Skin absorption
Emergency Overview:
This section not in use.
This product contains ingredients that may contribute to the following potential acute health effects:
Page 1 / 7
Inhalation Effects:
Harmful if inhaled. May cause respiratory irritation. May cause respiratory tract sensitization.
Eye Contact:
May cause moderate eye irritation.
Skin Contact:
May cause skin irritation
Acute Ingestion:
May be harmful if swallowed.
Other Effects:
May cause liver damage. May cause kidney damage.
This product contains ingredients that may contribute to the following potential chronic health effects:
Notice: Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain
and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful
or fatal. May cause lung damage or impairment. Sensitization may be temporary or permanent.May cause liver
damage. May cause kidney damage.
See Section 11 for toxicological information about Mutagens, Teratogens and Carcinogens.
If this section is blank, no information is available.
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Inhalation:
If affected by inhalation, move victim to fresh air. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
Eye Contact:
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and get medical attention if irritation
persists.
Skin Contact:
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation persists get
medical attention.
Ingestion:
If swallowed , do not induce vomiting. Give large quantities of water. If available, give several glasses of milk. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately. If swallowed, get medical attention
immediately.
Medical conditions aggravated by exposure: Any respiratory or skin condition.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash point (Fahrenheit): 81?F ( 27?C) TCC/PM
Lower explosive limit: 1%
Upper explosive limit: 13 %
Autoignition temperature: Not available. ?F ( ?C)
Sensitivity to impact: No.
Sensitivity to static discharge: Subject to static discharge hazards. Please see bonding and
grounding information in Section 7.
Page 2 / 7
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Hazardous combustion products: See Section 10.
Unusual fire and explosion hazards:
Closed containers may explode due to build up of pressure when exposed to heat.
Extinguishing media:
In case of fire, use water spray (fog), alcohol foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide. Water may be ineffective. Water
spray (fog) may be used to cool containers.
Fire fighting procedures:
Use water spray to cool nearby containers and structures exposed to fire. Firefighters should be equipped with self-
contained breathing apparatus and turn out gear.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Action to be taken if material is released or spilled:
Ventilate area. Avoid breathing of vapors. Use self-containing breathing apparatus or airmask for large spills in a
confined area. Wipe, scrape or soak up in an inert material and put in a container for disposal. See section 5, "Unusual
Fire and Explosion Hazards", for proper container and storage procedures. Remove sources of ignition. Remove with
inert absorbent and non sparking tools. Avoid contact with eyes.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions to be taken in handling and storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flames. Keep container closed when not in use. Do not store above 120 degrees F.
(49 degrees C). Based on flash point and vapor pressure, suitable storage should be provided in accordance with OSHA
regulation 1910.106, Ontario OH&S regulation 851 section 22. Empty containers may contain product residue, including
flammable or explosive vapors. Do not cut, puncture or weld on or near container. All label warnings must be observed
until the container has been commercially cleaned or reconditioned. If the product is used near or above the flashpoint,
an ignition hazard may be present. Activities, uses, or operations which liberate vapor (such as mixing or free fall of
liquids) may also present an ignition hazard. Take precautionary measures against electrostatic discharges.
To avoid fire or explosion, dissipate static electricity during transfer by grounding and bonding containers and
equipment before transferring material. Empty containers retain product residue and can be hazardous. Do not reuse
container.
8. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND EXPOSURE CONTROLS
Personal Protective Equipment
Eye and face protection:
Avoid contact with eyes. Wear chemical goggles if there is the possibility of contact or splashing in the eye.
Skin protection:
Usual hand protection for handling resin products. Usual clothing for handling resin products.
Respiratory protection:
If exposure cannot be controlled below applicable limits, use the appropriate NIOSH approved respirator such as an air
purifying respirator with organic vapor cartridge and dust/mist filter. Consult the respirator manufacturer's literature to
ensure that the respirator will provide adequate protection. Read and follow all respirator manufacturer's instructions.
Ventilation
Required for handling or applying in a confined area. Ventilation equipment should be explosion proof. Eliminate ignition
sources.
