may cause smarting, reddening, tingling, inflammation, and may cause dermatitis
and/or allergic sensitization in some individuals.
INGESTION: Ingested product may be corrosive to the lips, mouth, throat and stomach and
cause ulceration of the mucous membranes. In severe cases symptoms may
include cramps, nausea, vomiting, and harmful central nervous system effects.

SECTION 4 FIRST AID MEASURES
EMERGENCY/FIRST AID PROCEDURES
EYE: Flush eyes with large amounts of water for 15 minutes. Eyelids should be held
away from the eyeball to ensure thorough rinsing. Get medical attention

Contact a poison control center. Get medical attention immediately. Keep
affected person warm and at rest.
INHALATION: In case of overexposure immediately move person from contaminated area to
fresh air at once and support breathing as needed. Get medical attention
immediately. If breathing difficulties occur, administer oxygen until medical
assistance can be rendered. Keep affected person warm and at rest.
SECTION 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

cleanup and disposal.
NOTIFICATION INFORMATION
This material contains one or more constituents regulated as hazardous substances under U.S. Federal
Law. The reportable quantity (RQ) of this material is 20,000 pounds, calculated on the basis of the
regulated constituent providing the lowest RQ according to the following formula:
Constituent RQ/% in Material
Any spill, release, or substantial threat of release, of this material to the air, water and/or land in an
amount equal to or in excess of the RQ in any 24 hour period, must be reported immediately to the
National Response Center (800-424-8802); in Washington, D.C. (202-426-2675), unless the release
results in exposure to persons solely within the boundaries of the facility.
In addition, under the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) (40 CFR 355) any
release of this material to the air, water and/or land in an amount equal to or in excess of the RQ must be
reported to the State Emergency Response Commission(s) and Local Emergency Planning Committee(s)
likely to be affected by the release, unless the release is federally permitted or the release results in
exposure to persons solely within the boundaries of the facility. In the event there is no Local
Emergency Planning Committee, notification shall alternatively be made to the relevant local emergency
response personnel.

VENTILATION:
Control airborne concentrations below the exposure guidelines specified by the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA) or other local, state and federal regulations.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT/PROTECTIVE MEASURES
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:
Respiratory protection is not normally necessary. Respiratory protection may be needed when handling
used material in non-routine or emergency situations. If exposure limits may possibly exceed the TLV
or respiratory irritation is experienced, NIOSH approved respiratory protection should be worn. An
industrial hygienist or other qualified professional should be consulted during the respirator selection
process to assure that the respiratory protection used is appropriate under the conditions of use. A
respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29 CFR 1910.134 requirements must be followed
whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use.
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING:
Avoid skin contact. Wear gloves when handling this product.
EYE PROTECTION:
Avoid eye contact with this material. Wear chemical goggles. Do not wear contact lenses when
working with this substance. Do not touch the eyes with contaminated skin or materials. Provide an eye
wash station in the work area.
