OSHA FLAMMABILITY CLASS : N.ap
FLAMMABILITY INDEX (NFPA) : 0 Minimal
REACTIVITY INDEX (NFPA) : 1 Slight
HEALTH HAZARD (NFPA) : 2 Moderate
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA : Water fog (not a direct stream of water), foam, carbon dioxide,
dry chemical.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES
Wear protective clothing and use self-contained breathing apparatus. Use sand to contain burning
material.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS
Not flammable, however vapors can form explosive mixture with air. Decomposition (>250癈) and
combustion products will be hazardous.
SECTION V - HEALTH HAZARDS
ROUTE(S) OF ENTRY : Skin and/or eye contact, ingestion and inhalation.
PRIME HAZARD(S) : Harmful if swallowed -- may cause lung damage due to aspiration risk.
Irritation. Product vapors displace air and can cause asphyxiation
especially in confined spaces.
EFFECTS OF EXPOSURE
Acute : Skin, eye and respiratory tract irritant. At low concentration, inhalation of
vapors may cause headache, dizziness, nausea, loss of concentration and
irritation. At higher concentrations, inhalation may result in intoxication,
cardiac arrhythmia etc.
Chronic : Irritation, dryness/flaking of skin and dermatitis.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Inhalation : If symptoms are experienced, move victim to fresh air. Keep affected person
warm and at rest. If recovery is delayed or there are signs of distress, obtain
medical attention immediately.
Eye contact : Flush eyes with water for 15 minutes. Seek medical advice if any irritation
persists.
Skin contact : Immediately remove excess with a clean cloth and apply moisturising cream.

SECTION VI - REACTIVITY DATA
STABILITY : Stable but store below 30癈 due to low boiling point.
STABILITY CONDITIONS TO AVOID :
Avoid sources of ignition such as sparks, hot spots, welding, flames and cigarettes. Explosions may
result if in the flammable range. Non-explosive may yield toxic and/or corrosive decomposition
products.
INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID CONTACT WITH)
Strong oxidizing agents, acids and bases. Reactive metals i.e. powdered or freshly abraded
aluminum, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, zinc, barium and lithium shavings.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS
Gaseous combinations of carbon, hydrogen, chlorine, fluorine and oxygen may occur at elevated
temperatures.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION
Hazardous polymerization will not occur when stored and used as directed.
POLYMERIZATION CONDITIONS TO AVOID
N.ap
SECTION VII - SPILL AND LEAK PROCEDURES
SPILLAGE
Ventilate well and stop flow of liquid. Do not allow to enter water courses. Absorb with an inert
material (e.g. earth or sand). Sweep up and place into suitable labelled containers, seal and
dispose of properly.

SECTION IX - SAFE HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING AND STORAGE PRECAUTIONS
HANDLING
Avoid breathing vapors and contact with skin and eyes. Exercise caution when opening containers
which, because of the low boiling point contents, may be under pressure. Keep away from heat,
sparks and open flames.
STORAGE
If containers have been stored in direct sunlight or heated above the boiling point of the product,
cool to below the boiling point before opening. Overheating may cause containers to rupture.
Containers should be stored under cool, dry conditions. Empty containers will retain residue and
may be dangerous. Check all containers for leaks at regular intervals and before use.
HYGIENE PRACTICES
When using, do not eat, drink or smoke.
