SECTION VI - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Route(s) of Entry: Inhalation (Y) Skin (Y) Eye (Y) Ingestion (Y)
Health Hazards (Acute and Chronic): Chronic overexposure to a component or components in this
material has been suggested as a cause of the following effects in humans: peripheral nerve damage, visual
disturbances, and cardiac arrhythmias. Chronic overexposure to a component or components in this
material has been found to cause the following affects in laboratory animals: damage to kidney, blood,
lung, liver, spleen, and reproductive system.
Carcinogenicity: NTP (N) IARC Monographs (N) OSHA Regulated (N)
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure: Eye - May cause irritation. Skin - May cause irritation. Product
contains a component which can be absorbed through the ski. Excessive exposure may cause hemolysis
(red blood cell damage) which can impair the blood's ability to transport oxygen. Inhalation - Exposure to
high concentrations of vapors may cause dizziness, breathing difficulty, headaches, or respiratory irritation.
Extremely high concentrations may cause drowsiness, staggering, confusion, unconsciousness, coma, or
death. Excessive inhalation of vapors can cause nasal and respiratory irritation. Ingestion ?N/D.
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure: Pre-existing heart disorders and dermatitis
Emergency and First Aid Procedures: Eye - Immediately flush with plenty of water. If irritation persists,
get medical attention. Skin - Remove contaminated clothing and wash affected skin thoroughly with soap
and water. Seek medical attention if irritation persists. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse.
Inhalation - Move person to fresh air. If breathing stops, apply artificial respiration and seek medical
attention. Ingestion - CONTACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY! DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING.
The decision to induce vomiting must be made by a physician after careful consideration of all materials
ingested.
SECTION VII - PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE
Steps to be Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled: Remove all sources of ignition. Ventilate
area of spill and adjacent low-lying areas. Avoid breathing solvent vapors. Remove with inert absorbent
materials with non-sparking tools.
Waste Disposal Method: Place in closed containers. Dispose of product in accordance with federal, state,
county, and local regulations.
Precautions to be taken in Handling and Storing: Store in a cool, dry area (<120? with ventilation
suitable for storing materials shown in Section II. Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Store away
from direct sunlight or sources of ignition. Wash hands thoroughly after handling.
Other Precautions: KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN!
SECTION VIII - CONTROL MEASURES
Respiratory Protection (Specify Type): A NIOSH/OSHA-approved respirator suitable for components
listed in Section II is recommended if workplace exposure limits are to be exceeded.
Ventilation: Local Exhaust & Mechanical - Provide sufficient ventilation, in volume and pattern, to keep
air contamination below current applicable PELs and TLVs.
Protective Gloves: Chemical-resistant plastic or rubber gloves
Eye Protection: Chemical goggles with side shields or face shield
Other Protective Clothing or Equipment: Impervious clothing for prolonged or repeated contact.
Work/Hygiene Practices: Always follow good housekeeping and personal hygiene practices.
