SECTION 3. HEALTH HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
PRIMARY ROUTES OF ENTRY: Eyes, skin, and respiratory system.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Respiratory problems, skin disorders.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS:
EYE CONTACT: Can cause moderate to severe irritation. Vapors can cause slight to moderate irritation
SKIN CONTACT: Can cause moderate irritation, de-fatting, and dermatitis. Section 2 ingredients can
be absorbed through the skin in toxic amounts.
INGESTION: Can cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. The possibility of
aspiration of vapors into the lungs can lead to serious damage and chemical pneumonia.
INHALATION: Can cause nasal and respiratory irritation, dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea,
headache, possible unconsciousness, and asphyxiation.
CHRONIC: Chronic exposure by inhalation and skin absorption can cause damage to lungs, kidneys,
liver, heart, and central nervous system.
CARCINOGENICITY: This product contains no ingredient above the OSHA de minimus reporting
threshold listed as a carcinogen by IARC, NTP, or OSHA.
SECTION 4. FIRST AID MEASURES
EYE CONTACT: Flush with water for 15 minutes. Get immediate medical attention.
SKIN CONTACT: Wash with soap and water. Call physician if irritation occurs.
INGESTION: To conscious person, give two glasses of water. Do not induce vomiting and call physician
immediately.
INHALATION: Move person to fresh air. If breathing stops, administer artificial respiration and call
physician immediately.
SECTION 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
FLASH POINT (o)F: Less than 20, TOC *** Flammable Liquid ***
LOWER FLAMMABLE LIMIT: 1.0 UPPER FLAMMABLE LIMIT: 7.5
MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET Page 2 of 4
SECTION 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES (Continued)
FIRE-FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS: Alcohol foam, CO2, and dry chemical. Use protective clothing and
self-contained breathing apparatus. Eliminate sources of ignition because vapors may travel along the
ground or be moved by ventilation.
DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Material may produce CO, CO2, H2O, hydrocarbons, and materials
listed in SECTION 2.
SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IF MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Eliminate all ignition sources.
Wear protective clothing including appropriate respiratory gear. Dike and pump liquid to waste
containers. Dispense sand, sawdust, or vermiculite and absorb spill residue. Shovel into secure waste
containers of solvent proof construction. Do not allow into waterways, sewers, or storm drains.
SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING: Store in well ventilated area. Use good hygienic practices. (Wash hands before eating,
using washroom, or smoking.) Keep closure tight and container upright to prevent leakage. Drums of this
material should be grounded and bonded when pouring. Do not puncture, drag, or slide container. Prevent
prolonged or repeated breathing of vapor or mist. Do not weld or flame cut an empty drum. Reports have
associated repeated and prolonged overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system
damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful or
fatal. This product as supplied is a liquid, and there are no dust hazards from the powders in it. When the
product is processed, the powders will be encapsulated. The user must determine if there is a potential
dust hazard based on the process used or the end use of the material, if dried.
*** Keep out of the reach of children. ***
STORAGE: Store between 40 and 100o F. DO NOT store or use near heat, sparks, or flame.
SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT:
EYE/FACE PROTECTION: Wear splash goggles, face shield, and/or full face respirator if contact with
liquid is likely.
SKIN PROTECTION: Wear solvent impermeable gloves where contact with liquid is likely. Wear
solvent resistant clothing where splash potential exists.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: If PEL or TLV is exceeded, use a NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator,
or a positive pressure supplied air respirator. Dust masks are not acceptable to prevent inhalation hazards.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Use sufficient ventilation, in volume and pattern, to keep air contaminant
concentration below PEL or TLV. Work areas must be free of all flame/ignition sources. Do not use in
confined spaces without proper ventilation.
