Section III - Health Hazards
Routes of Exposure ~ Ingestion, Skin Absorption, Inhalation
Exposure Standards ~ See Section II for exposure standards on ingredients.
Health Hazards ~ Severe eye irritant, Severe skin irritant, Severe respiratory tract irritant.
Corrosive Liquid. May cause respiratory sensitization.
Target Organs ~ Eyes; Respiratory system; Skin.
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure (Acute Effects) ~ Contact of undiluted product with
the
eyes or skin quickly causes severe irritation and pain and may cause burns, necrosis,
and permanent injury. Burns of the eye may cause blindness. Product vapor in low
concentrations can cause lacrimation, conjunctivitis and corneal edema when
absorbed
into the tissue of the eye from the atmosphere. Corneal edema may give rise to a
perception of "blue haze" or "fog" around lights. The effect is transient and has no
known residual effect. Inhalation of vapors may cause irritation in the respiratory
tract. Coughing and chest pain may result. Ingestion may cause headache, nausea,
vomiting.
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure (Possible Longer Term Effects) ~ Repeated and/or
prolonged exposures may result in adverse respiratory effects (such as cough,
tightness
of chest or shortness of breath); adverse skin effects (such as defatting, rash, or
irritation); adverse eye effects (such as conjunctivitis or corneal damage). Repeated
and/or prolonged exposure to vapors may cause allergic respiratory
reaction/sensitization.
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure ~ Asthma; Chronic respiratory
disease (e.g. Bronchitis, Emphysema); Eye disease; Skin disorders and Allergies.
Section IV - First Aid Procedures
Eye Contact - Hold eyelids apart and immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes. Call a physician.
Skin Contact - Remove product and immediately flush affected area with water for at
least 15 minutes. Call a physician. Except in the most minor, superficial and
localized
burns, cover the affected area with a sterile dressing or clean sheeting and transport
W805 Part B Page 3 of 7
Section IV - First Aid Procedures (cont.)
Skin Contact (cont.) - for medical care. DO NOT APPLY GREASES OR
OINTMENTS. Control shock, if present. Launder contaminated clothing prior to
reuse. Contaminated leather wear should be discarded. Victims of a major skin area
contact should remain under medical observation for at least 24 hours due to possible
delayed effects.
Ingestion - In the event of ingestion, administer 3-4 glasses of milk or water. DO NOT
INDUCE VOMITING. Obtain medical care and hospital treatment quickly.
Section V - Fire and Explosion Hazard Data
Characteristics
Flash Point ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 102?C. (216?F.)
Flash Point Method(s) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Pensky-Martin Closed Cup
Upper Explosion Limit (UEL) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ No Data
Lower Explosion Limit (LEL) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ No Data
Autoignition Temperature ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ No Data
Fire Hazard Classification (OSHA/NFPA) ~~~~ Combustible Liquid, Class III B
Extinguishing Media ~ Ignition will give rise to a Class B fire. In case of fire use
Water Spray, Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Dry Chemical, Alcohol Foam.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures ~ Retain expended liquids from fire fighting for later
disposal. Firefighters should wear butyl rubber boots, gloves, and body suit and a self-
contained breathing apparatus. Water spray is also useful in cooling fire-exposed tanks
and in dispersing vapors.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards ~ May generate toxic or irritating combustion
products. Sudden reaction and fire may result if product is mixed with an oxidizing
agent.
Section VI - Accidental Release Measures
Containment Techniques ~ (Removal of ignition sources, diking, etc.) Stop the leak, if
possible; Ventilate the space involved. Shut off or remove all ignition sources; Construct
a dike to prevent spreading.
Clean-up Procedures ~ If recovery is not feasible, admix with dry soil, sand or non-
reactive absorbent and place in a container or dumpster pending disposal. Flush area
with water spray. Clean-up personnel must be equipped with self-contained breathing
apparatus and butyl rubber protective clothing.
Section VII - Handling and Storage
Storage ~ Keep in cool, dry ventilated storage and in closed containers.
W805 Part B Page 4 of 7
Keep away from oxidizers, heat or flames.
Handling ~ Handle in well ventilated work space. Avoid breathing of vapors.
Other Precautions ~ Emergency showers and eye wash stations should be readily
accessible. Adhere to work practice rules established by government regulations
(e.g. OSHA).
Section VIII - Personal Protection/Exposure Controls
Eye Protection - Chemical safety glasses. In emergency situations, use eye goggles with
a full face shield.
Hand Protection - Nitrile rubber gloves. In emergency situations, wear impermeable
gloves with cuffs to prevent spread of material to area above the wrists.
Respiratory Protection - In poorly ventilated areas, a cartridge mask National Institute
for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) approved for organic vapors is
recommended.
Protective Clothing - Slicker suit, rubber boots.
Engineering Controls - Adequate general and local exhaust.
Work and Hygienic Practices - Wash at the end of each workshift and before eating,
smoking, or using the toilet. Launder or discard contaminated clothing. Discard
contaminated leather articles. Examine protective gloves before using. Discard if
evidence of holes or cracks is found.
