventilation is provided. If the exposure limit of the product or
any of its components is exceeded, an approved organic vapor mask should be used (consult your safety equipment
supplier). If exposures exceed limits by less than a factor of ten, use a NIOSH approved, ?mask facepiece respirator for
particulate matter. If exposures exceed 10 times the recommended limits, consult a professional industrial hygienist or
your respiratory protective equipment supplier for selection of the proper equipment.
Protective Gloves Where prolonged or repeated contact with the spray mist or the deposited product is likely, use
polymeric materials, neoprene, etc. for personal protective equipment, gloves and clothing.
Other Protective Equipment If contact with the spray is likely, eye protection is recommended. Chemical Monogoggles
or safety glasses with side shields, and a face shield will provide protection in most situations.
Other Engineering Controls To determine exposure levels, monitoring should be performed. Eye bath and safety
shower station should be available. To determine exposure levels, monitoring should be performed.
Work Practices Do not use in confined or closed space. Use enough ventilation to maintain the concentration of the
product and its components below their exposure limits. Avoid long-term or repeated contact. Stained clothing should be
removed and laundered before re-use. Sudden release of hot vapor or mist from process equipment operating at
elevated temperature and pressure, or sudden ingress of air into hot equipment under vacuum, may result in
decomposition without obvious source of heat. Any use of this product in elevated-temperature processes must be
thoroughly evaluated to establish and maintain safe operating conditions.
Hygienic Practices As with using any chemical product, avoid contact with skin and avoid breathing vapors, do not eat,
drink, or smoke in work area; wash hands prior to eating, drinking or using restroom after handling or using. Any chemical
product can contaminate tobacco, causing illness (from inhaling components heated in tobacco smoke or ingested from
handling tobacco and/or food products).
