MSDS
NFPA Class I flammable liquids. Keep containers tightly closed. Isolate from heat, electrical equipment, sparks and
open flame. Contents under pressure. Do not expose to heat or store above 120 ° F.
Engineering Controls: Prevent build-up of vapors by opening all doors and windows to achieve cross-ventilation.
Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels below
recommended exposure limits. Use explosion-proof ventilation equipment.
Respiratory Protection: A NIOSH/MSHA approved air purifying respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or canister
may be permissible under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure
limits.
Protection provided by air purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator if there is
any potential for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or any other circumstances where air
purifying respirators may not provide adequate 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: Nitrile or Neoprene gloves may afford adequate skin protection. Use impervious gloves to prevent
skin contact and absorption of this material through the skin.
Eye Protection: Use safety eyewear designed to protect against splash of liquids.
Other protective equipment: Refer to safety supervisor or industrial hygienist for further information regarding
personal protective equipment and its application.
Hygienic Practices: Wash thoroughly with soap and water before eating, drinking or smoking.
(See section 16 for abbreviation legend)
Conditions To Avoid: Avoid temperatures above 120 ° F. Flammable hydrogen gas will evolve when product comes
in contact with water or damp air. Heat will be generated. The amount of heat generated will depend upon the
volume of material in contact. Avoid all possible sources of ignition.
Incompatibility: Incompatible with strong oxidizing agents, strong acids and strong alkalies.
Hazardous Decomposition: When heated to decomposition, it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes. By open
flame, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
