SECTION 3 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
SUMMARY OF ACUTE HAZARDS Overexposure may cause coughing, shortness of breath, dizziness, central nervous system depression,
intoxication and collapse. It may cause irritation to the respiratory tract and to other mucous membranes.
PRIMARY
ROUTE OF EXPOSURE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS ROUTE(S)
INHALATION: Overexposure may cause coughing, shortness of breath, dizziness, central nervous system Yes
depression, intoxication and collapse. It may cause irritation to the respiratory tract and to
other mucous membranes.
EYE CONTACT: Watering, blurred vision, inflammation, and irritation which can result in corneal injury. Yes
SKIN CONTACT: Frequent or prolonged contact may irritate and cause dermatitis. Low order of toxicity. Yes
INGESTION: Low order of toxicity. Small amounts of the liquid aspirated into the respiratory system during No
ingestion, or from vomiting, may cause bronchiopneumonia or pulmonary edema.
SUMMARY OF CHRONIC HAZARDS: Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause signs of central nervous system depression and respiratory
irritation. Possible liver and kidney damage.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Individuals with pre-existing or chronic diseases of the eyes, skin,
respiratory system, cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal system, liver, or kidneys may have increased susceptibility to excessive exposure.
SECTION 4 FIRST AID MEASURES
INHALATION: If overcome by exposure, remove victim to fresh air immediately. Give oxygen or artificial respiration as needed.
Obtain emergency medical attention. Prompt action is essential.
EYE CONTACT: Immediately flush with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Get prompt medical attention.
SKIN CONTACT: Immediately flush with large amounts of water; use soap if available. Remove contaminated clothing.
INGESTION: If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting. Keep at rest. Get prompt medical attention.
SECTION 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FLASH POINT: 144°F (62°C) SETA CC FLAMMABILITY LIMITS: LEL: 1.8% UEL: 6.9%
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide or water fog.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Wear self-contained full face piece breathing apparatus and other protective clothing. Hazardous
decomposition products possible (see Section 10). Evacuate area. Dike fire control area as run-off may create additional fire hazard and
environmental contamination. Cool heat exposed containers with water. If spill or leak has not ignited, use water spray to disperse vapors.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Combustible. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel along ground or to low spots at
considerable distance to a source of ignition resulting in potential flashback. Burning liquid may float on water. Heat may build up pressure and
rupture closed containers.
SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Remove all sources of ignition. Use absorbent materials to prevent
footing hazard and to contain. Ventilate area with natural or explosion-proof, forced air ventilation. Avoid flushing into sewers, drains, waterways,
and soil. Wear protective clothing and respiratory protection during cleanup. Also, if product is subject to CERCLA reporting (see Section 15) notify
the National Response Center.
SECTION 7 STORAGE AND HANDLING
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING: Keep container closed and upright when not in use. Do not store near heat,
sparks, or open flames. If transferring this material to other containers, ground all containers to avoid static electricity buildup and discharge which
may ignite flammable vapors.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS: Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin or clothing. Empty containers may contain residues and vapors; treat as if
full and observe all products precautions. Do not reuse empty containers. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION (SPECIFY TYPE): In confined, poorly ventilated areas, use NIOSH/MSHA approved air purifying or supplied air
respirators.
