16. OTHER INFORMATION
ANSI LABELING (Z129.1): WARNING! COMBUSTIBLE LIQUID AND VAPOR. WADDED UP AND PRODUCT-SOAKED
PAPER TOWELS OR RAGS THROWN INTO THE TRASH OR LEFT IN A PILE CAN START A FIRE. MAY CAUSE
MODERATE TO SEVERE EYE IRRITATION. CAUSES SKIN AND RESPIRATORY IRRITATION. MAY CAUSE CENTRAL
NERVOUS SYSTEM EFFECTS BY INHALATION OR INGESTION. ASPIRATION HAZARD - INGESTION CAN CAUSE LIFE-
THREATENING LUNG DAMAGE. HARMFUL OR FATAL IF INGESTED. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Avoid
breathing vapor or mists. Avoid contact with skin or clothing. Use only with adequate ventilation. Keep container closed. Wash
thoroughly after handling. Wear gloves and goggles. FIRST-AID: In case of contact, immediately flush skin or eyes for at least 20
minutes with large amounts of water. If inhaled, move to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. If ingested, do not induce vomiting. Get medical attention immediately. IN CASE OF FIRE: Use fog, foam, dry
chemical or carbon dioxide. Liquid will float and may re-ignite on the surface of water. IN CASE OF SPILL: Absorb spill with inert
material and place in suitable container. Refer to Material Safety Data Sheet for additional information on this product.

DEFINITIONS OF TERMS
A large number of abbreviations and acronyms appear on a MSDS. Some of these, which are commonly used, include the following:
EXPOSURE LIMITS IN AIR (continued):
CAS #: This is the Chemical Abstract Service Number that uniquely identifies each constituent.
EXPOSURE LIMITS IN AIR:
DFG MAK Pregnancy Risk Group Classification: Group A: A risk of damage to the developing
embryo or fetus has been unequivocally demonstrated. Exposure of pregnant women can lead to damage
of the developing organism, even when MAK and BAT (Biological Tolerance Value for Working
Materials) values are observed. Group B: Currently available information indicates a risk of damage to
the developing embryo or fetus must be considered to be probable. Damage to the developing organism
cannot be excluded when pregnant women are exposed, even when MAK and BAT values are observed.
Group C: There is no reason to fear a risk of damage to the developing embryo or fetus when MAK and
BAT values are observed. Group D: Classification in one of the groups A-C is not yet possible because,
although the data available may indicate a trend, they are not sufficient for final evaluation.
CEILING LEVEL: The concentration that shall not be exceeded during any part of the working
exposure.
DFG MAK Germ Cell Mutagen Categories: 1: Germ cell mutagens which have been shown to
increase the mutant frequency in the progeny of exposed humans. 2: Germ cell mutagens which have
been shown to increase the mutant frequency in the progeny of exposed mammals. 3A: Substances
which have been shown to induce genetic damage in germ cells of human of animals, or which produce
mutagenic effects in somatic cells of mammals in vivo and have been shown to reach the germ cells in an
active form. B: Substances which are suspected of being germ cell mutagens because of their genotoxic
effects in mammalian somatic cell in vivo; in exceptional cases, substances for which there are no in vivo
data, but which are clearly mutagenic in vitro and structurally related to known in vivo mutagens. 4: Not
applicable (Category 4 carcinogenic substances are those with non-genotoxic mechanisms of action. By
definition, germ cell mutagens are genotoxic. Therefore, a Category 4 for germ cell mutagens cannot
apply. At some time in the future, it is conceivable that a Category 4 could be established for genotoxic
substances with primary targets other than DNA [e.g. purely aneugenic substances] if research results
make this seem sensible.) 5: Germ cell mutagens, the potency of which is considered to be so low that,
provided the MAK value is observed, their contribution to genetic risk for humans is expected not to be
significant.
IDLH-Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health: This level represents a concentration from which
one can escape within 30-minutes without suffering escape-preventing or permanent injury.
LOQ: Limit of Quantitation.
MAK: Federal Republic of Germany Maximum Concentration Values in the workplace.
NE: Not Established. When no exposure guidelines are established, an entry of NE is made for
reference.
NIC: Notice of Intended Change.
NIOSH CEILING: The exposure that shall not be exceeded during any part of the workday. If
instantaneous monitoring is not feasible, the ceiling shall be assumed as a 15-minute TWA exposure
(unless otherwise specified) that shall not be exceeded at any time during a workday.
