3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Emergency Overview: Danger: Poison. Extremely Flammable. Content under pressure. Ingestion of even small amounts of
methyl alcohol can cause blindness and death. This material is an eye and skin irritant. Harmful if
absorbed through the skin. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Gross inhalation overexposure may
cause: respiratory track irritation, kidney damage, blood, liver damage, lung damage and central nervous
system depression.
HMIS Classification: Health: *2 Flammability: 3 Physical Hazard: 2
NFPA Rating: Health: 2 Flammability: 3 Reactivity: 0
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Contact: In case of contact, or suspected contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes
and get medical attention immediately after flushing.
Ingestion: If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting. Call a physician immediately. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person. If vomiting occurs, keep head lower than hips to prevent aspiration.
Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing give artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth. If
breathing is difficult give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Skin Contact: In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes. Get
medical attention. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes, and launder before reuse.

heat or flames.
Protection Of Fire-Fighters:
Special Fire-Fighting Procedures: Wear approved positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing. Vapor may
cause flash fire.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Carbon Dioxide. Carbon Monoxide. Formaldehyde.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal Precautions: Wear appropriate protective clothing and equipment to prevent skin and eye contact.
Spill Procedures: Contain any liquid from leaking containers. Avoid all sources of ignition; heat, sparks and open flames.
Action to be taken if material is released
or spilled:
Do not puncture or incinerate container. Contents under pressure. Wear proper protective equipment as
specified in the protective equipment section. Remove sources of ignition. Leaking containers should be
removed to an isolated, well-ventilated area and transferred to other suitable containers. Wipe, scrape, or
soak up in an inert material and put in a container intended for flammable materials for disposal. Persons
not trained should evacuate area.
Environmental Precautions: Do not allow to enter sanitary drains, sewer or surface and subsurface waters. Keep out of lakes, ponds or
streams.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling and Storage: Caution: Contents under pressure. Keep away from heat and open flame. Use only in a well ventilated
area. Avoid breathing vapors, if exposed to high vapor concentration, leave area at once. Avoid contact
with skin and eyes. Do not puncture, incinerate or store above 120 F. Exposure to high temperatures may
cause bursting. DO NOT store in the passenger compartment of an automobile.
