========================SECTION 4 FIRE AND EXPLOSION DATA ================================================
Flash point (closed up) >200F
Upper explosion limit (UEL) No Data
Lower explosion limit (LEL) No Data
Auto ignition Temperature No Data
Fire hazard classification (OSHA/NFPA): Class III.
Extinguishing Media: Ignition will give rise to a Class B fire. In case of large fire use: water spray,
alcohol foam. In case of small fire use : carbon dioxide (Co2), dry chemical, dry sand or limestone.
Special Fire fighting procedures: Firefighters should wear butyl rubber boots, gloves, and body suit and a self-
contained breathing apparatus
Unusual fire and explosion hazards: May generate toxic or irritating combustion products. Sudden reaction and
fire may result if product is mixed with an oxidizing agent. May generate carbon monoxide gas.
Personnel in vicinity and downwind should be evacuated.
========================SECTION 5 Reactivity DATA ========================================================
Chemical Stability: Stable at ambient temperatures. Coagulation may occur following freezing, thawing or boiling.
Conditions to avoid (if unstable): Not applicable
Incompatibility (materials to avoid): Mineral acids (i.e. sulfuric, phosphoric, etc.). Alkalis (i.e. Sodium or
Potassium Hydroxide etc.). Oxidizing agents (i.e. perchlorates, nitrates etc.). Sodium or Calcium
Hypochlorite. Reaction with peroxides may result in violent decomposition of peroxide possibly creating
an explosion.
Hazardous decomposition Products:(from burning, heating, reaction with other materials). Carbon monoxide in a fire.
Carbon Dioxide in a fire. Irritating and toxic fumes at elevated temperatures. Hazardous Polymerization
will not occur.

========================SECTION 6 TOXICOLOGICAL PROPERTIES ================================================
Acute Oral Toxicity (LD50, RAT) No Data
Acute Dermal Toxicity (LD50, RABBIT) No Data
Acute Inhalation Toxicity (LC50, RAT) No Data
Other Acute Effects No Data
Irritation Effects Data Irritation data based on estimates.
Eco-toxicity No data
Environmental fate No Data
Routes of Exposure
Ingestion
Inhalation
Exposure Standards
See Section 2 for exposure standards on ingredients. Maintain air contaminant concentrations in the
workplace at the lowest feasible levels.
Health hazards
Moderate eye irritant.
Mild skin irritant
Target Organs - liver, kidney, blood, Eye.
Signs and symptoms of exposure (acute effects)
Contact with eyes causes irritation, redness and discomfort which is transient. Contact with skin causes
mild irritation and discomfort. Inhalation of mists may cause irritation in the respiratory tract,
vomiting, headaches, asphyxia resulting in central nervous system effects. Repeated exposure to a highly
toxic material may produce general deterioration of health by an accumulation in one or many human organs.
Product is absorbed through the skin and may cause nausea, headache and general discomfort.
Signs and symptoms of exposure (possible longer term effects)
Repeated and/or prolonged exposures may result in: reduced pulmonary, blood, liver or kidney function or
Pneumoconiosis
Repeated and/or prolonged exposure to low concentrations of vapor may cause eye irritation which are transient.
Medical conditions generally aggravated by exposure: Eye disease
Carcinogens under OSHA, ACGIH, NIP, IARC, Other: This product contains no carcinogens in concentrations of 0.1
percent or greater.
========================SECTION 7 PREVENTATIVE MEASURES ======================================================
Eye protection: Splash-proof eye goggles. In emergency situations, use eye goggles with a full face
shield.
Hand Protection: Nitrile rubber gloves.
Respiratory Protection: Including but not limited to exhaust of fumes from interior of facility. A full faced
air supplied respirator approved by The National Institute for Occupational Safety
and Health (NIOSH) is recommended for confined/indoor applications or in emergency
conditions.
Protective Clothing: Long sleeved clothing
Hazards: Moderate eye irritant. Mild skin irritant.
Engineering controls: Maintain air concentrations in work spaces in accord with standards outlined in Sections
2&3.
Work and Hygienic Practices: Provide readily accessible eye wash stations and safety showers. Wash at the end of
each work shift and before eating, smoking or using toilet. When handling, do not eat,
drink, or smoke.
Other Emergency advice: Open enclosed spaces to outside atmosphere. Wear protective clothing, boots, gloves, and
eye protection.
Clean Up Procedures: If recovery is not feasible, admix with dry soil, sand or non-reactive absorbent and place
in an appropriate chemical waste container. Transfer to containers by suction, preparatory
for later disposal. Place in metal containers for recovery or disposal. Flush area with
water spray. Clean-up personnel must be equipped with self contained breathing apparatus
and butyl rubber protective clothing. For large spills, recover spilled material with a
vacuum truck.
Containment techniques: (removal of ignition sources, diking etc) Shut off or remove all ignition sources. Stop
the leak, if possible. Ventilate the space involved. Reduce vapor spreading with a water
spray. Construct a dike to prevent spreading (includes molten liquids until they freeze).
Storage: Keep away from: oxidizers. Keep in cool, dry, ventilated storage and in closed containers.
Product may partially freeze with extended exposure to cold temperatures. Store at
temperatures above 40F.
Other Precautions: Emergency showers and eye wash stations should be readily accessible.
Waste disposal: Comply with all federal, Provincial, State and Local regulations.

========================SECTION 8 FIRST AID MEASURES
=========================================================
Eye contact: Hold eyelids apart and immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Seek
medical advice.
Skin contact: Wash area with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Call physician if
irritation continues.
Inhalation: Move patient to fresh air. If breathing has stopped or labored give assisted respiration (eg.
mouth-to-mouth). Prevent aspiration of vomit. If breathing is difficult administer oxygen. Seek
medical advice.
Ingestion: If swallowed, call a physician immediately. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person.
