Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards:
This material may be ignited by heat, sparks, flames or other ignition sources (static electricity). Vapors are
heavier than air and will collect in low areas (sewers) or travel considerable distances. If containers are not
cooled in a fire, they may rupture and ignite.
Rags soaked with this solvent can present a fire hazard and should be stored in approved, covered
containers. Improperly stored rags can spontaneously combust under certain conditions.
Special Fire Fighting Procedures:
Emergency responders should wear self-contained breathing apparatus. Wear other protective gear as
conditions warrant. Keep unauthorized people out and try to contain spills or leaks if it can be done safely.
Material may float on water, avoid spreading the fire.
Section 5: Physical Hazards
Stability: Stable Conditions to Avoid: Heat, spark, and open flame
Incompatibility: Strong Oxidizing Agents
Hazardous Decomposition: Combustion will produce Carbon Monoxide, Carbon Dioxide and nitrogen-
oxygen compounds.
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur
Section 6: Potential health Effects
Eye Contact:
May cause immediate or delayed irritation. Irritation may show up as redness and/or swelling.
Skin Contact:
Repeated or prolonged contact with skin may produce redness, irritation and/or dryness. May
cause or aggravate dermatitis or other existing skin condition.
Inhalation:
Avoid prolonged inhalation of vapors. This product may be considered a low health hazard unless
inhaled at very high concentrations. Acute or chronic exposure to vapors or spray mist may cause
nausea, headaches, and/or nose and throat irritation. Extremely high concentrations may lead to a
loss of consciousness and convulsions followed by death.
Ingestion:
Ingestion may cause irritation to the mouth, esophagus, and/or stomach. Aspiration may lead to
chemical pneumonitis, which is characterized by pulmonary edema and hemorrhage and may be
fatal.
Signs or Overexposure:
Irritation of eyes, nose, throat, digestive tract. Diarrhea, vomiting, nausea and /or nervous system
depression.
Pre-existing Conditions Aggravated:
Skin and respiratory disorders. Alcoholism, kidney, liver, heart and nervous system disorders.

Glycol Ether EB major effect in acute and subchronic animal studies was intravascular red cell hemolysis.
Secondary effects were spleen and liver enlargement and nephropathy. These studies have not been shown
relevant to humans. Effects on embryo/fetus were only evident in the presence of maternal toxicity. NTP
reported testicular weight changes in rats and mice ingesting 6000 ppm on a 13 week drinking water study.
Section 7: First Aid Measures
Eye Contact:
Flush with warm water for 15 minutes. Seek medical attention.
Skin Contact:
Wash with soap and water. Remove any contaminated clothing and launder before reusing. If
irritation persists, seek medical attention.
Inhalation:
Remove exposed individual to fresh air, protecting yourself. Restore breathing if necessary.
Contact a physician.
Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. Get medical attention immediately. DO NOT GIVE AN UNCONCIOUS
OR CONVULSING PERSON ANYTHING BY MOUTH!
Section 8: Accidental Release Measures
In case of spill or release, avoid vapors and ignition sources. Use appropriate protective equipment. Stop
and contain the discharge if it can be done safely. Keep out of drains and waterways. Handle with trained
personnel only. Notify authorities as required by law.
Section 9: Exposure Controls and Personal Protection
Protective Equipment:
Use synthetic gloves if necessary to prevent excessive skin contact. Use a NIOSH approved
respirator if ventilation is not adequate to maintain exposures below TLV levels. Do not wear
contacts and always use ANSI approved safety glasses or splash shield.
Other Suggested Equipment:
Eye wash station and emergency showers should be available. Spill containment equipment should
be available.
Discretion Advised:
Chemical Solvents Inc. takes no responsibility for determining what measures are required for
personal protection in any specific application. The general information should be used with
discretion.
