Section III 鈥? Hazards Identification
Potential Health Effects
Eyes: May cause mild eye irritation.
Skin: May cause mild skin irritation.
Ingestion: May cause irritation of the mouth, throat, and gastrointestinal tract. Symptoms may
include salivation, pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
Inhalation: Inhalation of vapors or mist at high concentrations can cause respiratory tract irritation.
(Nose, throat, lungs)
Routes of Entry: Inhalation, skin contact, eye contact, ingestion.
Section IV 鈥揊irst Aid Measures
Eyes: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting upper and lower

Inhalation: Remove individual from exposure, keep warm and at rest. If breathing is labored, oxygen
should be administered by qualified personnel. Apply artificial respiration if breathing has ceased or
shows signs of failing. Obtain immediate medical attention.
Section V 鈥? Fire Fighting Measures
Flash Point and Method: >(200掳F)
Flammable Limits: 1.0 to 4.5
Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, chemical foam, water fog or spray. Do not use
solid water stream as it may scatter and spread fire.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and organic acids.
Fire Fighting Procedures: Isolate fuel supply from fire. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed
surfaces and containers. Avoid spreading burning liquid with water used for cooling purposes. Fire
fighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus in addition to emergency fire fighting
protective clothing.

Section VI鈥? Accidental Release Measures
Small Spill: Eliminate all ignition sources. Clean up spills wearing proper personal protective
equipment (see Section VIII). Contain and absorb spill with sand, earth, or other inert material. Wipe
up residue and place in a suitable container for disposal.
Large Spill: Eliminate all ignition sources. Evacuate and ventilate the area. Create a dike or trench
to contain materials. Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas. Clean-up
personnel should wear appropriate personal protection equipment. (See section VIII) Absorb with dry
chemical absorbent, earth, sand or any other inert material. Place in a chemical waste container.
Move to outside well-ventilated area away from ignition sources.
Special Protective Equipment: See Section VIII. Clean-up crews should always wear Personal
Protective Equipment.
Section VII 鈥? Handling and Storage
Handling: Wear proper personal protective equipment. Use in a well ventilated area. Avoid smoking,
bare lights, or ignition sources. Keep containers securely sealed when not in use. Avoid physical
damage to containers.
Storage: Keep container closed when not in use. Keep away from sources of ignition.
Storage Temperature: (55掳F) minimum to (120掳F) maximum

electrical spark. Use proper bonding and/or grounding procedures.
Comments: See Section X for more information on precautions concerning storage and handling of
this material.
Section VIII 鈥? Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
Engineering Controls: Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering
controls to control airborne levels below recommended exposure limits.
Personal Protective Equipment
Eyes and Face: Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles) and a face shield.
Skin: Use impervious gloves.
Respiratory: If adequate engineering controls are not feasible, an approved respirator must be worn
(type: mist, organic vapor).
