Emergency Overview 2

Summary of risks: This material contains a volatile solvent. May be irritating to the eyes and respiratory 1
F
tract. Overexposure may cause central nervous system depression. Vapors can reduce the amount of oxygen 0

available for breathing. PPE
Sec. 8
Potential Health Effects
Eye Contact: May cause irritation, pain and possible corneal damage.
Skin Contact: May be absorbed through the skin. Repeated or prolonged skin contact may cause dryness, reddening, itching and
inflammation. May cause allergic reactions in some individuals. Frequent daily exposure could conceivably result in the de-
fatting of the skin leading to dermatitis.
Inhalation: May irritate the respiratory tract and mucous membranes. Exposure over occupational limits causes central nervous
system depression ranging from dizziness to unconsciousness, narcosis, coma, respiratory failure and death.

MSDS No. 570H-2-UV Nyetact 570H-2-UV Revision: 1/10/01
Ingestion: Ingestion of large amounts causes symptoms similar to those listed under "Inhalation".
Primary Route(s) of Entry: Inhalation, eye contact, skin contact.
Target Organs: Respiratory passages, eyes, skin.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Long-Term Exposure: Skin contact may aggravate an existing dermatitis.
Carcinogenicity: IARC, NTP, and OSHA do not list Nyetact 570H-2-UV or its ingredients as carcinogens.
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
Eye Contact: Flush thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes. Get immediate medical attention.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash exposed area with soap and water. Get medical attention if symptoms
persists.
Inhalation: If symptoms develop, remove affected person from source of exposure into fresh air. Get immediate medical
attention. If person is not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen if available.
Ingestion: Get immediate medical attention. Do not induce vomiting unless instructed to do so by a physician.
Section 5 - Fire-Fighting Measures
Flash Point: None
Flash Point Method: Setaflash CC
Lower Flammability Limit (LFL): None
Upper Flammability Limit (UFL): None
Autoignition Temperature: Not Determined
OSHA/NFPA Flammable/Combustible Liquid Classification: N/A
Extinguishing Media: CO2, dry chemical, foam. Water spray may be used to keep fire exposed containers and structures cool,
and to protect personnel.
Unusual Fire or Explosion Hazards: Extreme conditions of heat may produce decomposition products. Vapors may
accumulate in low and confined areas.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Hydrogen fluoride, perfluoroisobutylene, carbon monoxide as well as small amounts of
other toxic fumes.
Fire-Fighting Instructions: Wear a NIOSH approved positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus with full protective
clothing. Do not release runoff from fire control methods to sewers or waterways.
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
Spill Response: Observe precautions from other sections. Eliminate all ignition sources. Ventilate area, especially low places
where heavy vapors may collect. Contain any spill with dikes or absorbents to prevent migration and entry into drains, sewers
or bodies of water. Take up small spills with absorbent. Large spills may be taken up with pump or vacuum and finished off
with absorbent. Wipe or scrape up saturated absorbent and place it in a proper container for disposal. Wash walking surfaces
thoroughly to reduce slipping hazard. Follow applicable OSHA (29 CFR 1910.120), state and local regulations.
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
Handling Precautions: Exercise ordinary care in handling industrial lubricants. Avoid breathing vapors and mists. Avoid
contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid contamination of cigarettes or other tobacco products. Wash hands thoroughly
before eating or smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and clean before reuse. Users should be alert to the possibility that
very small percentages of the population may display unexpected allergic reactions to otherwise innocuous industrial lubricants
and raw materials.
Storage Requirements: Do not store in open or unlabeled containers. Store in well-ventilated, cool, dry areas away from heat,
sources of ignition and incompatibles.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Eye Protection: Avoid eye contact. Wear safety glasses or chemical goggles in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.133.
Skin Protection: Avoid skin contact. Wear chemical protective gloves. Depending upon conditions of use, additional protection
may be necessary such as a face shield, apron, etc.
Ventilation: Local exhaust ventilation is required at point of use if airborne concentrations are at or above recognized health and
safety levels. Ventilation and other forms of engineering controls are the preferred means for controlling chemical exposures.
Respiratory Protection: Avoid breathing vapors and mists. If exposure limits are exceeded or if irritation or symptoms are
experienced, NIOSH approved respiratory protection should be worn. Normally, a NIOSH approved respirator for organic
vapors is generally acceptable. For high concentrations and for oxygen-deficient atmospheres, use a NIOSH approved air-
supplied respirator. Respiratory protection must be provided in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134.
Safety Stations: Make emergency eyewash stations, safety/quick-drench showers, and washing facilities available in work area.
Other Precautionary Information: Never eat, drink, or smoke in work areas. Practice good personal hygiene after using this
material, especially before eating, drinking, smoking, using the toilet, or applying cosmetics.
