PERSONAL PROTECTION
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne
levels below recommended exposure limits. Prevent build-up of vapors by opening all doors and windows to achieve cross-ventilation.
Provide general dilution of local exhaust ventilation in volume and pattern to keep TLV of hazardous ingredients below acceptable
limits.
RESPIRATORY 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: Where contact is likely, wear chemical resistant gloves, a chemical suit, rubber boots and chemical safety
goggles plus a face shield. Use gloves to prevent prolonged skin contact. 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 guidance regarding types of personal
protective equipment and their applications.
HYGIENIC PRACTICES: Wash thoroughly with soap and water before eating, drinking or smoking. Remove contaminated clothing
immediately and launder before reuse.

10. Stability and Reactivity
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Avoid contact with metals.
INCOMPATIBILITY: Incompatible with strong oxidizing agents, strong acids and strong alkalies. Product slowly corrodes copper,
aluminum, zinc, and galvanized surfaces.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION: When heated to decomposition, it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes. Decomposition
produces hydrogen chloride, chlorine and hydrogen gases.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur under normal conditions.
STABILITY: This product is stable under normal storage conditions.
11. Toxicological Information
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - EYE CONTACT: Irritating, and may injure eye tissue if not removed promptly. Substance causes
severe eye irritation. Injury may be permanent.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - SKIN CONTACT: Substance is corrosive. Causes severe skin burns. Corrosive; causes skin
burning. Low hazard for usual industrial handling or commercial handling by trained personnel. Severely irritating; may cause
permanent skin damage.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - INHALATION: High gas, vapor, mist or dust concentrations may be harmful if inhaled. Avoid
breathing fumes, spray, vapors, or mist. Harmful if inhaled. High vapor concentrations are irritating to the eyes, nose, throat and
lungs.
