FIRST AID - INGESTION: Swallowing less than an ounce will not cause significant harm. For larger amounts, do not induce
vomiting, but give one or two glasses of water to drink and get medical attention. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. If victim is
conscious and alert, give 2 to 4 cupfuls of water or milk. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. Never give anything
by mouth to an unconscious person. Treat symptomatically and supportively.
5. Fire-fighting Measures
Flash Point, °F >200 (Setaflash)
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Alcohol Foam, Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Foam, Water Fog
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: FLASH POINT IS TESTED TO BE GREATER THAN 200 DEGREES F.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES: Water may be used to cool closed containers to prevent buildup of steam. Use water
spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Containers may explode when heated.
6. Accidental Release Measures
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IF MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Dispose of according to local, state (provincial) and federal
regulations. Do not incinerate closed containers. Sweep up gently to avoid dust cloud formation. Neutralize liquid acid spills with
sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3).
7. Handling and Storage
HANDLING: Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash hands before eating. Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid contact with eyes, skin
and clothing. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Avoid contact with water.
STORAGE: Keep from freezing. Keep container closed when not in use.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne
levels below recommended exposure limits. Prevent build-up of vapors by opening all doors and windows to achieve cross-
ventilation. Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility and a safety shower.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must
be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use.
SKIN PROTECTION: Use gloves to prevent prolonged skin contact. Nitrile or Neoprene gloves may afford adequate skin
protection.
EYE PROTECTION: Use safety eyewear designed to protect against splash of liquids. Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or
chemical safety goggles as described by OSHA's eye and face protection regulations in 29 CFR 1910.133 or European Standard
EN166.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Refer to safety supervisor or industrial hygienist for further information regarding personal
protective equipment and its application. Refer to safety supervisor or industrial hygienist for further guidance on types of personal
protective equipment and their applications.
HYGIENIC PRACTICES: Wash thoroughly with soap and water before eating, drinking or smoking. Remove contaminated clothing
immediately and launder before reuse.
