Immediate (Acute) Health Effects by Route of Exposure
Can cause moderate respiratory irritation, dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea and headache.
Inhalation Irritation
Harmful! Can cause systemic damage (see 鈥淭arget Organs鈥?)
Inhalation Toxicity
Can cause moderate skin irritation, defatting, and dermatitis. Not likely to cause permanent damage.
Skin Contact
Continued or prolonged contact may irritate the skin and cause a skin rash (dermatitis).
Contact with the eye may cause moderate to severe eye injury. Eye contact may result in tearing and

6.0 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
7.0 HANDLING AND STORAGE
Exposure to the spilled material may be irritating or harmful. Follow personal protective equipment
Personal Precautions and
recommendations found in Section 8 of this MSDS. Additional precautions may be necessary based on
Equipment
special circumstances created by the spill including; the material spilled, the quantity of the spill, the
area in which the spill occurred. Also consider the expertise of employees in the area responding to the
spill.
Prevent the spread of any spill to minimize harm to human health and the environment if safe to do so.
Methods for Clean-Up
Wear complete and proper personal protective equipment following the recommendations of Section 8
at a minimum. Dike with suitable absorbent material like granulated clay. Gather and store in a sealed
container pending a waste disposal evaluation. Shut off ignition sources; including electrical equipment
and flames. Do not allow smoking in the area. Small spill (in incidental release): Wear complete and
proper personal protective equipment ventilate the area. Contain and absorb with granulated clay or
other absorbent material and put into properly labeled containers for disposal.
Handling Technical Measures Harmful or irritating material. Avoid contacting and avoid breathing the material. Use only in a well
ventilated area. Use spark-proof tools and explosion proof equipment.
and Precautions
Store in a cool dry ventilated location. Isolate from incompatible materials and conditions. Keep
Storage and Technical
container(s) closed. Keep away from source of ignition.

8.0 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
No exposure limits exist for the constituents of this product. Use local exhaust ventilation or other engi-
Engineering Measures
neering controls to minimize exposures and maintain operator comfort.
Respiratory protection may be required to avoid overexposure when handling this product. General or
Respiratory Protection
local exhaust ventilation is the preferred means of protection. Use a respirator if general room ventila-
tion is not available or sufficient to eliminate symptoms.
Wear chemically resistant safety glasses with safety glasses with side shields when handling this prod-
Eye Protection
uct. Wear additional eye protection such as chemical splash goggles and/or face shield when the possi-
bility exists for eye contact with splashing or spraying liquid, or airborne material. Do not wear contact
lenses. Have an eye wash station available.
Wear protective gloves. Inspect gloves for chemical break-through and replace at regular intervals.
Skin Protection
Clean protective equipment regularly. Wash hands and other exposed areas with mild soap and water
before eating, drinking, and when leaving work.
