Potential Health Effects
Eye:
May cause mild eye irritation. Symptoms include stinging, tearing, and redness.
Skin:
Can cause skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated contact may dry the skin. Symptoms
may include redness, burning, and drying and cracking of skin, burns, and other skin damage. Passage
of this material into the body through the skin is possible, but it is unlikely that this would result in harmful
effects during safe handling and use.

_________________________________________________________________________________
Swallowing:
Swallowing small amounts of this material during normal handling is not likely to cause harmful effects.
Swallowing large amounts may be harmful. This material can get into the lungs during swallowing or
vomiting. This results in lung inflammation and other lung injury.
Inhalation:
Breathing of vapor or mist is possible. Breathing small amounts of this material during normal handling is
not likely to cause harmful effects. Breathing large amounts may be harmful. Symptoms usually occur at
air concentrations higher than the recommended exposure limits (See Section 8).
Symptoms of Exposure:
Signs and symptoms of exposure to this material through breathing, swallowing, and/or passage of the
material through the skin may include: stomach or intestinal upset (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea), irritation
(nose, throat, airway), central nervous system depression (dizziness, drowsiness, weakness, fatigue,
nausea, headache, unconsciousness), temporary changes in mood and behavior, loss of appetite, loss of
coordination, irregular heartbeat, narcosis (dazed or sluggish feeling).
Target Organ Effects:
Mild, reversible kidney effects, central nervous system damage.
Developmental Information:
There are no data available for assessing risk to the fetus from maternal exposure to this material.
Cancer Information:
There is no information available. The chance of this material causing cancer is unknown.
Other Health Effects:
No Data.
Primary Route (s) of Entry:
Inhalation, skin absorption, skin contact, eye contact, ingestion.
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eyes:
If symptoms develop, move individual away from exposure and into fresh air. Flush eyes gently with
water while holding eyelids apart. If symptoms persist or there is any visual difficulty, seek medical
attention.
Skin:
Remove contaminated clothing. Flush exposed area with large amounts of water. If skin is damaged,
seek immediate medical attention. If skin is not damaged and symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
Launder clothing before reuse.
Swallowing:
Seek medical attention. If individual is drowsy or unconscious, do not give anything by mouth; place
individual on the left side with the head down. Contact a physician, medical facility, or poison control
center for advice about whether to induce vomiting. If possible, do not leave individual unattended.

Inhalation:
If symptoms develop, move individual away from exposure and into fresh air. If symptoms persist, seek
medical attention. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. Keep person warm and quiet; seek
immediate medical attention.
Note to Physicians:
Inhalation of high concentrations of this material, as could occur in enclosed spaces or during deliberate
abuse, my be associated with cardiac arrhythmias. Sympathomimetic drugs may initiate cardiac
arrhythmias in persons exposed to this material. This material is an aspiration hazard. Potential danger
from aspiration must be weighed against possible oral toxicity (See Section 3 ?Swallowing) when
deciding whether to induce vomiting. Pre-existing disorders of the following organs (or organ systems)
may be aggravated by exposure to this material: skin, lung (for example, asthma-like conditions).
Individuals with pre-existing heart disorders may be more susceptible to arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats)
if exposed to high concentrations of this material.
5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FIRE Flash Point:
15 F (-10 C) TCC
Explosive Limit:
(for product) Lower 1.1 Upper 6.7%
Autoignition Temperature:
399.0 F (203.8 C)
Hazardous Products of Combustion:
May form: carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, various hydrocarbons.
Fire and Explosion Hazards:
Material is highly volatile and readily gives off vapors, which may travel along the ground or be moved by
ventilation and ignited by pilot lights, other flames, sparks, heaters, smoking, electric motors, static
discharge, or other ignition sources at locations distant from material handling point. Never use welding
or cutting torch on or near drums (even empty) because product (even just residue) can ignite
explosively.
Extinguishing Media:
Regular foam, carbon dioxide, dry chemical.
Fire Fighting Instructions:
Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus with a full-face piece operated in the positive pressure
demand mode with appropriate turnout gear and chemical resistant personal protective equipment. Refer
to the personal protective equipment section of this MSDS.
NFPA Rating: Health - 1 Flammability -3 Reactivity -0

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Small Spill:
Absorb liquid on vermiculite, floor absorbent or other absorbent material.
Large Spill:
Eliminate all ignition sources (flares, flames including pilot lights, electrical sparks). Persons not wearing
protective equipment should be excluded from area of spill until clean up has been completed. Stop spill
at source. Prevent from entering drains, sewers, streams or other bodies of water. Prevent from
spreading. If runoff occurs, notify authorities as required. Pump or vacuum transfer-spilled product to
clean containers for recovery. Absorb unrecoverable product. Transfer contaminated absorbent, soil and
other materials to containers for disposal. Prevent run-off to sewers, streams or other bodies of water. If
run-off occurs, notify proper authorities as required, that a spill has occurred.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling:
Containers of this material may be hazardous when emptied. Since emptied containers retain product
residues (vapor, liquid, and/or solid), all hazard precautions given in the data sheet must be observed. All
five-gallon pails and larger metal containers, including tank cars and tank trucks, should be grounded
and/or bonded when material is transferred. Hydrocarbon solvents are basically non-conductors of
electricity and can become electrostatic ally charged during mixing, filtering or pumping at high flow rates.
If this charge reaches a sufficiently high level, sparks can form that may ignite the vapors of flammable
liquids. WARNING: Sudden release of hot organic chemical vapors or mists from process equipment
operating at elevated temperature and pressure, or sudden ingress of air into vacuum equipment, may
result in ignitions without the presence of obvious ignition sources. Published "autoignition" or "ignition"
temperature values cannot be treated as safe operating temperatures in chemical processes without
analysis of the actual process conditions. Any use of this product in elevated temperature processes
should be thoroughly evaluated to establish and maintain safe operating conditions.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Eye Protection:
Chemical splash goggles in compliance with OSHA regulations are advised; however, OSHA regulations
also permit other type safety glasses. Consult your safety representative.
Skin Protection:
Wear resistant gloves (consult your safety equipment supplier). To prevent repeated or prolonged skin
contact, wear impervious clothing and boots....
Respiratory Protections:
If working exposure limit(s) of product or any component is exceeded (see exposure guidelines), a
NIOSH/MSHA approved air supplied respirator is advised in absence of proper environmental control.
OSHA regulations also permit other NIOSH/MSHA respirators (negative pressure type) under specified
conditions (see your industrial hygienist). Engineering or administrative controls should be implemented
to reduce exposure.
