Section 3 - Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview: FLAMMABLE liquid and vapor. Contains SILICA which can cause cancer. Risk of
Cancer depends on duration and level of exposure.
Effects Of Overexposure - Eye Contact: May cause eye irritation.
Effects Of Overexposure - Skin Contact: Direct skin contact may cause irritation. May be harmful if
absorbed through the skin.
Effects Of Overexposure - Inhalation: Harmful if inhaled, may affect the brain or nervous system, causing
dizziness, headache, or nausea. May cause nose and throat irritation.
Page 1 of 6
Effects Of Overexposure - Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed.
Effects Of Overexposure - Chronic Hazards: Crystalline silica is known to cause silicosis, a noncancerous
lung disease. Exposure is by route of inhalation. If material is in a liquid matrix it is unlikely to be inhaled.
Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain
and nervous system damage.
Primary Route(s) Of Entry: Skin Contact, Skin Absorption, Inhalation, Ingestion, Eye Contact
Medical Conditions Prone to Aggravation by Exposure: If you have a condition that could be aggravated
by exposure to dust or organic vapors, see a physician prior to use.
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
First Aid - Eye Contact: If material gets into eyes, flush with water immediately for 15 minutes. Consult a
physician.
First Aid - Skin Contact: In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water while removing
contaminated clothing and shoes. Launder clothing before reuse. If rash or irritation develops, consult a
physician.
First Aid - Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. Administer oxygen if necessary. Consult a physician if
symptoms persist or exposure was severe.
First Aid - Ingestion: If swallowed do not induce vomiting. Seek immediate medical attention.
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point, F: 56F (13C) Lower Explosive Limit, %: 1.0
Upper Explosive Limit, %: 36.0
(Setaflash)
Extinguishing Media: Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Foam, Water Fog
Unusual Fire And Explosion Hazards: Flammable Liquid. Vapors are heavier than air and will accumulate.
Vapors will form explosive concentrations with air. Vapors travel long distances and will flashback. Use
mechanical ventilation when necessary to keep percent vapor below the "Lower Explosion Level" (LEL).
Eliminate all ignition sources. Keep away from sparks, open flames and heat sources. All electric equipment
and installations should be made and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code. In areas
where explosion hazards exist, workers should be required to use non-ferrous tools and to wear conductive
and non-sparking shoes.
Special Firefighting Procedures: Flammable. Cool fire-exposed containers using water spray.
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
Steps To Be Taken If Material Is Released Or Spilled: Eliminate all ignition sources. Handling equipment
must be grounded to prevent sparking. Evacuate the area of unprotected personnel. Wear appropriate
personal protection clothing and equipment. Follow exposure controls/personal protection guidelines in Section
8. Contain and soak up residual with an aborbent (clay or sand). Take up absorbant material and seal tightly
for proper disposal. Dispose of in accordance with local, state and federal regulations. Refer to Section 15 for
SARA Title III and CERCLA information.

Section 7 - Handling And Storage
Handling: Avoid breathing vapors or spray mist. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Keep container
tightly closed when not in use. Wear personal protection equipment. Do not breathe vapors. Wash thoroughly
after handling. If pouring or transferring materials, ground all containers and tools. Do not weld, heat, cut or drill
on full or empty containers. Use only in accordance with Carboline application instructions, container label and
Product Data Sheet.
Storage: Keep away from heat, sparks, open flames and oxidizing agents. Keep containers closed. Store in a
cool, dry place with adequate ventilation.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Engineering Controls: Use explosion-proof ventilation when required to keep below health exposure
guidelines and Lower Explosion Limit (LEL).
Respiratory Protection: Use only with ventilation to keep levels below exposure guidelines listed in Section 2.
User should test and monitor exposure levels to ensure all personnel are below guidelines. If not sure, or not
able to monitor, use MSHA/NIOSH approved supplied air respirator. Follow all current OSHA requirements for
respirator use.
Skin Protection: Recommend impervious gloves and clothing to avoid skin contact. If material penetrates to
skin, change gloves and clothing. The use of protective creams may be beneficial to certain individuals.
Protective creams should be applied before exposure.
Eye Protection: Recommend safety glasses with side shields or chemical goggles to avoid eye contact.
Other protective equipment: Eye wash and safety showers should be readily available.
Hygienic Practices: Wash with soap and water before eating, drinking, smoking, applying cosmetics, or using
toilet facilities. Use of a hand cleaner is recommended. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Leather
shoes can absorb and allow hazardous materials to pass through. Check shoes carefully after soaking before
reuse.
