Product ID: 400.0002001.076
Page 1 of 7
Emergency Overview:
This section not in use.
This product contains ingredients that may contribute to the following potential acute health effects:
Inhalation Effects:
Harmful if inhaled. May affect the brain, nervous system, or respiratory system, causing dizziness, headache,
nausea or respiratory irritation.
Eye Contact:
Causes eye irritation.
Skin Contact:
May cause moderate skin irritation.
Acute Ingestion:
None known
Other Effects:
May cause kidney damage. May cause liver damage.
This product contains ingredients that may contribute to the following potential chronic health effects:
Notice: Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain
and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be
harmful or fatal. Prolonged and/or repeated contact can result in skin irritation. May cause skin drying with prolonged
exposure. Possible cancer hazard. Contains ingredients which may cause cancer based on animal data. Risk of
cancer depends on duration and level of exposure.
See Section 11 for toxicological information about Mutagens, Teratogens and Carcinogens.
If this section is blank, no information is available.
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Inhalation:
If affected by inhalation, move victim to fresh air. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
Eye Contact:
In case of contact, or suspected contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and get
medical attention immediately after flushing.
Skin Contact:
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation persists get
medical attention. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean
contaminated shoes.
Ingestion:
If swallowed, contact medical personnel immediately to determine best course of action.
Medical conditions aggravated by exposure: Any respiratory or skin condition.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash point (Fahrenheit): -31?F ( -35?C) TCC/PM
Lower explosive limit: 2%
Upper explosive limit: 13 %
Autoignition temperature: Not available. ?F ( ?C)
Sensitivity to impact: No.
Product ID: 400.0002001.076
Page 2 of 7
Sensitivity to static discharge: Subject to static discharge hazards. Please see bonding
and grounding information in Section 7.
Hazardous combustion products: See Section 10.
Unusual fire and explosion hazards:
Contaminated rags, wipes, saw dust, etc., may catch fire spontaneously. Store waste under water in closed metal
containers until disposed of in compliance with applicable regulations. Contains oxidizable materials.
Extinguishing media:
Carbon dioxide, dry chemical, foam and/or water fog.
Fire fighting procedures:
Use water spray to cool nearby containers and structures exposed to fire. Firefighters should be equipped with self-
contained breathing apparatus and turn out gear.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Action to be taken if material is released or spilled:
Ventilate area. Avoid breathing of vapors. Use self-containing breathing apparatus or airmask for large spills in a
confined area. Wipe, scrape or soak up in an inert material and put in a container for disposal. See section 5,
"Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards", for proper container and storage procedures. Remove sources of ignition.
Remove with inert absorbent and non sparking tools. Avoid contact with eyes.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions to be taken in handling and storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flames. Keep container closed when not in use. Do not store above 120 degrees
F. (49 degrees C). Based on flash point and vapor pressure, suitable storage should be provided in accordance with
OSHA regulation 1910.106, Ontario OH&S regulation 851 section 22. Empty containers may contain product residue,
including flammable or explosive vapors. Do not cut, puncture or weld on or near container. All label warnings must
be observed until the container has been commercially cleaned or reconditioned. If the product is used near or above
the flashpoint, an ignition hazard may be present. Activities, uses, or operations which liberate vapor (such as mixing
or free fall of liquids) may also present an ignition hazard. Please ensure containers and other interconnected
equipment are properly bonded and grounded at all times.
8. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND EXPOSURE CONTROLS
Personal Protective Equipment
Eye and face protection:
Avoid contact with eyes. Wear chemical goggles if there is the possibility of contact or splashing in the eye.
Skin protection:
Appropriate chemical resistant gloves should be worn.To prevent skin contact wear protective clothing covering all
exposed areas.
Respiratory protection:
If exposure cannot be controlled below applicable limits, use the appropriate NIOSH approved respirator such as an
air purifying respirator with organic vapor cartridge and dust/mist filter. Consult the respirator manufacturer's literature
to ensure that the respirator will provide adequate protection. Read and follow all respirator manufacturer's
instructions.
Ventilation
Required when spraying or applying in confined area. Ventilation equipment should be explosion proof. Eliminate
ignition sources.
