Section 3. Hazards Identification
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Human Effects and Symptoms of Exposure
Routes of Entry ?Skin contact, Skin absorption, Eye contact, Inhalation and Ingestion
Acute Eye Contact ?Direct contact can cause severe irritation.
Acute Skin Contact ?Direct contact may cause irritation.
Skin Absorption ?Solvents may be absorbed through the skin in toxic amounts
Acute Inhalation ?Can cause irritation. Respiratory symptoms associated with pre-existing lung
disorders and pre-existing heart disorders may be aggravated by exposure to this product
Acute Ingestion ?May be harmful if ingested, not a likely route of entry.
Chronic Effects of exposure ?May cause reversible kidney and liver injury. Reports have
associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with
permanent brain and nervous system damage. Repeated exposure to Toluene has been
associated with high frequency hearing loss based on animal tests.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by exposure ?May cause skin sensitization in some people.
Carcinogenicity ?There are no components in this product that are listed as a carcinogen by
NTP, IARC, ACGIH or OSHA.
Section 4. First Aid Measures
First Aid For Eyes ?Flush with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Consult a
Physician if ill effects or irritation occurs.
First Aid For Skin ?Flush skin with running water and remove contaminated clothing then wash
with soap and water. Consult a Physician if ill effects or irritation occurs.
First Aid for Inhalation ?Remove victim to fresh air and provide oxygen if breathing is difficult.

Section 5. Fire Fighting Measures
Special Fire Fighting Instructions ?This product contains solvents that are dangerous fire and
explosion hazards when exposed to heat or flame. Full emergency equipment with self ?br>
contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing should be worn by firefighters.
Extinguishing Media ?CO2, Dry Chemical, Foam. Water may not be effective as an extinguishing
Agent. Water fog or spray may be used to provide a smothering effect on fire and to cool
fire-exposed containers and surrounding combustibles. Do not use a solid stream of
water because it can scatter and spread the fire.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards ?Extremely flammable. Store and use away from all
sources of heat, flame or sparks. Do not smoke while applying. Vapors are heavier than
air and may travel along ground or may be moved by ventilation and ignited by pilot
lights, open flames, sparks, heaters , smoking, electrical motors, static discharge or other
ignition sources at location distant from material handling point and flash back. All
containers should be grounded when material is transferred.
Flashpoint ?4.40?(40?br>

Upper Flammable Limit ?7.0 % by Vol.
Lower Flammable Limit ?1.3 % by Vol.
Autoignition temperature ?536癈 (997? F)
Sensitivity to Impact ?Not applicable.
Sensitivity to Static Discharge ?Vapors may ignite when exposed to static discharge.
Hazardous Combustion Products ?Thermal decomposition may produce toxic fumes of Carbon
Monoxide and/or Carbon dioxide.
Section 6. Accidental release measures
Personal Precautions ?Use personal protection recommended in section 8.
Methods For Cleaning Up ?Remove all sources of ignition. Avoid breathing vapors. Use self
Contained breathing apparatus in enclosed area. Ventilate area. Contain and remove
With inert absorbent materials and non-sparking tools.
Section 7. Handling and Storage
Handling ?Use away from all sources of heat, flame or sparks. Do not smoke while using.
Handling equipment must be grounded to prevent sparking. Handle with non-sparking
Tools. Wash with soap and water before eating or drinking. Launder contaminated
Clothing. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
Storage ?Keep containers cool, dry and store away from all sources of heat, flame and sparks.
Keep containers tightly closed and store with adequate ventilation. Do not pressurize, cut,
weld or grind the containers, or empty containers which may contain residual product and
solvent vapors that may ignite explosively.
Section 8. Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Exposure Guidelines ?OSHA PEL-TWA for Toluene = 100 ppm
Engineering controls ?Do not use in enclosed areas without proper explosion-proof ventilation.
General and local exhaust ventilation must be sufficient to control vapor concentrations
and keep the vapor concentration below 100 ppm
.Personal Protective Equipment:
Eye Protection ?Wear safety glasses or goggles to avoid eye contact.
Skin Protection ?Hycron, Neoprene, Nitrile or equivalent solvent permeation resistant-
