General Fire Hazards
DANGER: EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE liquid and vapor.
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Material is highly volatile and readily gives off vapors which are heavier than air and
may travel along the ground or be moved by ventilation and ignited by pilot lights, other flames, sparks heaters, smoking,
electric motors, static discharge, or other ignition sources at locations distant from material handling point. Keep container
closed. Use with adequate ventilation.
Hazardous Combustion Products
Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, halogenated hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, and various hydrocarbons.
Extinguishing Media
Carbon dioxide (CO2), dry chemical.
Fire Fighting Equipment/Instructions
Use NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus operating in the pressure demand mode and full fire fighting
protective clothing. Avoid inhalation of vapors.
NFPA Ratings: Health = 2 Fire = 3 Reactivity = 1
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
Containment Procedures
Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate and ventilate spill area. Dam spill area with sand, earth, or other suitable absorbent.
Prevent entry of material into sewers, other water sources, or land areas. Wear full protective clothing and respiratory
protection during clean-up as required to maintain exposures below the applicable exposure limit. Shovel absorbed material
into containers in well-ventilated area.
Clean-Up Procedures
Place in closable container for disposal.
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
Handling Procedures
Use protective equipment as described in Section 8 of this safety data sheet when handling uncontained material. Handle in
accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practices.
Storage Procedures
Warehouse storage should be in accordance with package directions, if any. Product should be kept in a cool and dry area in
original packaging. Do not freeze.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Exposure Guidelines

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Personal Protective Equipment: Eyes/Face
Safety glasses with sideshields, chemical goggles, or a face shield is required.
Personal Protective Equipment: Skin
Impervious gloves such as nitrile rubber should be used to help prevent excessive skin contact.
Personal Protective Equipment: Respiratory
A NIOSH approved respirator must be used if vapor concentrations exceed exposure limits.
Ventilation
Local exhaust or general dilution ventilation may be required to maintain exposures below the applicable exposure limits. The
need for ventilation systems should be evaluated by a professional industrial hygienist, while the design of specific ventilation
systems should be conducted by a professional engineer.
Personal Protective Equipment: General
Protective equipment should be provided as necessary to prevent irritation of the throat, eyes, and skin, and to keep
exposures below the applicable exposure limits identified in Section 8.

Chronic Toxicity
Tetrahydrofuran: Prolonged, excessive exposures to vapors of tetrahydrofuran may produce liver and kidney injury. Liver and
kidney damage has been reported in experimental animals at high exposure levels. These effects may be attributable to
peroxide impurities. Recent studies performed in intensely exposed dogs, cats, rats, mice and rabbits do not show evidence of
liver or kidney damage. People exposed to high levels of Tetrahydrofuran had elevated circulating liver enzymes and
complained of nausea, tinnitus, and occipital headache.
