SECTION 6     HEALTH HAZARD DATA

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW:  Vapors irritating to eyes and respiratory tract. Vapors may cause flash fire or
                                      explosion.

Primary Routes of Entry:  Inhalation, Skin Contact, Ingestion, Eye Contact

Effects of Overexposure:

   Inhalation – Headaches, dizziness, nausea, decreased blood pressure, changes in heart rate and
      cyanosis may result from over-exposure to vapor  or skin exposure. Prolonged inhalation may be
      harmful.

   Skin Contact – Prolonged or repeated contact can result in defatting and drying of the skin which may
      result in skin irritation and dermatitis (rash)

   Ingestion – This material maybe harmful or fatal if swallowed. Corrosive and may cause severe and
      permanent damage to mouth, throat and stomach.  

   Eyes – Liquid, aerosols and vapors of this product are irritating and can cause pain, tearing, reddening
      and swelling accompanied by a stinging sensation and/or a feeling like that of fine dust in the eyes.  

Chronic Hazards:  Overexposure may cause nervous system damage. Overexposure may cause lung
   damage. Overexposure may cause kidney damage.

 

SECTION 7     FIRST AID PROCEDURE

Inhalation:  Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
   give oxygen. Get immediate medical attention.

Skin Contact: Immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Remove clothing. Get medical attention immediately.
   Wash clothing separately before reuse.

Ingestion:  Get medical attention immediately. If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting. Give victim a glass
   of water or milk. Call a physician or poison control center immediately. Never give anything by mouth
   to an unconscious person.

Eye Contact:  Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water. Get medical attention if irritation persists.

 

SECTION 8     PREVENTATIVE MEASURES/SAFE HANDLING & USE

Leak and Spill Procedure:  Use absorbent sweeping material (e.g. dry sand or earth) to soak up material.
   Place in a chemical waste container. Dispose as hazardous waste.

Waste Disposal:  Dispose in an approved landfill in accordance with applicable Federal, state and local

   regulations.

Precautions in Handling & Storage:  Wash hands after handling. Store away from heat, sparks, flame.

   Keep from freezing.

 

SECTION 9     CONTROL PROTECTION DATA

Engineering controls:  Local exhaust ventilation may be necessary to control any air contaminants to
   within their TLV’s during the use of this product.

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.

Skin Protection:  Where contact is likely, wear chemical resistant gloves, a chemical suit, rubber boots
   and chemical safety goggles, plus a face shield.

Eye Protection:  Wear safety glasses with side shields or goggles and a face shield.

Other Protective Equipment:  Standard industrial clothing standards should be followed.

Hygienic Practices:  Wash hands before eating. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.
   Use only in a well ventilated area. Follow all MSDS/label precautions even after container is emptied
   because they may retain product residues. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Avoid
   breathing vapors. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing.


KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN!
