Section 3. HAZARDOUS IDENTIFICATION
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
EYE:
May cause mild eye irritation. Symptoms include stinging, tearing, and redness.
SKIN:
May cause mild skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated contact may dry the skin. Symptoms may include
redness, burning, drying and cracking of skin, and skin burns. 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, airways) central nervous system depression (dizziness, drowsiness, weakness,
fatigue, nausea, headache, unconsciousness) and other central nervous system effects.
TARGET ORGAN EFFECTS:
Exposure to this material (or a component) has been found to cause kidney damage in male rats. The
mechanism by which this toxicity occurs is specific to the male rat and the kidney effects are not
expected to occur in humans.
DEVELOPMENTAL INFORMATION:
Based on the available information, risk to the fetus from maternal exposure to this material cannot
be assessed.

CANCER INFORMATION:
Based on the available information, this material cannot be classified with regard to carcinogenicity. This
material is not listed as a carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, the National
Toxicology Program, or the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
OTHER HEALTH EFFECTS:
No data
PRIMARY ROUTE(S) OF ENTRY:
Inhalation, skin absorption, skin contact, eye contact and ingestion.
Section 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. Wash exposed area with soap and water. If 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 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:
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. Preexisting
disorders of the following organs (or organ systems) may be aggravated by exposure to this material:
Skin, lung (for example, asthma-like conditions).
Section 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FLASHPOINT:
120.0 - 130.0 F
(48.8 - 54.4 C)
TCC
EXPLOSIVE LIMIT:
(for product) Lower .7 Upper 5.0%
AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE:
No data
HAZARDOUS PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION:
May form: Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, various hydrocarbons.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS:
Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along the ground or be moved by ventilation and ignited by
heat, pilot lights, other flames and ignition sources at locations distant from material handling point.
Never use welding or cutting torch on or near drum (even empty) because product (even just residue) can
ignite explosively. During a fire, irritating or toxic decomposition products may be generated.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
Regular foam, carbon dioxide and dry chemical.
FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS:
Water may be used to keep fire-exposed containers cool until fire is out. Wear a self-contained breathing
apparatus with a full facepiece operated in the positive pressure demand mode with appropriate turn-out
gear and chemical resistant personal protective equipment. Refer to the personal protective equipment
section of this MSDS.

Section 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
SMALL SPILL:
Eliminate all sources of ignition such as flares, flames (including pilot lights) and electrical sparks. Absorb
liquid on vermiculite, floor absorbent or other absorbent material. Persons not wearing proper personal
protective equipment should be excluded from area of spill.
LARGE SPILL:
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. Persons not wearing protective equipment should be excluded
from area of spill until clean-up has been completed. Eliminate all ignition sources (flares, flames
including pilot lights, electrical sparks).
Section 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. Emergency eyewash fountains and safety showers should be
available in the immediate vicinity of potential exposure. Hydrocarbon solvents are basically
non-conductors of electricity and can become electrostatically 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.
STORAGE:
Keep containers closed when not in use. Store in closed containers in a dry, well-ventilated area. Do
not store near extreme heat, open flame or sources of ignition. Do NOT store in confined areas such
as trailers.
Section 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 workplace 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.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS:
Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust) ventilation to maintain exposure below TLV(s).
