4. FIRST AID MEASURES
EYES: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.
SKIN: Wash with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists. Immediately remove
contaminated clothing.
INGESTION: If swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. Restore breathing if necessary. Get medical attention. This material can cause
lung damage.
DO NOT LEAVE VICTIM UNATTENDED.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES AND FIRE HAZARDS
OSHA CLASS: IIIB
FLASH POINT: >200? TAG CLOSED CUP
LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT: Not Applicable
GENERAL HAZARD: May release flammable mixtures when temperatures are at or above the flash point. Toxic
gases will form upon combustion. Closed containers may explode when exposed to extreme heat.
Vapors are heavier than air and may travel a considerable distance.
FIRE FIGHTING EQUIPMENT: Respiratory and eye protection required for fire fighting personnel. Full protective
equipment and a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) should be used in all indoor fires and any large outdoor
fires.
HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, smoke and fumes, hydrocarbon
fragments, nitrogen oxides, amino compounds.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES (SPILLS OR LEAKS)
Keep all sources of ignition and hot metal surfaces away from spill. Isolate the danger area and keep unauthorized
personnel out. Stop spill if it can be done with minimal risk. Wear appropriate protective equipment including
respirator protection as conditions warrant (see section 8). Prevent additional discharge of material. Notify the
appropriate authorities immediately. Contain spilled liquid with sand, earth or other non-combustible inert absorbent
material. Prevent run off from entering storm sewers, ditches or waterways. Transfer absorbed waste material into
properly identified drums. Treat waste material with same precautions as the adhesive.
Do not use solvent or flammable liquid to help clean up an accidental release.
Release to the environment may be reportable under environmental regulations
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING: Open container slowly to relieve any pressure. Bond and ground all equipment when transferring from
one vessel or container to another. This material can accumulate static charge by flow or agitation. Use spark proof
tools and explosion proof equipment as directed by local fire codes. Do not enter confined spaces such as tanks without
following proper entry procedures as described in OSHA regulations at 29 CFR 1910.146. Do not breathe vapors. The
use of respiratory protection is recommended when airborne concentrations of vapor exceed exposure guidelines.
Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not wear contaminated clothing or shoes. Wear appropriate protective gloves and
clothing to prevent prolonged or repeated skin contact. Avoid contact with eyes.
"EMPTY" containers may contain liquid and vapor residue and may be dangerous. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze,
solder, drill, grind, or expose such containers to heat, flame, sparks, or other sources of ignition. They may explode and
cause injury or death. "EMPTY" drums should be completely drained, properly bunged, and promptly shipped to the
supplier or a drum reconditioner. All containers should be disposed of in accordance with governmental regulations.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, smoke and fumes, hydrocarbon
fragments, nitrogen oxides, amino compounds.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur.
STORAGE: Keep containers tightly closed. Use and store this material in cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from
heat, direct sunlight, hot metal surfaces, and all sources of ignition. Post area "No smoking or open flames." Store
only in approved containers. Protect containers against physical damage. Indoor storage should meet OSHA standards
and appropriate fire codes.
Wash with soap and water before eating, drinking, smoking or using toilet facilities.
Consult NFPA and OSHA codes.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: A NIOSH/MSHA approved air purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge
may be used under conditions where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure guidelines. Protection
provided by air purifying respirators is limited. Refer to respirator manufacturer's selection guide for appropriate
respirator for conditions encountered. If in doubt, seek the advice of an industrial hygienist or safety professional for
appropriate air purifying respiratory equipment. use positive pressure air supplied respirator if there is potential for an
uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or in any other circumstances where air purifying respirators may
not provide adequate protection. Respiratory protection does not provide safety from flammable atmospheres. Do not
enter concentrations of vapors at, near or above the Lower Flammable Limit (LFL). When respiratory protection is
used, a respiratory protection program meeting OSHA regulations at 29 CFR 1910.134 must be followed.
SKIN PROTECTION: The use of gloves impermeable to the specific material handled is advised to prevent prolonged
or repeated skin contact. Where splashing is likely to occur, aprons impermeable to the specific material may be worn.
Refer to the glove and protective clothing manufacturer's selection guide for appropriate material.
EYE PROTECTION: Approved chemical splash goggles should be worn to safeguard against potential eye contact,
irritation or injury. Where splashing is likely to occur, hard hats and face shields may be used to provide additional
protection. Eye wash facilities should be available in the work area.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Provide sufficient mechanical ventilation to maintain exposure below TLV(S). The
use of local exhaust ventilation is recommended. Provide mechanical ventilation of confined spaces. If current
ventilation practices are not adequate to maintain airborne concentrations below the established exposure guidelines,
additional ventilation or exhaust systems may be required.
