SECTION III - PHYSICAL/CHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Boiling Point: 248?- 396癋 Specific Gravity (H20=1): 0.9900 - 1.1827
Vapor Pressure (mmhg): N/D Melting Point: N/D
Vapor Density (Air=1): > 1 Evaporation Rate: > 1
Solubility in Water: Unknown (Butyl Acetate=1)
Appearance and Odor: Opaque liquid, solvent odor
SECTION IV - FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA
Flash Point (Method Used): 70癋 (TCC)
Flammable Limits: LEL - 0.8% UEL - 13.1%
Extinguishing Media: Carbon Dioxide, dry chemical, foam
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Full protective equipment including SCBA to avoid inhalation of vapors should
be used. Water spray should not be used except to keep down vapors or cool closed containers to prevent buildup of
pressure. If water is used, fog nozzles are preferred. When fighting a fire involving aluminum paste, do not use a
water stream or halogenated extinguishing agents.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Keep containers tightly closed. Isolate from heat, sparks, and open flame.
Closed containers may explode when exposed to extreme heat. Product vapors are heavier than air and may travel a
long distance to a source of ignition and flash back.
SECTION V - REACTIVITY DATA
Stability: Unstable ( ) Stable (X)
Conditions to Avoid: Contact with heat, sparks, and open flame.
Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid): Strong oxidizing agents. Aluminum flake can react violently with
halogenated hydrocarbons including halogenated fire extinguishing agents. Aluminum flake can also react with some
acids, caustic solutions.
Hazardous Decomposition or Byproducts (Thermal): May product Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide, and
unidentifiable organic materials.
Hazardous Polymerization: May Occur ( ) Will Not Occur (X)

SECTION VI - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Route(s) of Entry: Inhalation (Y) Skin (Y) Eye (Y) Ingestion (Y)
Health Hazards (Acute and Chronic): Liquid or vapor may be irritating to skin, eyes, throat, or lungs. Intentional
misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents of this product can be harmful or fatal. Chronic
overexposure to a component or components in this material has been found to cause the following effects in
laboratory animals: anemia and damage to the kidney, eye, and liver. Chronic overexposure has also been suggested
as a cause of cardiac abnormalities in humans. Reports have associated repeated and prolonged overexposure to
solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage.
Carcinogenicity: NTP (N/D) IARC Monographs (N/D) OSHA Regulated (N/D)
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure: Eye - May cause severe irritation. Skin - May cause irritation. Prolonged or
repeated contact may cause drying, cracking, or irritation of skin. 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. Prolonged inhalation of dusts
containing free silica may result in the development of a disabling pulmonary fibrosis (lung disease) known as
silicosis. Ingestion - Moderately toxic. May cause stomach discomfort, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and narcosis.
Aspiration of material into the lungs if swallowed or if vomiting occurs can cause chemical pneumonitis, which can
be fatal.
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure: N/D
Emergency and First Aid Procedures: Eye - Immediately flush with large quantities of water for 15 minutes. Skin
- Remove contaminated clothing and wash affected area with soap and water. Seek medical attention. Launder
clothing before reuse. Inhalation - Move person to fresh air. If breathing stops, apply artificial respiration. Seek
medical attention. Ingestion - SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY! The decision to induce vomiting
or not 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 and 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癋) 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): If exposure limits are exceeded for components listed in Section II, a
NIOSH/OSHA-approved respirator suitable for these components is recommended.
Ventilation: Local Exhaust & Mechanical - Provide sufficient ventilation, in volume and pattern, to keep air
contamination below current 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: Appropriate impervious clothing is recommended if prolonged or
repeated contact is likely.
Work/Hygiene Practices: Always follow good housekeeping and personal hygiene practices.
