6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES: Uncontrolled releases should be responded to by
trained personnel using pre-planned procedures. Proper protective equipment should be used. Eliminate all sources of
ignition. Use non-sparking tools. Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Stop leak if you can do it without risk.
Avoid allowing water runoff to contact spilled material. The atmosphere must at least 19.5 percent Oxygen before nonemergency personnel can be allowed in the area without Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus. Spills on certain surfaces
may be slippery and present a slip hazard.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Proper protective equipment should be used.
Small Spills: Wear rubber gloves, splash goggles, and appropriate body protection.
Large Spills: Minimum Personal Protective Equipment should be rubber gloves, rubber boots, face shield, and Tyvek suit.
Minimum level of personal protective equipment for releases in which the level of oxygen is less than 19.5% or is unknown
must be Level B: Full-face or half-mask, air purifying respirators (NIOSH approved); hooded chemical-resistant clothing
(overalls; two-piece chemical-splash suit; disposable chemical-resistant overalls); coveralls; gloves, outer, chemical-resistant;
gloves, inner, chemical-resistant; boots (outer), chemical-resistant steel toe and shank; boot-covers, outer, chemical-resistant
(disposable); hard hat; escape mask; face shield.
METHODS FOR CLEAN-UP AND CONTAINMENT: Eliminate all sources of ignition before cleanup begins.
Small Spills: Absorb spilled liquid with paper towels or other suitable absorbent materials. Wash contaminated area with soap and
water, absorb with paper towels, and rinse with water. Place spill material and all clean-up materials in appropriate container for
disposal.
Large Spills: Dike spill to prevent spread. Absorb spill with polypads or other non-reactive material. Monitor area for combustible
vapor levels from potential and confirm levels are bellow exposure limits given in Section 8 (Exposure Controls-Personal
Protection), if applicable, before non-response personnel are allowed into the spill area. Place spill material and all clean-up
materials in appropriate container for disposal. Decontaminate area thoroughly.
All Spills: Place all spill residue in a double plastic bag or other containment and seal. Decontaminate the area thoroughly. Do not
mix with wastes from other materials. Dispose of in accordance with applicable Federal, State, and local procedures (see Section
13, Disposal Considerations). For spills on water, contain, minimize dispersion and collect. Dispose of recovered material and
report spill per regulatory requirements.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS: Avoid release to the environment. Run-off water may be contaminated by other
materials and should be contained to prevent possible environmental damage. Spills on water can cover water surface
and cause oxygen-deprivation in the aquatic environment, as well as coat marine life. All effort must be made to avoid
spills to the marine environment.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT:
The following information on appropriate Personal Protective Equipment is provided to assist employers in complying with
regulations found in U.S. OSHA 29 CFR Subpart I (beginning at 1910.132), equivalent standards of Canada (including CSA
Standard Z94.4-02 and CSA Standard Z94.3-02) or standards of EU member states (including EN 529:2005 for respiratory PPE,
CEN/TR 15419:2006 for hand protection, and CR 13464:1999 for face/eye protection). Please reference applicable regulations
and standards for relevant details.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Maintain airborne contaminant concentrations below exposure limits listed in this section, if
applicable. Use a NIOSH air purifying respirator with amine/organic vapor/high-efficiency particulate (HEPA) filter cartridges
when exposure is likely. If respiratory protection is needed, use only protection authorized in the U.S. Federal OSHA Respiratory
Protection Standard (29 CFR 1910.134) and equivalent U.S. State standards, Canadian CSA Standard Z94.4-93 and the
European Standard EN 529:2005 and Respiratory Protection Standards of EU member states. Oxygen levels below 19.5% are
considered IDLH by OSHA. In such atmospheres, use of a full-facepiece pressure/demand SCBA or a full facepiece, supplied air
respirator with auxiliary self-contained air supply is required under OSHA’s Respiratory Protection Standard (1910.134-1998). The

ALL WORK PRACTICES MUST BE AIMED AT ELIMINATING ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINATION.
MOBILITY: This product has not been tested for mobility in soil; it is expected to be highly mobile. The following
information is available for the main solvent components.
GLYCOL ETHER:
The Koc of this compound is estimated as 67, using a log Kow of 0.83 and a regression-derived equation. According to a classification scheme, this estimated Koc value
suggests that this material is expected to have high mobility in soil.
ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL:
The Koc of this compound is estimated as 25, using a measured log Kow of 0.05 and a regression-derived equation. According to a classification scheme, this estimated
Koc value suggests that this material is expected to have very high mobility in soil.
PERSISTENCE AND BIODEGRADABILITY: No specific data are available this product. The following information is
available for the main solvent components.
GLYCOL ETHER:
If released to air, a vapor pressure of 0.88 mm Hg at 25°C indicates this compound will exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase material will be
degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 16 hours. If released to
soil, this material is expected to have high mobility based upon an estimated Koc of 67. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate
process based upon a Henry's Law constant of 1.60X10-6 atm-cu m/mole. If released into water, this material is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and
sediment based upon the estimated Koc. This compound reached 91% of its theoretical BOD in 14 days using an activated sludge inoculum. Therefore this compound
has the potential to biodegrade rapidly in water. Based upon this compound's estimated Henry's Law constant it is concluded that the volatilization of from water
surfaces may be an important fate process. The estimated volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 25 and 185 days, respectively. Hydrolysis is not
expected to be an important environmental fate process since this compound lacks functional groups that hydrolyze under environmental conditions.
ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL:
Based on a classification scheme, an estimated Koc value of 25, determined from a log Kow of 0.05 and a regression-derived equation, indicates that this compound is
expected to have very high mobility in soil. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process given a Henry's Law constant of 8.10X106 atm-cu m/mole. The potential for volatilization of from dry soil surfaces may exist based upon a vapor pressure of 45.4 mmHg. This compound is readily degraded
in aerobic systems; the range of half-lives for aerobic degradation using a sewage sludge inoculum are < 1 day to 48 days. This material has also been shown to be
readily degraded under anaerobic conditions. Volatilization from water surfaces is expected based upon a Henry's Law constant of 8.10X10-6 atm-cu m/mole. Using
this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method, volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 57 hours and 29 days, respectively. This material is
readily degraded in aerobic systems; the range of half-lives for aerobic degradation using a sewage sludge inoculum are < 1 day to 48 days. This compound has also
been shown to be readily degraded under anaerobic conditions. According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semi-volatile organic compounds in the
atmosphere, this material, which has a vapor pressure of 45.4 mm Hg at 25°C, is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase material
is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 3.2 days, calculated
from its rate constant of 5.07X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25°C.
BIO-ACCUMULATION POTENTIAL: This product has not been tested for bio-accumulation potential. The following
information is available for the main solvent components.
GLYCOL ETHER:
An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated for this compound, using an estimated log Kow of 0.83 and a regression-derived equation. According to a classification scheme,
this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low.
ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL:
An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated for Isopropanol, using a log Kow of 0.05 and a regression-derived equation. According to a classification scheme, this BCF
suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low.

This Material Safety Data Sheet is offered pursuant to OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard, 29 CFR, 1910.1200. Other government regulations must be reviewed for
applicability to this product. To the best of UVP’s knowledge, the information contained herein is reliable and accurate as of this date; however, accuracy, suitability or
completeness are not guaranteed and no warranties of any type, either express or implied, are provided. The information contained herein relates only to this specific product. If
this product is combined with other materials, all component properties must be considered. Data may be changed from time to time. Be sure to consult the latest edition.
DEFINITION OF TERMS
A large number of abbreviations and acronyms appear on a MSDS. Some of these, which are commonly used, include the following:
CAS #: This is the Chemical Abstract Service Number that uniquely identifies each
constituent.
EXPOSURE LIMITS IN AIR:
15-minute TWA exposure (unless otherwise specified) that shall not be exceeded at any
time during a workday.
NIOSH RELs: NIOSH’s Recommended Exposure Limits.
CEILING LEVEL: The concentration that shall not be exceeded during any part of the
working exposure.
DFG MAK Germ Cell Mutagen Categories: 1: Germ cell mutagens that have been
shown to increase the mutant frequency in the progeny of exposed humans. 2: Germ cell
mutagens that have been shown to increase the mutant frequency in the progeny of
exposed mammals. 3A: Substances that have been shown to induce genetic damage in
germ cells of human of animals, or which produce mutagenic effects in somatic cells of
mammals in vivo and have been shown to reach the germ cells in an active form. 3B:
Substances that are suspected of being germ cell mutagens because of their genotoxic
effects in mammalian somatic cell in vivo; in exceptional cases, substances for which
there are no in vivo data, but that are clearly mutagenic in vitro and structurally related to
known in vivo mutagens. 4: Not applicable (Category 4 carcinogenic substances are
those with non-genotoxic mechanisms of action. By definition, germ cell mutagens are
genotoxic. Therefore, a Category 4 for germ cell mutagens cannot apply. At some time in
the future, it is conceivable that a Category 4 could be established for genotoxic
substances with primary targets other than DNA [e.g. purely aneugenic substances] if
research results make this seem sensible.) 5: Germ cell mutagens, the potency of which
is considered to be so low that, provided the MAK value is observed, their contribution to
genetic risk for humans is expected not to be significant.
DFG MAK Pregnancy Risk Group Classification: Group A: A risk of damage to the
developing embryo or fetus has been unequivocally demonstrated. Exposure of pregnant
women can lead to damage of the developing organism, even when MAK and BAT
(Biological Tolerance Value for Working Materials) values are observed.
DFG MAK Pregnancy Risk Group Classification (continued): Group B: Currently
available information indicates a risk of damage to the developing embryo or fetus must
be considered to be probable. Damage to the developing organism cannot be excluded
when pregnant women are exposed, even when MAK and BAT values are observed.
Group C: There is no reason to fear a risk of damage to the developing embryo or fetus
when MAK and BAT values are observed. Group D: Classification in one of the groups
A–C is not yet possible because, although the data available may indicate a trend, they
are not sufficient for final evaluation.
IDLH: Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health. This level represents a concentration
from which one can escape within 30-minutes without suffering escape-preventing or
permanent injury.
LOQ: Limit of Quantitation.
MAK: Federal Republic of Germany Maximum Concentration Values in the workplace.
NE: Not Established. When no exposure guidelines are established, an entry of NE is
made for reference.
NIC: Notice of Intended Change.
NIOSH CEILING: The exposure that shall not be exceeded during any part of the
workday. If instantaneous monitoring is not feasible, the ceiling shall be assumed as a

EXPOSURE LIMITS IN AIR (continued):
PEL: OSHA's Permissible Exposure Limits. This exposure value means exactly the same
as a TLV, except that it is enforceable by OSHA. The OSHA Permissible Exposure
Limits are based in the 1989 PELs and the June, 1993 Air Contaminants Rule (Federal
Register: 58: 35338-35351 and 58: 40191). Both the current PELs and the vacated PELs
are indicated. The phrase, “Vacated 1989 PEL” is placed next to the PEL that was
vacated by Court Order.
SKIN: Used when a there is a danger of cutaneous absorption.
STEL: Short Term Exposure Limit, usually a 15-minute time-weighted average (TWA)
exposure that should not be exceeded at any time during a workday, even if the 8-hr
TWA is within the TLV-TWA, PEL-TWA or REL-TWA.
TLV: Threshold Limit Value. An airborne concentration of a substance that represents
conditions under which it is generally believed that nearly all workers may be repeatedly
exposed without adverse effect. The duration must be considered, including the 8-hour.
TWA: Time Weighted Average exposure concentration for a conventional 8-hr (TLV,
PEL) or up to a 10-hr (REL) workday and a 40-hr workweek.
WEEL: Workplace Environmental Exposure Limits from the AIHA.

form explosive mixtures with air and are readily dispersed in air. Flammable or
combustible dusts with representative diameter less than 420 microns (40 mesh).
Materials that burn with extreme rapidity, usually by reason of self-contained oxygen (e.g.
dry nitrocellulose and many organic peroxides). Solids containing greater than 0.5% by
weight of a flammable or combustible solvent are rated by the closed cup flash point of
the solvent. 4 Materials that will rapidly or completely vaporize at atmospheric pressure
and normal ambient temperature or that are readily dispersed in air and will burn readily.
Flammable gases. Flammable cryogenic materials. Any liquid or gaseous materials that
is liquid while under pressure and has a flash point below 22.8°C (73°F) and a boiling
point below 37.8°C (100°F) (i.e. Class IA liquids). Materials that ignite when exposed to
air, Solids containing greater than 0.5% by weight of a flammable or combustible solvent
are rated by the closed cup flash point of the solvent.
INSTABILITY HAZARD: 0 Materials that in themselves are normally stable, even under
fire conditions. Materials that have an instantaneous power density (product of heat of
reaction and reaction rate) at 250°C (482°F) below 0.01 W/mL. Materials that do not

capable of detonation or explosive decomposition or explosive reaction, but that require
a strong initiating source or that must be heated under confinement before initiation.
Materials that have an estimated instantaneous power density (product of heat of
reaction and reaction rate) at 250°C (482°F) at or above 100 W/mL and below 1000
W/mL. Materials that are sensitive to thermal or mechanical shock at elevated

normal temperatures and pressures. Materials that have an estimated instantaneous
power density (product of heat of reaction and reaction rate) at 250°C (482°F) of 1000
W/mL or greater.
FLAMMABILITY LIMITS IN AIR:
Much of the information related to fire and explosion is derived from the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA). Flash Point: Minimum temperature at which a liquid gives
off sufficient vapor to form an ignitable mixture with air near the surface of the liquid or
within the test vessel used. Autoignition Temperature: Minimum temperature of a solid,
liquid, or gas required to initiate or cause self-sustained combustion in air with no other
source of ignition. LEL: Lowest concentration of a flammable vapor or gas/air mixture that
will ignite and burn with a flame. UEL: Highest concentration of a flammable vapor or
gas/air mixture that will ignite and burn with a flame.
TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION:
Human and Animal Toxicology: Possible health hazards as derived from human data,
animal studies, or from the results of studies with similar compounds are presented. LD50:
Lethal Dose (solids & liquids) that kills 50% of the exposed animals. LC50: Lethal
Concentration (gases) that kills 50% of the exposed animals. ppm: Concentration
expressed in parts of material per million parts of air or water. mg/m3: Concentration
expressed in weight of substance per volume of air. mg/kg: Quantity of material, by
weight, administered to a test subject, based on their body weight in kg. TDLo: Lowest
dose to cause a symptom. TCLo: Lowest concentration to cause a symptom. TDo, LDLo,
and LDo, or TC, TCo, LCLo, and LCo: Lowest dose (or concentration) to cause lethal or
toxic effects. Cancer Information: IARC: International Agency for Research on Cancer.
NTP: National Toxicology Program. RTECS: Registry of Toxic Effects of Chemical
Substances. IARC and NTP rate chemicals on a scale of decreasing potential to cause
human cancer with rankings from 1 to 4. Subrankings (2A, 2B, etc.) are also used. Other
Information: BEI: ACGIH Biological Exposure Indices, represent the levels of
determinants which are most likely to be observed in specimens collected from a healthy
worker who has been exposed to chemicals to the same extent as a worker with
inhalation exposure to the TLV.
REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY INFORMATION:
A mutagen is a chemical which causes permanent changes to genetic material (DNA) such
that the changes will propagate through generation lines. An embryotoxin is a chemical which
causes damage to a developing embryo (i.e. within the first eight weeks of pregnancy in
humans), but the damage does not propagate across generational lines. A teratogen is a
chemical which causes damage to a developing fetus, but the damage does not propagate
across generational lines. A reproductive toxin is any substance which interferes in any way
with the reproductive process.
ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION:
EC: Effect concentration in water. BCF: Bioconcentration Factor, which is used to
determine if a substance will concentrate in life forms that consume contaminated plant
or animal matter. TLm: Median threshold limit. log KOW or log KOC: Coefficient of
Oil/Water Distribution is used to assess a substance’s behavior in the environment.
