IV. FIRST AID MEASURES

GENERAL: In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice IMMEDIATELY.
EYE CONTACT: After initial flusing, remove any contact lenses and continue flushing for at least 15 minutes. Hold eyelids apart to ensure rinsing of the entire surface of the eye and lids with water. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
SKIN CONTACT: Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash affected area immediately with large amounts of soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
INHALATION: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. Get medical attention if cough or other symptoms develop.
INGESTION: Get immediate medical attention. Do not induce vomiting. Contact a physician. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If unconscious, treat for shock. Notify a physician or the nearest poison control center immediately. If conscious, have the person rinse his mouth with cold water. If unconscious and vomiting, turn the person to his side to avoid choking.

V. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

FLAMMABLE PROPERTIES: Flash Point: >108°F; Auto Ignition Temperature: Not Established
FLAMMABLE LIMITS IN AIR: LEL: 1.1 %; UEL: 5.0%; Sensitivity to Static Discharge: Slight; Combustion Products: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Water, Carbon dioxide, foam or dry powder.
FIRE & EXPLOSION HAZARDS: This product is considered combustible and is a fire hazard. It supports combustion and decomposes under fire conditions to give off toxic materials. Do not pour, spill or store near heat, spark sources or open flame. Extinguishing Media: Use foam, dry chemical, CO₂, or water.
FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS: As appropriate for surrounding materials/equipment. If electrical equipment is involved, the use of foam should be avoided. Use water spray to cool non-involved containers.
Fire Fighting Protective Equipment:: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus with a full-face piece operated in the positive pressure demand mode and full protective clothing (Bunker Gear) when fighting fires.

VI. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Major Spills:: For major spills call Chemtrec (800-424-9300).
Spills, Leaks, or Releases:: Remove all sources of ignition. Ventilate area. Absorb spill with absorbent material such as sawdust, vermiculite or sand, and place in a closed container. In case of large spill, dike the area to prevent this material from entering water systems or sewers.

VII. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling:: Avoid breathing aerosols, spray mists and heated vapors. Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact. (See Section 8—Exposure Control for details).
Storage Requirements:: Keep containers properly sealed when stored indoors, in a cool well-ventilated area. Keep contents away from moisture. Keep away form heat, sparks and open flame. Never use welding or cutting torch on or near any container (even empty) as an explosion can occur. Care should be taken to prevent moisture condensation in the container.
Storage Temperature:: Avoid storage above 100 ̊F.

VIII. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION

Preventative Measures:: Conditions of use, adequacy of engineering or other control measures, and actual exposures will dictate the need for specific protective devices at your workplace.
Work / Hygienic Practices:: Use good personal hygiene practices. Wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking, or using toilet facilities. Promptly remove soiled clothing and wash thoroughly before reuse. Shower after work, using plenty of soap and water. Open containers of food and beverages should be kept away from areas where the product is used or stored. Eating, drinking, smoking and application of cosmetics should be prohibited in areas where the product is being used.
Engineering Controls:: Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust) ventilation to maintain exposure below TLV(s). General ventilation is recommended. Additional local exhaust ventilation is recommended where vapors, mists, or aerosols may be released.
Eye Protection:: Wear protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles, per OSHA eye and face-protection regulations (29 CFR 1910.133). Contact lenses are not eye protection devices. Appropriate eye protection must be worn instead of, or in conjunction with contact lenses.
Skin Protection:: Wear chemical resistant gloves. Wear protective clothing to prevent skin contact. Keep exposed skin area to a minimum. Eye wash station and safety shower should be available.
Respiratory Protection:: If exposure can exceed the PEL/TLV, use only NIOSH/MSHA approved air purifying or supplied air respirator operated in a positive pressure mode per the NIOSH/OSHA occupational health guidelines for chemical hazards. If it is possible to generate significant levels of vapors or mists, a NIOSH approved or equivalent respirator is recommended.

XI. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

Potential Health Effects: Inhalation: Short-term inhalation toxicity is low. Breathing small amounts during normal handling is not likely to cause harmful effects. Breathing large amounts may be harmful. Symptoms are more likely seen at air concentrations exceeding the recommended exposure limits. Symptoms of exposure may include: Irritation (nose, throat, and respiratory tract), metallic taste in mouth, impaired coordination, confusion, CNS depression (dizziness, drowsiness, weakness, fatigue, nausea, headache, and unconsciousness).; Skin Contact: Exposure causes skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated exposure may dry the skin. Symptoms may include redness, burning, drying and cracking. Skin absorption is possible, but harmful effects are not expected from this route of exposure under normal conditions of handling and use.; Eye Contact: Exposure to liquid or vapor causes eye irritation. Symptoms may include stinging, tearing, and swelling. Ingestion: Single dose or oral toxicity is low. Swallowing small amounts during normal handling is not likely to cause harmful effects. Swallowing large amounts may be harmful.; Symptoms may include: Gastrointestinal irritation (nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea) and possible liver damage. This material can enter the lungs during swallowing or vomiting and cause lung inflammation and/or damage.; Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure: May aggravate pre-existing respiratory and skin disorders. Chronic Effects: Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause dryness, defatting, and dermatitis.; Carcinogenicity: The ingredients of this product are not classified as carcinogenic by ACGIH or IARC, not regulated as carcinogens by OSHA, and not listed as carcinogens by NTP.; Mutagenicity: There is no substantial evidence of mutagenic potential.

XII. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
