SECTION V – HEALTH HAZARD DATA (CON’T)
SKIN: Exposure may cause mild skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated exposure may dry the skin. Symptoms may
include redness, burning, drying and cracking and skin burns. Pre-existing skin disorders may be aggravated by
exposure to this material. Skin absorption is possible, but harmful effects are not expected from this route of exposure
under normal conditions of handling and use.
INHALATION: Exposure to vapor or mist is possible. 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 typically seen at air concentrations exceeding the recommended exposure limits. Symptoms of exposure may
include: Irritation (nose, throat, respiratory tract), pre-existing lung disorders (e.g., asthma-like conditions) may be
aggravated by exposure to this material and central nervous system depression (dizziness, drowsiness, weakness,
fatigue, nausea, headache, unconsciousness).
INGESTION: Single dose 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, diarrhea) and central nervous system depression (dizziness, drowsiness, weakness, fatigue,
nausea, headache, unconsciousness). This material can enter the lungs during swallowing or vomiting and cause lung
inflammation and/or damage.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
EYE CONTACT: If symptoms develop, move individual away from exposure and into fresh air. Flush eyes gently with
water while holding eyelids apart. If symptoms persist or there is any visual difficulty, seek medical attention.
SKIN CONTACT: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash exposed area with soap and water. If symptoms persist,
seek medical attention. Launder clothing before reuse.
INHALATION: If symptoms develop, immediately move individual away from exposure and into fresh air. Seek
immediate medical attention. Keep person warm and quiet. If person is not breathing, begin artificial respiration. If
breathing is difficult, administer oxygen.
INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting. This material is an aspiration hazard. If individual is drowsy or unconscious,
place on left side with the head down. Seek medical attention. If possible, do not leave individual unattended.
PRIMARY ROUTE(S) OF ENTRY: Inhalation, skin contact, eye contact.
EFFECTS OF CHRONIC OVEREXPOSURE: Based on the available information, this material cannot be classified
with regard to carcinogenicity. This material is not listed as a carcinogen by IARC, NTP or OSHA.
SECTION VI – REACTIVITY DATA
STABILITY: Stable.
INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID): Avoid contact with strong oxidizing agents.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Cannot occur.
SECTION VII – SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED
SMALL SPILL: Absorb liquid on vermiculite, floor absorbent or other absorbent material.
LARGE SPILL: Eliminate all ignition sources (flares, flames, including pilot lights, electrical sparks). Persons not
wearing protective equipment should be excluded from area of spill until clean-up has been completed. Stop spill at
source. Prevent from entering drains, sewers, streams or other bodies of water. Prevent from spreading. If runoff
occurs, notify authorities as required. Pump or vacuum transfer spilled product to clean containers for recovery.
Absorb unrecoverable product. Transfer contaminated absorbent, soil and other materials to containers for disposal.
Prevent run-off to sewers, streams or other bodies of water. If run-off occurs, notify proper authorities as required that
a spill has occurred. 
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD
SMALL SPILL: Dispose of in accordance with all local, state and federal regulations.
LARGE SPILL: Dispose of in accordance with all applicable local, state and federal regulations. 
