There are no additional ingredients present which, within the current knowledge of the supplier and in the
concentrations applicable, are classified as hazardous to the health or the environment and hence require reporting
in this section.
Potential Health Effects:
Inhalation: Vapor pressure is very low. Vapor inhalation under ambient conditions is normally not a problem.
Eye Contact: Expected to be minor eye irritant.
Skin Contact: Repeated or prolonged skin contact may cause dermatitis.
Ingestion: Not expected to be acutely toxic.
Chronic: None known.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration, preferably mouth to mouth. If
breathing is difficult give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Eye Contact: Flush eyes with large amounts of water, for at least 15 minutes, until irritation subsides. If irritation
persists, get medical attention.
Skin Contact: No treatment is necessary under ordinary circumstances. Remove contaminated clothing. Wash
contaminated area thoroughly with soap and water. If redness or irritation occurs and persists, seek medical
attention. If product is injected into or under the skin, or into any part of the body, regardless of the appearance of
the wound or its size, the individual should seek immediate medical attention.
Ingestion: If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting. If victim exhibits signs of lung aspiration such as coughing or
chocking, seek immediate medical attention.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 5: FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Flammability: NFPA Class-IIIB combustible material.
Flashpoint (method): Typical 400°F / 204°C (ASTM D-92)
Special Properties: This material can burn but will not readily ignite. This material will release vapors when heated
above the flash point temperature that can ignite when exposed to a source of ignition. In enclosed spaces, heated
vapor can ignite with explosive force. Mists or sprays may burn at temperatures below the flash point.
Autoignition Temperature: No Data Available
Extinguishing Media: Use dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide or water fog. Carbon dioxide and inert gas can
displace oxygen. Use caution when applying carbon dioxide or inert gas in confined spaces.
Fire-Fighting Instructions: Dense smoke may be generated while burning. Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and
other oxides may be generated as products of combustion. Avoid breathing smoke and vapor.
Fire-Fighting Equipment: Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing. Water may be used to
cool containers exposed to heat or flame.
Hazardous Combustion By-products: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, aldehydes, ketones, and combustion
products of sulfur and nitrogen.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spill/Leak Procedures: Remove sources of ignition. Contain any spills with dikes or absorbents to prevent
migration and entry into sewers or streams. Take up small spills with absorbent pads. Large spills may be taken up
with pump or vacuum.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Storage Temperature: Ambient
Storage Pressure: Atmospheric
General: Keep container closed. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame.
