SECTION 3. HAZARD DATA----------------------------------------------------------------------------
INFLAMMABILITY: Flammable liquid.
SKIN CONTACT: Irritant.
EYE CONTACT: Severe eye irritant.
INGESTION: Harmful if ingested.
INHALATION: Harmful if inhaled.
MUTAGENICITY: Data not available.
CARCINOGENICITY: Data not available.
TARGET ORGANS: Eyes, Epidermis, Nervous System.
SECTION 4. FIRST AID MEASURES-------------------------------------------------------------------
INHALATION: Inhalation is not an expected route of exposure. If respiratory irritation or
distress occurs remove victim to fresh air. Seek medical attention if
respiratory irritation or distress continues.
INGESTION: If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-3 glasses of water to drink and
induce vomiting by touching back of throat with a finger. Do not induce
vomiting or give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Seek
immediate medical attention. Do not leave victim unattended. Vomiting
may occur spontaneously. To prevent aspiration of swallowed product, lay
victim on side with head lower than waist. If vomiting occurs and the
victim is conscious, give water to further dilute the chemical.
SKIN CONTACT: In case of contact, immediately wash with plenty of soap and water for at
least 5 minutes. Seek medical attention. Remove contaminated clothing
and shoes. Clean contaminated clothing and shoes before re-use.
EYE CONTACT: Hold eyelids open and flush with a steady, gentle stream of water for at
least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention.

SECTION 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES-----------------------------------------------------------
EXTINGUISHING
MEDIA: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, alcohol foam, and universal
foam.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING
PRECAUTIONS: Firefighters should wear NIOSH/MSHA approved self-
contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.
Remove all ignition sources if it can be done safely.
UNUSUAL FIRE OR
EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Product will burn under fire conditions. Containers may
explode (due to build-up of pressure) when exposed to extreme
heat. Vapors may travel a considerable distance to a source of
ignition and flash back along vapor trail.
SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE PROCEDURES -------------------------------------------
EVACUATION
PROCEDURES & SAFETY: Wear appropriate protective gear for the situation. See Personal
Protection information in Section 8.
CLEANUP & DISPOSAL
OF SPILL: Absorb with an inert absorbent. Sweep up and place in an
appropriate closed container (see Section 7). Clean up residual
material by washing area with water. Collect washings for
disposal.
ENVIRONMENTAL &
REGULATORY REPORTING: Do not flush to drain. If required proper authorities should be
notified.
SECTION 7. STORAGE AND HANDLING PRECAUTIONS---------------------------------------
STORAGE: Store in tightly closed container in a cool, dry, well-ventilated
environment away from ignition sources. Recommended container
materials are polyethylene or glass.
HANDLING: Use only under yellow light.
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flames.
Use only with mechanical exhaust.
Do not contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Severe eye irritant.
Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin.
Do not breathe vapors or mist.
Wash with soap and water after handling.
Have safety shower and eye wash available.
Store and transfer under a blanket of dry inert gas.
