Section 3 - Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview: Warning! Flammable. Harmful if inhaled. Causes eye and skin irritation.
Aspiration may cause lung damage. May cause dizziness and drowsiness. Keep away from heat, sparks,
flame. Avoid breathing vapor. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Do not swallow. Keep container
closed. Use with adequate ventilation. Wash thoroughly after handling. Mutagenic Activity. Suspect
Cancer Hazard. Contains a material which may cause cancer. Risk of cancer depends on duration and
level of exposure. Harmful if in contact with skin. Harmful if swallowed. Mild eye irritant. Mild skin irritant.
May cause skin sensitization. Contains MDA which is a liver toxin.
Effects Of Overexposure - Eye Contact: Can cause eye irritation.
Effects Of Overexposure - Skin Contact: Direct skin contact may cause irritation. May be harmful if
absorbed through the skin.
Effects Of Overexposure - Inhalation: Harmful if inhaled, may affect the brain or nervous system,
causing dizziness, headache, or nausea. May cause nose and throat irritation.
Effects Of Overexposure - Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed.
Effects Of Overexposure - Chronic Hazards: Product may cause cancer after repeated exposure.
Repeated and/or prolonged exposure may cause allergic reaction / sensitization. Repeated and/or
prolonged exposures may result in: liver disorders (such as jaundice or liver enlargement), kidney
disorders (such as edema, or proteinuria), blood chemistry changes (such as methemoglobinenia leading
to cyanosis or loss of consciousness), reproductive disorders (such as birth defects or sterility), adverse
skin effects (such as defatting, rash or irritation), adverse skin effects (such as rash irritation or corrosion).
Dryness of nasal passages may be experienced when material is inhaled over a long period of time. m-
Phenylenediamine may affect the blood, causing the formation of methemoglobin. Exposure may cause
anemia, and kidney and liver impairment. m-Phenylenediamine has produced positive results in
Page 1 of 5
mutagenicity and chromosome aberration studies. Product contains methylenedianiline (MDA) which has
been found to produce toxic hepatitus in man, as well as possible kidney, blood, and spleen disorders.
Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent
brain and nervous system damage.
Primary Route(s) Of Entry: Skin Contact, Skin Absorption, Ingestion, Eye Contact
Medical Conditions Prone to Aggravation by Exposure: Kidney Disorders, Liver disorders, Skin
disorders and allergies, Unknown blood disorders.
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
First Aid - Eye Contact: If material gets into eyes, flush with water immediately for 15 minutes. Consult
a physician.
First Aid - Skin Contact: In case of contact, immediately wash with plenty of soap and water for at least
15 minutes. Seek medical attention. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Clean contaminated
clothing and shoes before re-use. Destroy contaminated leather articles.
First Aid - Inhalation: If breathing has stopped or is labored, give assisted respirations (e.g. mouth to
mouth). Supplemental oxygen may be indicated. Seek medical advice. If the heart has stopped, trained
personnel should begin cardiopulmonary resuscitation immediately. Move to fresh air.
First Aid - Ingestion: If swallowed do not induce vomiting. Seek immediate medical attention.
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point, F: 48F (9C) Lower Explosive Limit, %: N/A
Upper Explosive Limit, %: N/A
(Setaflash)
Extinguishing Media: Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Foam, Water Fog
Unusual Fire And Explosion Hazards: Flammable Liquid. Vapors are heavier than air and will
accumulate. Vapors will form explosive concentrations with air. Vapors travel long distances and will
flashback. Use mechanical ventilation when necessary to keep percent vapor below the "Lower Explosion
Level" (LEL). Eliminate all ignition sources. Keep away from sparks, open flames and heat sources. All
electric equipment and installations should be made and grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code. In areas where explosion hazards exist, workers should be required to use non-ferrous
tools and to wear conductive and non-sparking shoes. May generate toxic or irritating combustion
products. Vapor may form explosive mixtures with air. Contact of liquid with skin must be prevented.
Sudden reaction and fire may result if product is mixed with an oxidizing agent. May generate carbon
monoxide gas. May generate toxic nitrogen oxide gases. May generate ammonia gas. Personnel in
vicinity and downwind should be evacuated.
Special Firefighting Procedures: Avoid contact with the skin. A face shield should be worn. Use
personal protective equipment. Wear Self-contained breathing apperatus for fire fighting if necessary.
Flammable. Cool fire-exposed containers using water spray.
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
Steps To Be Taken If Material Is Released Or Spilled: Eliminate all ignition sources. Handling
equipment must be grounded to prevent sparking. Evacuate the area of unprotected personnel. Wear
appropriate personal protection clothing and equipment. Follow exposure controls/personal protection
guidelines in Section 8. Contain and soak up residual with an aborbent (clay or sand). Take up absorbant
material and seal tightly for proper disposal. Dispose of in accordance with local, state and federal
regulations. Refer to Section 15 for SARA Title III and CERCLA information.
Section 7 - Handling And Storage
Handling: Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Wear
personal protection equipment. Do not breathe vapors. Wash thoroughly after handling. If pouring or
Page 2 of 5
transferring materials, ground all containers and tools. Do not weld, heat, cut or drill on full or empty
containers. Use only in accordance with Carboline application instructions, container label and Product
Data Sheet.
Storage: Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames and oxidizing agents. Keep containers closed. Store
in a cool, dry place with adequate ventilation.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Engineering Controls: Use explosion-proof ventilation when required to keep below health exposure
guidelines and Lower Explosion Limit (LEL).
Respiratory Protection: Use only with ventilation to keep levels below exposure guidelines listed in
Section 2. User should test and monitor exposure levels to ensure all personnel are below guidelines. If
not sure, or not able to monitor, use MSHA/NIOSH approved supplied air respirator. Follow all current
OSHA requirements for respirator use. For silica containing coatings in a liquid state, and/or if no
exposure limits are established in Section 2 above, supplied air respirators are generally not required.
Skin Protection: Recommend impervious gloves and clothing to avoid skin contact. If material penetrates
to skin, change gloves and clothing. The use of protective creams may be beneficial to certain individuals.
Protective creams should be applied before exposure.
Eye Protection: Recommend safety glasses with side shields or chemical goggles to avoid eye contact.
Other protective equipment: Eye wash and safety showers should be readily available.
Hygienic Practices: Wash with soap and water before eating, drinking, smoking, applying cosmetics, or
using toilet facilities. Use of a hand cleaner is recommended. Launder contaminated clothing before
reuse. Leather shoes can absorb and allow hazardous materials to pass through. Check shoes carefully
after soaking before reuse.
